Description
The Digitrax LNWI turns a phone or tablet into a throttle. It bridges your LocoNet to Wi-Fi, supports four devices at once, and works out of the box with no configuration at all - plug it into LocoNet, join the network it creates, open a supported throttle app and drive. For an operating session it means visitors can bring their own throttle in their pocket.

- Four Wi-Fi throttles per LNWI, using supported throttle apps on Android and Apple devices.
- Works out of the box. A single LNWI needs no setup at all - plug it into LocoNet and connect.
- Up to 8 LNWI units per LocoNet for large layouts and clubs, and multiple units resolve their own SSIDs automatically with nothing to configure.
- Optional WPA2 security for operating in public spaces such as train shows, where an open network is not what you want.
- Option switches to customise device settings when you do want to change the defaults.
- Standard LocoNet connection - works alongside the rest of your Digitrax system.

Which apps work with it?
Supported Wi-Fi throttle apps for Android and Apple devices. Check the current app you intend to use against the Digitrax documentation before you buy, since app support changes over time.
How many people can run trains at once?
Four per LNWI. If you need more, add units - up to eight LNWI can share one LocoNet, and they sort out their own network names automatically.
Do I need to configure anything?
For a single unit, no. Plug it into LocoNet, connect your device to the network it creates, and start the app. Option switches are there if you want to change defaults or turn on WPA2 security.
Does this replace my command station?
No. The LNWI is an interface onto an existing LocoNet - you still need a Digitrax command station running the layout.
