Jackson Railcar VMR2001 - RailNet Environmental Lighting Pro - Multi Scale Kit

RailNet Layout Lighting Controller — Pro Kit

Bring your layout to life with lighting that does more than simply turn on and off.

The RailNet Layout Lighting Controller Pro Kit gives you everything you need to get started with intelligent layout lighting. With 48 lighting channels arranged across 8 controllable banks, you can easily add, organize, and control lighting throughout your model railroad. Each bank supports six lighting channels, with brightness and lighting effects configured by bank.

RailNet was designed to make sophisticated layout lighting accessible without making it complicated. Connect your LEDs, open the browser-based interface, and configure your lighting from your phone, tablet, or computer — no dedicated app or DCC system required.

More Than Just On and Off

Real places don't have every light behaving exactly the same way. RailNet lets you create lighting that adds movement, variation, and life to a scene.

With the Layout Lighting Controller, you can create sequences, fades, randomized lighting behaviors, and lighting effects to simulate the activity of a real environment. Use different banks for buildings, streets, industries, yards, scenery, or different areas of your layout.

Create a quiet residential neighborhood where lights change over time, illuminate an industrial complex with its own lighting behavior, add activity to downtown buildings, or create effects that draw attention to a particular scene.

Everything you need to connect the controller, begin experimenting with lighting, and start installing LEDs on your layout:

(1) RailNet ELC Environmental Lighting Controller
(8) ELC Breakout Boards — one for each 6-channel lighting bank
(1) ELC LED Test Board — quickly test and experiment with lighting settings and effects
(4) CAT6 Cables

(1) JRCLED1000 10-Pack — 0402 Warm White LEDs
(1) 12V 2A Power Supply

That's 20 LEDs included, giving you both warm and cool white lighting to start building scenes immediately.

Easy to Use. Powerful When You Want It.

You don't need to understand programming or theatrical lighting systems to use RailNet. The interface is designed around the way model railroaders actually build scenes.

Start simply by connecting lights and setting their brightness. As your layout grows, you can begin adding effects, sequences, timing, and randomized behaviors to create increasingly realistic scenes.

Whether you're lighting a single structure or building an entire illuminated city, RailNet gives you room to grow without forcing you to replace your lighting system as your needs become more sophisticated.

Plug in. Set your lights. Bring your layout to life.
