Page 4: Getting Started
1.2. Accessories Power supply To supply the PZS-2.2 shuttle train control system, the tracks of the shuttle section, the turnout and the connected signals, you need a model railway transformer or a power supply unit with a fixed output voltage. The output voltage must be sufficient to switch the turnout. -
Page 5: Intended Use
PZS-2.2 Turnout For alternating operation with two trains, you must connect a turnout to terminal station A. You can directly connect a turnout with a double-coil drive or a motor-driven turnout. It is not possible to use a turnout with a servo drive. -
Page 6: Function
Optional extensions The shuttle section controlled by the PZS-2.2 can be extended by: Connecting a turnout and a second track at terminal station A. The two trains then run alternately on the shuttle section. ... -
Page 7: Operation On The Shuttle Section
Shuttle operation with two trains The PZS-2.2 automatically switches the turnout at terminal station A so that the two trains can run alternately on the shuttle section. For operation with two locomotives, the maximum speed for ‘clear track’ and the length of the acceleration, braking and stopping phases are set separately for the terminal stations and intermediate stations for each of the two locomotives. -
Page 8: Additional Connection Options
A can be connected in parallel to the turnout at terminal station A. 2.4. Overcurrent protection In the event of an overload or short circuit on the track, the PZS-2.2 automatically switches off to protect the circuit, tracks and vehicles from damage. Before shuttle operation can be... -
Page 9: Connecting The Shuttle Train Control
If an isolating point is bridged (e.g. by displacing the tracks or with metal shavings), the PZS-2.2 will not detect the entry of a train into a section and cannot control the shuttle train operation as intended. If the entry into a terminal station is not detected, the train will not be braked. -

Page 20: Settings And Operation
It is recommended to install stop diodes at the ends of the tracks (→ Section 3.4). After setting up the route sections and connecting them to the PZS-2.2, carry out a test run. This is to check whether all connections have been made correctly and whether the automatic shuttle train operation is running as intended. - Page 21 If you have connected two tracks to terminal station A, a locomotive must be on one of the two tracks when the PZS-2.2 is switched on. The other locomotive can be put on the track at any other point on the layout.

→ Exiting the programming step the PZS-2.2 As soon as the LEDs stop flashing alternately, the settings are saved. Disconnect the PZS-2.2 from the power supply before reconnecting the jumpers for selecting a different programming step or normal operation. Settings and operation | 23... -
Page 24: Programming Step 1: Setting The Maximum Speed
If both locomotives are in the terminal station A when the shuttle train control is switched on, the (blue) locomotive from track 2 (connection 8 of the PZS-2.2) always starts the shuttle run. After saving the settings for the blue locomotive, the shuttle operation with the red locomotive starts automatically, so that the settings for this locomotive can then be changed and saved. -

PZS-2.2 off and then on again. 4.4. Performing a reset To reset the PZS-2.2 to the factory settings, you have to connect the ‘Stop’ input to ground when switching on the shuttle train control (e.g. by pressing and holding a connected button). -
Page 29: Checklist For Troubleshooting And Error Correction
A. The PZS-2.2 has switched off the power for the shuttle section due to an overload or short circuit. The LEDs on the circuit board flash quickly. à Check whether there is a short circuit on the tracks or whether the power consumption of the locomotives and cars is more than 2,000 mA. - Page 30 PZS-2.2 tams elektronik Undesired driving behaviour The locomotive(s) do not drive with the set driving characteristics. Possible causes: When programming, the settings were not saved correctly. à Repeat the programming step(s) for the locomotive and make sure that the locomotive is in shuttle operation when saving.
