FD-R Basic.3
Checking the package contents
Please make sure that your package contains:
one or five function decoders, depending on the version with or
without soldered connecting wires.
For mounting and connecting the decoder you need:

a soldering iron with temperature control and a thin tip and a deposit
stand or a controlled soldering station

a scraper, rag or sponge

a heat-resistant pad

a small pair of side cutters and wire strippers

tweezers and flat-nose pliers if necessary

electronic solder (preferably 0.5 to 0.8 mm diameter)
In order to connect a decoder without soldered connecting wires you
will also need wire. Recommended cross sections:

> 0,04 mm² for the connections to the function outputs,

> 0,05 mm² for the connections to the current collectors or slider
To bridge short current interruptions you need:

an electrolytic capacitor with a capacity of 100 to 470 µF and a proof
voltage of minimum 25 V or

a buffer circuit, e.g.
USV-mini 0.47 (capacity 0.47 F, item no. 70-02215 or 70-02216)
USV mini 1.0 (capacity 1.0 F, item no. 70-02225 or 70-02226)
USV mini 1.5 (capacity 1.5 F, item no 70-02235 or 70-02236).
To trigger switching operations automatically, you need:

a reed contact 1 x closing contact (e.g. item-no. 84-53110) or

a Hall-sensor (e.g. item-no. 84-53210)

permanent magnets (e.g. neodymium magnets Ø 3mm, thickness
= 2 mm, item-no. 84-53990)
