The UWT-50 Universal WiFi Throttle from TCS is the new standard in WiFi control for model railroads. This throttle brings a new level of ergonomic comfort and operational convenience to handheld controls. The intuitive interface of the UWT-50 allows you to focus on the important things - operating and enjoying your trains!

Engineered to work with most current DCC systems, and increase adoption and use of LCC, this throttle relies on the robust and universal standard of WiFi communication and leaves outdated control systems behind. The UWT-50 can be conveniently updated over WiFi, meaning you'll always have access to the newest features and your handheld won't quickly pass out of date.

===Text Entry===
The UWT-50 has a text entry interface that is used to fill out text-based fields such as WiFi passwords. Whenever the throttle requires text input, it will display the text entry interface. Within the text entry interface, there are several ways to navigate and manipulate the text.

Potentiometer Version:
1. The left thumbswitch adjusts the position of the highlighted character. Flick up to move the cursor left, flick down to move right.
2. The right thumbswitch moves the cursor up or down one whole line at a time, and can also advance the cursor to other pages of characters. Letters and special characters can all be entered with the text entry interface.
3. The "Shift" key can be used to switch between lowercase and capital letters.
4. Once you have selected a character to enter, use the two-dot button to ‘Add’ that character. 
5. Numerical entries 0-9 are entered by pressing that corresponding number on the keypad.
6. The direction key will move the in-line cursor within your entered text to the left. You can use this feature to fix mistakes within the text without having to delete multiple entries to get back to the mistake. To get back to the right-most position in the text, you must continue going to the left until the cursor "rolls over" back to the right.
7. You can delete a character immediately to the left of the in-line cursor by pressing in on the right thumbswitch.

Encoder Version:
1. The thumbwheel adjusts the position of the highlighted character. Turn the thumbwheel left or right to move the cursor to the character you want to enter.
1. The left thumbswitch can also adjust the position of the highlighted character. Flick up to move the cursor left, flick down to move right.
2. The right thumbswitch moves the cursor up or down one whole line at a time, and can also advance the cursor to other pages of characters. Letters and special characters can all be entered with the text entry interface.
3. The "Shift" key can be used to switch between lowercase and capital letters.
4. Once you have selected a character to enter, use the two-dot button to ‘Add’ that character. 
5. Numerical entries 0-9 are entered by pressing that corresponding number on the keypad.
6. The direction key will move the in-line cursor within your entered text to the left. You can use this feature to fix mistakes within the text without having to delete multiple entries to get back to the mistake. To get back to the right-most position in the text, you must continue going to the left until the cursor "rolls over" back to the right.
7. You can delete a character immediately to the left of the in-line cursor by pressing in on the right thumbswitch.

When you have finished entering text, press the three-dot button or the Enter button to save your text entry.

If you use JMRI with a NCE command station, you can control NCE "Macros" using the UWT-50. For instructions on how to set that up, [[:Universal WiFi Throttle - NCE Macro Control|CLICK HERE]]

==Throttle Reset==
If for any reason the throttle encounters a problem that it cannot recover from, the LED flashlight blinks a diagnostic code, which may be helpful to TCS support. If you encounter this condition, it can be cleared by removing and reinserting the batteries. In the event that removing the batteries from the UWT-50 does not solve the problem, a factory reset may be performed. Navigate to Menu > Settings > Factory Reset (Menu>8>8) to perform a factory reset.

Performing a factory reset will erase all network profiles, user settings, and throttle settings. After performing a factory reset, you will need to re-enter your WiFi connection information as outlined in the section “[[UWT-50#First-Time Setup|First-Time Setup]].”
