Uhlenbrock Elektronik Power 2 63 200 User Manual

Power 2
Intelligent booster
Use with an analogue System
General Description
Power 2 is a small powerful add-on booster with
intelligence for analogue and digital systems.
It can be installed as
Booster for digital controller
•
Control system for conventional DC locomotives
•
along with a hand control or control station
equipped with a LocoNet connector
Auxiliary booster for a further circuit on an
•
analogue layout
Turnout control system using DCC-format in a
•
conventional model railway layout
Power supply for a DAISY digital system.

Usable Cable
Use only original Uhlenbrock LocoNet cables or
so called 'standard LocoNet' cable, or short
circuits can occur when trains are passing
between circuits from different boosters.
LED status indication for Power 2
Power 2 LEDs provide status information for the
device. These are:
LED always on
•
Track power output is switched on.
LED on, and turns off quickly every 2 seconds
•
Track power output is switched off.
LED blinks regularly 4 times every second
•
Overload or short circuit at the track power output
or the output stage has overheated.
LED on, once every second it is turned off
•
momentarily
Overload or short circuit at the LocoNet or DAISY
socket.

Wiring
Track
Connect the track to the connector block
terminals, Track (red) and Track (brown).
Note: If a 2-rail track layout uses a number of
boosters to power number of track sections which
are isolated from one another, it is important that
the system earth (brown) is connected to the
same side of the track throughout the layout.
Transformer
Connect the transformer to screw terminals 16V~
(brown) and 16V~ (yellow)
The output voltage can be adjusted with the
potentiometer from 15V (right extreme) to 20V
(left extreme)
Important: All transformers must be switched on
simultaneously (e.g. using a power board) so that
automatic 'recognition' of the module operates
correctly.
