Installing the decoder

6.10.2. Using LEDs

To use LEDs, you must connect a resistor in series with the LED. The resistance
should have a value be- tween 470 ohms and 2.2 ohms. An LED that is operated
without a series resistor will be destroyed immediately! Unlike light bulbs, the
polarity must be observed when LEDs however. The negative terminal (cathode)
is (via resistor) connected to the output of the decoder function, the positive
(anode) should be connected to the common positive (blue cables) are wired
comparable.
Do not forget to switch the corresponding output in the LED mode. This ensures
that all lighting effects are displayed correctly. Please refer to chapter 12.5.

6.10.3. Types of function outputs

Important part of any LokSound the functional are onsausgänge. There all
consumers such as lamps, smoke generators are or servos connected.
Depending on the design bending th LokSound decoder 5 different at many
function outputs. We distinguish two types
A.) Increased function outputs: Right in the decoder FET transistors are built, so
rectly consumers can be connected di- to this function outputs.
. B) logic outputs: These outputs represent only the control signal for the output.
To use these need to be strengthened externally. Most often this is already
happening on the crucial indicator; But ESU also offers suitable adapter
boards.
6.10.3.1. Function outputs of the decoder
ESU is the function outputs "light front," "rear light" and AUX1, AUX2, AUX3 ...
The following table provides information on the next page, which has decoders
which training programs.
Not every output is available at each connector. In some terminals, you can
either choose between input or output, or the type of output (Logikaus- gear,
SUSI or servo) choose (platine locomotive or adapter board) depending on
Externbeschaltung.

6.10.4. Using enhanced function outputs

The procedure depends on how the light and special functions are in the
locomotive:
a) The lamps / functions are shared with your arrival circuit from the locomotive
isolated (ie floating). The prerequisite for this is that the functions of the
locomotive must po- tentialfrei, that is except for the function outputs have
no further electrically conductive connections. The voltage present at the
function outputs in this connection
