The CS-105 is an expertly engineered DCC command station featuring seamless LCC integration and a built-in RailCom® detector. Designed to surpass industry standards in every category, it is the ideal solution for beginners and seasoned layout builders alike who demand high-performance technology for new builds or modern renovations.
As the new gold standard for model railroading, the CS-105 from TCS brings unprecedented operational convenience to your fingertips—especially when paired with the UWT-100 throttle. Standout features like "Soft Start" and customizable short-circuit detection protect your investment by preventing damage to fouled decoders. Skip the technical manuals and use the intuitive configuration interface on your TCS throttle to get back to what matters: running and enjoying your trains.
Your CS-105 system comes ready to use with:
CS-105 Command Station
Power Supply and AC Cord
Two LCC Terminators
Detachable Track Power Connector
Detachable Programming Track Connector
Your power choice should be based on your modeling scale and desired speed:
12V Supply: Recommended for Z, N, and TT scales. It also works for HO layouts.
15V Supply: Best for HO modelers who want maximum top speeds, particularly for bullet trains and high-speed passenger service. Both options are engineered to provide the CS-105 with 5 Amperes of continuous current for 24/7 operation.
The CS-105 packs massive "horsepower" into a compact frame. It features a user-configurable short-circuit algorithm and a genuine 5A continuous output—unlike many competitors, our "5A" rating means it can run at full capacity all day and night. Additionally, a sophisticated packet handler and stack management algorithm allow you to operate up to 260 individual locomotives simultaneously.
If your railroad requires more than 5 Amps, expansion is simple. Use the LCC-enabled B-106 auxiliary booster to increase power while maintaining your RailCom® network. For those with existing equipment, the CS-105 integrates with Lenz, NCE, Digitrax, and more via our optional Booster Adapter (sold separately).
The CS-105 offers versatile connectivity:
Standalone Access Point: Connect WiFi throttles like the UWT-50 directly to the unit.
Network Integration: Connect to an external router to expand your wireless range and throttle limit.
Wired LCC: Use the LCC Can Bus for throttles like the LT-50 and T-50.
Legacy Support: The "Aux Cabs" jack allows you to use hardware from NCE, Ramtraxx, SystemOne, and others.
The CS-105 supports a vast array of control options:
WiFi (On-board AP): Up to 4 LCC WiFi throttles.
WiFi (Router/Client): Up to 10 LCC WiFi throttles.
WiFi (LCC Hub): Up to 250 LCC WiFi throttles via JMRI.
Cab Bus: Up to 62 throttles (NCE, Ramtraxx, SystemOne) via the AUX RJ-11 jack, including ISE ProtoThrottle™ and WifiTrax bridges.
XpressNet™: Up to 31 throttles (Lenz, Roco, ZTC) via the AUX RJ-11 jack (Software v2.0+).
Forget the headaches of complicated engine pairing. The CS-105 features a streamlined consisting interface that lets you create, modify, or dissolve consists in seconds. With advanced, realistic configuration options, your lash-ups will perform with professional-grade accuracy without the steep learning curve.
Configure your entire system via a TCS throttle or JMRI using plain-language menus. No cryptic codes or manual-flipping required. If you have a question, just hit the [?] button on your TCS throttle for an instant, on-screen description of any setting.
