ESU 50220 ECoS Command Station (6A)
ESU ECoS 50220 Command Station – Powerful, Versatile, and User-Friendly
The ESU ECoS 50220 is the second generation of ESU’s highly successful ECoS command station. Combining cutting-edge digital technology with intuitive controls, a clear touchscreen interface, and outstanding versatility, the ECoS offers an exceptional balance of performance and value.
With its large, high-resolution colour display, easy-to-use interface, and robust functionality, the ECoS sets the standard for modern digital command stations. Unlike many alternatives, it can be comfortably operated without a stylus, thanks to its large, clearly marked symbols and menus. Two integrated driving cabs, each with a motor-driven throttle knob and nine function keys, make operating your locomotives straightforward and enjoyable.
Key Features
Multi-Protocol Compatibility
-
Supports DCC, Märklin® Motorola®, Selectrix® and M4 data protocols.
-
Full compatibility with mfx® decoders via M4.
-
Run almost any existing decoder with ease – ECoS unifies four major data protocols in one command station.
Locomotive Control
-
Two integrated cabs with large throttle knobs and nine function keys (with LED indicators).
-
Control up to 31 functions per locomotive via the touchscreen interface.
Accessory & Route Control
-
Operate up to 1,420 turnouts and magnetic accessories (DCC or Motorola®).
-
Graphical route control allows you to group and operate turnouts together.
-
Automatic route activation via feedback contacts or keys, with support for s88 occupancy detectors and ECoSDetector modules.
Shuttle Operation
-
Automated shuttle train control – simply install a rail contact at each end of your track and let the ECoS handle the rest.
Integrated Power & Booster
-
Built-in booster provides ample power for most layouts – often eliminating the need for additional boosters.
-
Ideal for large-scale applications such as Gauge 1 and G layouts.
Advanced Programming
-
Easy-to-use programming track for reading and writing decoder settings.
-
Large colour TFT screen displays clear, full-text information for effortless setup.
-
Pre-installed RailCom® global detector recognises RailCom®-compatible decoders directly on the main track.
-
Feedback of turnout positions possible via SwitchPilot modules.
EcoSlink High-Speed Bus
-
Built-in EcoSlink (CAN-based) system for fast, reliable communication with accessories and expansion modules.
Expandability & Connectivity
-
Integrated network port for connection to a computer.
-
Enables software updates, external control, and future expandability.
Who is the ECoS For?
-
Beginners: A straightforward entry into digital control. The large touchscreen, plain-text menus, and built-in help function make the ECoS remarkably easy to use.
-
Experienced modellers: Ideal for those upgrading from another digital system. With route and shuttle programming, advanced decoder programming, and the EcoSniffer interface, you can integrate existing equipment and expand your control options.
-
Large-scale operators: With its powerful built-in booster, the ECoS is particularly well-suited to Gauge 1 and G layouts, allowing multiple trains to run simultaneously without extra boosters.
