Summary of Contents for NCE AR10

  • Page 1 Adjustable short circuit response time  05240233 05240233 This book, schematics and artwork copyright 2020 NCE Corp., Webster, NY 14580 Warning: This product contains chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
  • Page 2 DCC systems. It will not work with any power system other than DCC. Mechanical Installation: The AR10 has 4 mounting holes that can be used to mount it to a convenient place on your layout. We recommend using #4 x 3/4” round orpan head screws. Do not over tighten the screws.
  • Page 3 Once shut down the AR10 will try to restore power about once every 2 seconds. If there is still a short the AR10 will kill the power again, until the short is removed.
  • Page 4 SHORT - This red LED is off under normal operating conditions. It will light steadily (and both green LEDs will be off) when the AR10 has removed power to the loop because it has detected a short circuit or overload condition. The AR10 will attempt to restore power to the track every 2 seconds[default setting] until the short circuit condition is corrected.
  • Page 5 CV131 - Manual reset enable. If CV131 is set to 0 the manual reset is disabled and the AR10 will automatically try to turn on track power after a short circuit. If CV131 is set to 1 the AR10 will not automatically restore track power after a short circuit until a connection (usually with a pushbutton) is made between he RST terminals of the four position terminal strip.
  • Page 6 The custom startup table provides a programmable method to pulse the track power on and off several times before the AR10 tests for over current. You can program the on and off times in increments of 1mS. Generally you will not use this table with most boosters but it may be useful with a booster that has weak startup capability.
