Dear List,
I have an original Aristocraft Train Engineer, which operates fine and works well for me as a quadriplegic (I can use a stylus strapped to my hand to press the control buttons). My question is whether the A through F function buttons on the Train Engineer can be used to control basic DCC decoder functions such as horn and bell, as on a SoundTrax decoder installed in a 2 rail Atlas SW-9? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Merry Christmas.

I don't think so.
I also have one of those systems (which I really like!), but I believe they were designed strictly to run engines, are a "closed system" in and of itself, and not do not support any type of "bells and whistles" feature(s).
I may be wrong, and hope someone with more knowledge than I will chime in here...
Merry Christmas to you as well.

Thank you Mark.
Hi Michael, Mark is correct. There is a new version of the Train Engineer called the Revolution. It supports DCC. For more info go to www.revolectronics.com.
I can be contacted at my personal email.

Thanks Don.
Don, I think there is a typo in your link, it doesn't work for me. This is probably the one you meant, for Jersey Engr: https://www.revoelectronics.com/
