The Smart Screen can display multiple screens which can be triggered by a range of different inputs including switches, DCC commands and even Track Sensors which can be used to show a different screen as a train passes over it.... ‘Platform 1: MyTown’......

* Stop Press: Now also includes a real time clock display option! *

Everything is contained in the Smart Screen so no complicated wiring or circuit boards - just connect 2 wires to a power source and go! Suitable fine wire is also included with each screen (which we can solder onto the screen for you free of charge if you wish - just add a note as you checkout).

The dimensions are: 31mm wide, 9.5mm high, 4.5mm deep. 

Sometimes you may want to display several words or list the various stations your train is stopping at, but they wouldn’t normally fit on the screen. However Smart Screen is able to display long messages by scrolling them along the screen automatically.... just like the real thing!

You can also choose to display the real time on the top right hand corner of the screen.

Not just for trains...

Displays are now part of everyday life, so Smart Screens can be used on your layout in places other than trains and stations. They can help bring roads to life with changing screens and if you have a Faller Car system or similar you can automate the screens using magnetic reed switches under the road. You could also t them in buses or bus stops, or use them in a Stadium to make your dream team scores come true!

Smart Screens come preloaded with a demo display, but you can fully customise your own messages and screens. Although once set up the screen can be powered from DCC or DC, you need to use a DCC controller to set up your own screen texts and inputs. This is fully explained in the instructions and most DCC controllers will work, although controllers with easy to use Function commands are best. We can also pre-program them with your own messages if you complete a special programming form - see the SD1P and SD2P options.

You can have up to 10 different message screens, each with a stationary top line which can include a real time clock, and the bottom line which can have up to 137 characters which automatically scroll once the line is wider than the screen.
