HM7000 FAQs

View all

I already own a DCC ready locomotive, what do I need to upgrade?

You can upgrade your DCC Ready locomotive by fitting the correct Hornby decoder to suit your model. If you are still unsure which decoder you need, please get in touch with Hornby Customer Care prior to making your purchase and they will be happy to offer advice.

How will HM7000 improve my model railway?

The Hornby HM7000 system is a revolutionary step forward in digital model railway control. Bluetooth® technology enables fast, wireless, and consistent control of locomotives. For example, with HM7000 you can change a locomotive's settings while running on the track, which is impossible with other DCC systems. Furthermore, it will be possible in the future with app updates to add additional features to the locomotive’s decoder as the system progresses.

Why is there more than one decoder?

The type of decoder you need depends on the locomotive. Hornby produces 6, 8, 18 and 21 pin decoders. Check your model for the correct decoder required or contact Hornby Customer Care if in doubt.
