DR5088RC DIGIDETECT 30.05.2019 5.1 Adres principle The DR5088RC Railcom® detector has 16 detection points and 1 global point. So, there are 17 detection points in total. Each detection point can be assigned any address within the total range of 2,048 detection points. There are 2 methods to provide the detection points with an address described on the following pages.
Page 30
DR5088RC DIGIDETECT 30.05.2019 Address programme through the button method You can equip the DR5088RC with addresses using the button method. To do so, connect the DR5088RC to your control unit through a LocoNet cable. You must set your control unit to the desired start address by selecting the corresponding DCC change address.
Page 31
DR5088RC DIGIDETECT 30.05.2019 5.3 Randomly programming address via USB You can assign addresses to the DR5088RC completely randomly with the Configuration software. In doing so, you connect the DR5088RC to your PC. Make sure that you connect the DR508888RC without connecting the TRACK INPUT! Once the DR5088RC is connected to the PC, in the configuration software you can select the desired output group.
