$100
Massoth 8413502 DCC Pulsed Smoke Generator - Rectangular Version New for 2022. The pulsed high-performance smoke generator (New Item 2022) can be used autonomously in steam or diesel operation mode. Due to the direct track reception and integrated software decoder, control by digital address via the digital system is possible at any time, a separate decoder is no longer required. The integrated decoder takes over all necessary evaluations, a SUSI interface is therefore no longer available. By means of clock generator and bus connection for MASSOTH/LGB, the smoke generator can be integrated into many existing locomotives. Ask for a copy of my instructions on wiring this Smoker to Massoth XLS and ESU 5XL Sound Decoders. Size: 54x42x30mm
$90
Massoth 8413102 DC Analog Pulsed Smoke Generator for LGB Locomotives - New Version for 2022. This smoke generator is powered by connecting to track power input in your LGB locomotive. The Dip Switches can be set to either Steam (2 or 4 pulses/wheel revolution) or Diesel. In steam mode, the puffs of smoke are synchronized with the locomotive's wheels rotation by use of either a hall sensor installed into the motor block or by the chuff simulation setting in Massoth XLS Sound Decoders or ESU 5XL Sound Decoders. Size: 54x42x30mm

$2 each; $10 - 20 Pack; $40.00 - 20 Pack
Massoth 8100111 Solid Brass Track Clamps. The connector has now been revised and, with unchanged product characteristics, is being manufactured in an optimized shape as rail connector 2023, made of the previous high-quality brass alloy with the best current conductivity. It thus meets many customer requirements and, with its more elegant design, is much less conspicuous when installed in the track. State-of-the-art production processes make it possible to offer the new variant at an unchanged favorable price despite increased raw material prices. Great importance was also attached to an environmentally friendly manufacturing process without lubricants and chemical post-treatment. In addition to the currently available 19mm variant, all other sizes will be successively converted. The scope of delivery includes high-quality stainless steel screws for a force-fit and secure mechanical connection and soldering lugs for an almost invisible current feed.

Measuring PWM Voltage - Manufacturer's Technical Response
The RRampmeter should accurately measure a PWM waveform. After all, DCC is a form of PWM. However, the RRampmeter reads the TOTAL RMS value of the waveform, DC + AC. Your Fluke set to read AC blocks DC and is only measuring the AC component. Since the lights and smoke unit are going to respond to the DC value of the PWM (and I assume the PWM is on/off, so there is a DC component), you should measure these outputs with the Fluke meter set to DC. One other thing to keep in mind is that the RRampmeter is designed to power itself from the input, so on a low power circuit such as a light output, the added load may affect the reading. Make sure you are using the battery for power and not the input signal. Even with the battery, the RRampmeter will load the circuit more than the Fluke (25.4K vs 10 Meg). For this reason, the Fluke set to read DC might be the better choice.
