27.8 DCS51 Shutdown

If the DCS51 shuts down briefly and then comes back on again, it is probably
being run too close to its pre-set current limit of 3.0 Amps. In this case it may
clip or mutilate some outgoing packets of information to keep the track current
within acceptable limits. To solve this problem, reduce the track current load
by running fewer locomotives or setting up additional power districts and
adding more boosters to provide more power for the layout. See Section 25.3.
