UR-15
Remote Control
Family owned since 1995
Thank you for choosing the finest model railroad control equipment on the market.
We at Bridgewerks take great pride in designing the finest equipment and building it to
the highest standards possible.
Installation:
The antenna must be screwed into the connector on the top of the receiver unit.
Included in the box with the UR-15 is a cable with a pair of banana connectors at
each end. This is used to connect the UR-15 to the host power controller. Plug one
end of the cable into the terminals labelled ‘Input’ making sure that the red side of the
plug goes into the red side of the socket. Plug the other end of the cable into the ac-
cessory power terminals on the back of your power controller – again, making sure to
connect red to red/black to black.
Once the UR-15 is connected to the host power controller, you can connect the UR-15
to the track. When you power on your host controller, if the power connection is
backwards, the red light on the top of the controller will blink. If this happens, turn off the
host controller and turn the banana plug around to fix the polarity.
The remote has four buttons on it. There is a band which can cover three of the buttons
so that the transmitter can easily be kept in your pocket without accidentally hitting one
of the buttons. The green button on the remote will increase the speed of the
locomotive. The yellow button will decrease the speed of the train. The blue button
reverses direction of the train and the red button is an emergency stop. If the red button
is pressed, a red light on the UR-15 will blink and all power to the track will be cut.
Pressing the red button again will reset the emergency stop.
Wire: It is recommended that you use heavy gauge wire to connect the UR-15 to the
track. For distances up to 25 ft., you should use a minimum of 12-gauge wire; for dis-
tances over 25 ft., use 10- gauge wire. Although the track is similar to heavy gauge
wire, if you use 100 ft. or more of track it is a good idea to run wire to several areas of
your track from the UR-15. This will keep the voltage loss to a minimum and help to
equalize the distribution of voltage on the track. The track couplers tend to have high
resistance joints, resulting in voltage loss on certain areas of the track. The “slider” type
track couplers have higher resistance than fixed couplers with screws; however, where
there are extreme temperatures, you must use the “slider” type junctions to compensate
for the variance in track length at different temperatures. This is particularly important in
areas that reach over 100 degrees in summer sun freezing temperatures in winter. Al-
ways remember, wire heavier than required is not a problem; too light wire will reduce
power to the track. If you must use an extension cord, be sure it is the 3 conductor type;
this will keep the case grounded for safety.
This controller is built for use with outdoor railroads; HOWEVER, it is not
made waterproof and, as any electronic equipment, should not be left out-
doors when not in use. Simply unplug the banana jacks and carry the unit
indoors.
If you have any questions, please feel free to call us; we will be happy to help you.
