T1

Decoder
SKU: 1021
    Description
    IMPORTANT NOTE: The T1 has reached its End Of Life. The T1 is being phased out and replaced by the T4 which has more features and lighting outputs.

    The T1 is a multi-purpose HO-scale decoder. This decoder may be hard-wired or plugged directly into any locomotive with a 9-pin JST plug. This decoder is also available with adapter harnesses with 8-pin NMRA plugs installed. See the "Variants" page for more options.

    Note: The Green and Purple wires on this decoder are not used. The T1 is a 2-function decoder, but still uses the 9-pin JST which includes the Green and Purple wires.

    Additional Note: These decoders are a popular choice for use on turntables or other applications where precise motor control is necessary. The ability to set up button-controlled BEMF allows you to automatically and accurately step your turntable. See our programming guides in the literature section for more information on Button-controlled BEMF.
