Confi guration Step-by-step
1. Select the suitable operating mode from the table.
2. Select the accessory address you wish to assign to the fi rst accessory.
3. Determine the required programming command.
In order to set other accessory addresses than 1 through 4, you have to
add an offset to the address. This offset is determined as follows:
▪ Example 1:
Take the programming command "3
" from the table.
The decoder shall be programmed to the addresses 201 through 204.
- Deduct 1 from desired address: 201 - 1 = 200
- Add the address of the programming command: 200 + 3 = 203
- Required command: "203
"
▪ Example 2:
Programming command as per the manual: "4
The decoder shall be programmed to the addresses 17 through 24.
17 - 1 + 4 = 20  Programming command "20
4. Press the programming button Prog of the decoder and hold it down
for about one second, until the LED lights up continuously. Now release
the button again. The LED remains lit indicating that the decoder has
switched over from normal operating mode into programming mode.
Terminate the programming mode by pressing the button briefl y.
5. Send the determined programming command with your command station.
6. Successful programming is indicated by the extinguishing LED. The
decoder changes over into the newly set operating mode.
Now you can change the operating mode, the addresses as well as the
other properties of the function outputs (e.g. dimming or blinking) for
each connected device by CV programming.

The operating mode „Turnouts in continuous mode" is suitable for turnout
drives with end position contact. Other types of turnouts must be controlled
in pulse mode. In most cases the shortest pulse duration is adequate.
Simply set a longer pulse duration should the turnout not work reliably.
After programming each turnout can be controlled with a push button under
the following accessory address:
You may change the duration of the switch pulse with the programming
command. Then you can simultaneously set the time with the CVs 3 through
6 for two function outputs each from A0 through A7 to a maximum of
2.55 seconds. In CV117/CV116 you can change the switching time for A0
independent of the time set for A1 (CV127/CV126). (CV137/CV136 for A2,
and so forth up to CV277/CV276 for A15). The maximum possible time here
A7
is just under 11 minutes.
In soft start mode the revs of the motor will be accelerated resp. decele-
rated in a quarter second. In this mode one can also control two-aspect
block signals (red/green). The signal lamps of a block signal are wired to
of a output group A0/A1 through A6/A7 of the
the terminals
and
decoder. The common return wire of the signal must be wired to one of the
T4
blue terminals
.

The duration of the run up can be changed in the confi guration variables

CV114 for A0, CV124 for A1, CV134 for A2 and so forth. The switch-off time

is determined by the setting of CV115 for A0, CV125 for A1, CV135 for A2
16
and so forth.
