Page 3: Introduction
Introduction These instructions refer to the BiDiB / DCC decoder "LightControl " from OpenDCC and Fichtelbahn. The decoder gets on not as a commercial ready product, but is a development aid or kit for technically interested railroad modeler for the own construction. - Page 4 The picture shows a Unique-ID on a BiDiBus Device. All SMD equipped BiDiB assemblies bought from the Fichtelbahn shop and are on the BiDiBus will be delivered with an installed BiDiB-serialnumber. This srialnumber is part of the unique-ID and therefore the complete unique ID is printed at the back side of the cuircuit.
- Page 5 Why should I stick on this number? For what could I use this information? All tools, however, also the actual PC- hostprogramms communicate and administer the assemblies with this number. Now there is no more "address DCC XX", but the cmmand is sent into the knots *Unique-ID X* and his port.
- Page 6 2. You want to use the available (printed) Unique-ID again because it was already deposited in the rail trackplans of my PC programms. In this case contact Fichtelbahn-Support with the information of the printed Unique-ID number and the accompanying hardware-serialnumber.

Page 9: Construction Description Of The Smd Equipped Board
2. Construction description of the SMD equipped board: For the construction of the SMD of equipped board is not necessary much. A soldering iron, with fine soldering tip, tin-solder and an ohm metre. Step 1: the power supply As the first we equip on the top of the board the 3-pole connection clip X2. -
Page 10: Step 2: „Function Test Bootloader
With a Hotplug function or an extensive BiDiBus wiring (e.g., gymnasium) we recommend one more protective diode SM712 with to equip (not inevitably by small arrangements). (available at the Fichtelbahn-Shop) Manual to build the SMD pre fitted Hardware manual-Version V1.4-en... -
Page 11: Step 4: 16 Power Outputs And 8 Inputs
step 4: 16 Power outputs and 8 inputs These 16 exits are suited for lighting effects with light bulbs, also switch from bigger load max. to 300 mA per output or for magnet articles. For this the tub plugs SV2 and SV1 must be soldered for the power outputs and SV5 for 8 inputs. -
Page 12: Step 6: 4X Servo-Outputs
step 6: 4x servo-outputs: The 4 servo ports can be used for raiload effects also for servo railroad switches. To the usage of this function still five pin headers JP3, JP4, JP5, JP6 and JP9 / J12 must be equipped on the top. CAUTION: Short circuit danger: With JP9 / JP12 5 V of Servo care can be impaled externally or 5 V of supply be measured. -
Page 13: The Firmware Update
3. The firmware update With the SMD equipped LightControl we have this already done for you! The LightControl is completely ready for use with the actual Bootloader, the actual firmware and the printed serialnumber. The chapter „firmware update“ describes only the steps for the case of an update if a new firmware is available for the LightControl! In other cases (first introduction if still no firmware was uploaded)please read the programming steps in the construction instructions of the soldering kit. - Page 14 Step 1: The LightControl is connected to the care tension and is also connected to the BiDiBus. Step 2: Open the BiDiB-Wizard tool and in the knot list the serialnumber of the interface (master GBMboost) and the LightControl should be visible. Step 3: With the right mouse key click on the serialnumber of the LightControl and select in the pop-up menu the...
