English Booster-Link 1. Getting started How to use this manual This manual gives step-by-step instructions for safe and correct assembly of the kit and fitting and connecting of the ready-built module, and operation. Before you start, we advise you to read the whole manual, particularly the chapter on safety instructions and the FAQ chapter. You will then know where to take care and how to prevent mistakes which take a lot of effort to correct.
Booster-Link English Checking the package contents Please make sure that your package contains: one kit, containing the components listed in the parts list and one PCB, one ready-built module or one complete unit (ready-built module in a housing), one manual. Required materials For assembling the kit you need: s el ek tro ni k an electronic soldering iron (max.
English Booster-Link impermissibly high humidity, condensation build up can cause serious injury due to electrical shock. Take the following precautions to prevent this danger: Never perform wiring on a powered module. Assembling and mounting the kit should only be done in closed, k ni tro el ek clean, dry rooms. Beware of humidity. Only use low power for this module as described in this manual and only use certified transformers.
Booster-Link English Dangerous environments A working area that is too small or cramped is unsuitable and can cause accidents, fires and injury. Prevent this by working in a clean, dry room with enough freedom of movement. Other dangers Children can cause any of the accidents mentioned above because they are inattentive and not responsible enough. Children under the age of 14 should not be allowed to work with this kit or the ready-built module.
English Booster-Link Observe correct polarity orientation of semi-conductors, LEDs tro ta m s el ek ni k electrolytic capacitors and integrated circuits before soldering and ensure that the solder time does not exceed 5 seconds, otherwise components can be damaged. Apply the soldering tip to the soldering spot in such a way that the part and the soldering eye are heated at the same time. Simultaneously add solder (not too much). As soon as the solder becomes liquid take it away.
Booster-Link English 4. Operation overview Standard boosters used in digital model railway layouts controlled by mfx®-central units (e.g. mobile station or central station of Maerklin**), do not allow the transfer of the mfx®-feed back data across the isolation between the booster sections. For that reason vehicles that are in booster sections supplied by standard boosters cannot log in at the central unit.
English Booster-Link 6. Assembling the Booster-Link You can skip this part if you have purchased a ready-built module or device. Preparation Put the sorted components in front of you on your workbench.
Booster-Link English Zener diodes Zener diodes are used for limiting voltages. In contrast to "normal" diodes they are not destroyed when the limit voltage is exceeded. Capacitors el ek Electrolytic capacitors ni Number 102 104 tro Value 1 nF 100 nF k Among other things capacitors are used for filtering interference voltages or as frequency determining parts. Ceramic capacitors are not polarized, for that reason their mounting orientation is of no importance.
English Booster-Link Integrated circuits (ICs) Depending on the type, ICs fulfil various tasks. They are polarized and therefore have to be mounted in a certain direction. The most common housing form is the so-called "DIL"-housing, from which 4, 6, 8, 14, 16, 18 or more "legs" (pins) are arranged along the long sides. The mounting orientation is shown by a semicircular or circular marking at the end of the housing, which is also shown on the PCB layout.
Booster-Link ! English Caution: Diodes, ICs, electrolytic capacitors and transistors must be placed in the right direction! If you solder them the wrong way the affected parts can be damaged when you connect the power supply. In the worst case the whole circuit can be damaged. In any case, a wrongly connected part will not function. Finally, solder in the terminal strip and insert the ICs into the soldered IC-socket.
English Booster-Link 7. Connecting the Booster-Link Required number of Booster-Links For each external booster supplying the mfx® layout you need one Booster-Link. In case one external booster supplies several booster sections one Booster-Link is sufficient. Performing the booster sectionings k Isolate the centre conductor at the sectioning between the booster sections (if not already done). Please note: The outer conductors must not be isolated.
Booster-Link English Possible Cause: The decoder does not send the mfx® feed back data to the central unit. Check the decoder by setting the vehicle on to a rail section supplied by the booster integrated into the mfx® central unit.
