Caution:
Use a soldering iron with a small tapered point and max. 30 Watt to
make the solder bridges. Take special care to avoid short circuits. If
necessary, check the solder bridges with a magnifiying glass to make
sure that the solder bridges are closed correctly and solder has not
short-circuited adjacent components or connections.
Operation
Emergency stop during active acceleration and brake delay
An emergency stop during acceleration and brake delay can be
performed from the central unit by changing the direction of travel.
Improvement of the driving characteristics
Locomotives with especially high current consumption or track sections
with bad contacts (e.g. some types of points) may give an
unsatisfactory performance after the mounting of the locomotive
decoder. You can improve the locomotive performance by soldering a
capacitor 220 µF / > 25 V in parallel to the capacitor C2 (rear of the
locomotive decoder, see fig. 4 or 5).
The settings cannot be saved by the decoder and are lost after a power
supply interruption of a certain length. When the interruption is only short,
the capacitor C1 maintains the voltage and the settings are kept. You can
lengthen this period of time by soldering a capacitor 47 µF / > 6,3 V in
parallel to the capacitor C1 (rear of the locomotive decoder, see fig. 4 or 5).
FAQ
§ Parts are getting too hot and/or start to smoke.
Disconnect the system from the mains immediately!
Possible cause: one or more connections are soldered incorrectly.
à Check the connections.
