    WD-34 | WD-34.2 | WD-34.M 4. Operation overview The turnout decoders WD-34, WD-34.2 and WD-34.M are designed to control accessories, activated by a short switching impulse. So, it is possible to switch as well accessories with as without tape shut-off.
  • Page 11 (WD-34) or a push-button switch (WD-34.2 and WD-34.M). When using a Motorola central unit the (accessory) decoder address has to be set with a programming jumper (WD-34) or a push-button switch (WD-34.2 and WD-34.M). Changing the other decoder´s features or assigning a locomotive address is neither necessary nor possible in layouts run in Motorola format only.
  • Page 12 WD-34 | WD-34.2 | WD-34.M Feedback of a wrong position of turnouts (WD-34.2 only) After the set switching time ("on-time"), the turnout decoder WD-34.2 compares the actual position of turnouts with limit stop with the position it should have according to the digital commands. If the position does not match, e.g.
