Connecting the decoder to your digital model
railway layout:
• Attention: Before starting any installation work switch off
the supply voltage to the digital installation by disconnect
all transformer power plugs of the main supply.
The decoder receives the digital information via the clamp KL2.
Connect the clamp with a rail or even better connect the clamp
directly to the command station or to a booster assuring
supply of digital information free from any interference.
Pay attention to the mark at clamp KL2. The color markings
'Black/Schwarz' and 'Red/Rot' next to the clamp are used for
Arnold-Digital (old) and Märklin-Digital=.
Other systems uses the letters 'J' and 'K'.
If you use the decoder with Märklin Digital~ components or
with Intellibox you have to connect the digital wires to 'red/rot'
and 'brown/braun'.
The decoder receives the power supply via the two poles clamp
KL1. Voltage in the range of 12 to 18V~ is acceptable (alternate
current output of a model railway transformer) or 15...24 V=
(direct current from a switched mode power supply).
If you do not want to supply power to the decoder M-DEC from
an external transformer you can connect the clamp KL1 to
KL2 with two wires. In this case the decoder will get the power
supply complete from the digital system.

Programming the decoder address:

To program the decoder address a motor driven turnout has to
be connected to the output 1 (clamp KL9) of the decoder.
•
Switch on the power supply of your model railway.
•
Depress the programming key S1. Do not touch the
integrated circuits of the pc-board because any electrostatic
discharge can destroy the IC`s.
can be
•
The turnout drive connected to output 1 will now move a little
every 1.5 seconds. This indicates that the decoder is in the
programming mode.
•
Is the motor not moving it is possible that the motor drive
contains directional diodes. In this case switch off the power
supply and turn around the two connection wires on output 1.
After switching power on the turnout drive should move of a
1.5 second interval.
•
Depress now one key of the key group to be assigned to the
decoder. For programming the decoder address you can also
release a turnout switch signal via a personal computer.
