  • Page 7: Decoder-Installation

    Decoder-Installation Preparation Check if the locomotive is in perfect running order electrically and mechanically, prior to any mounting work. Defects and dirt must be eliminated first. Pay attention to the instructions of the locomotive producer. Only locomotives running smoothly in analogue mode, should be equipped with a digital decoder. New locomotives should be run in at least 30 minutes in each direction of travel.

  • Page 8: Installation

    If the locomotive is not equipped with an interface jack, the decoder must be wired up individually. For this purpose you should use decoder with flexible wires (DHP163 respectively DHP253). The decoder DHP160 respectively DHP250 should be used by experienced model railroaders only as the connection wires must be soldered directly onto the decoder.
  • Page 9 Connect the decoder wires accordingly to the following diagram: red wire with the right track wire (G1) black wire with the left track wire (G2) orange wire with the motor wire, which was connected to the right track (M1) gray wire with the motor wire, which was connected to the left track (M2) white wire with the front light (LV)
  • Page 10 Function outputs: The function outputs AUX1, AUX2, AUX3 and AUX4 (only if available) are on the edge of the decoder and must be connected to the consumers with individual wires (see Illustration, page 2). Notice: In case of an incorrect wiring of motor, lighting and track, there is no need to solder off the wires as the assignment can be interchanged electronically by programming (see adjustment options of the respective operating system).

  • Page 13 Reading out the extended characteristic values is executed by the entry of the character sequence 00–111 and a subsequently push on the programming key. Writing of the extended characteristic values is executed by the entry of the character sequence 00=VAI and a subsequently push on the programming key.

  • Page 14: Operation

    Operation Put the locomotive on the programming track and read out the programming parameters of the decoder. The default value should be 01-542. Program the desired locomotive address and start running the locomotive keeping the other parameter values. After the first check you can vary the parameters of the engine freely according to your requirements.

    F4 should activate the shunting gear and switch on the outputs LV and LR: LV=1, LR=2, RG=128: so you must enter the value 131 in CV38 | par066. Notice: AUX4, AUX3 and AUX2 are not available in the decoder DHP160. Timer function (CV 117 - 120, par076 - 079)
  • Page 32 Preclusion (CV113 - 116, par024 - 027) This function gives you the option to deactivate a function associated to an output partly (e.g. drivers cab light in front dark), though this output is switched on (e.g. LV by function F0). Example: A typical situation where to apply this function is the push-pull operation.
