    Hello I'm a rookie in DCC and electronics and I want to give a try to the DCC++ project.

    Can anyone help me in understanding some feature?

    First:
    I haven't understood how to connect a throttle to the DCC++ Base station. With other projects I see some Xpressnet port to connect, fore example, a multimouse... Is there some hardware that I can build to connect throttles as the Roco one?

    Second:
    I haven't understood how to connect infrared or occupancy sensors. In the other DCC projects I've seen on the Internet, there are S88 connected to the bus. What Have I to do here?

    Third:
    What kind of booster can i build to connect to the DCC++ Base station? Is there any project I can simply use to build a 4-5 Ampere booster and some guide on how to connect it?

    Last:
    Is there some Railcom compatibility in the DCC++?

    Thank you very much to everyone that will give an help.

    Carlo
