1.1. Contents of the package Switching decoder SD-34: 1 kit SD-34 (item no. 43-01345-01), containing the components listed in the parts list ( section 3.4.) and one PCB or 1 ready-built and tested circuit board SD-34 (item no. 43-01346-01) or 1 switching decoder SD-34 in housing (item no.
SD-34 | SD-34.2 1.3. Intended use The switching decoder is intended for use in model construction, especially in model railway layouts, according to the specifications in the manual. Any other use is not in accordance with the intended use and will result in the loss of the warranty claim. Intended use also includes reading, understanding and following all parts of the instructions.
SD-34.2 instead of turnout addresses. The 4 outputs of the decoder are switched via the function keys F1 to F4 then. This allows to use the SD-34.2 in combination with DCC control units not designed for controlling turnout addresses. Note: The changeover to the use of locomotive addresses is only possible with a DCC control unit.

(turnout commands). Setting the address with the jumper or push-button With Motorola central units the address can be set via the programming jumper (SD-34) or the programming push-button (SD-34.2) only. When using DCC central units it is often easier to set the address via the programming jumper / push-button than to program it via CV.
