English PZS-3 How to use this manual This manual gives step-by-step instructions for safe and correct assembly of the kit and fitting of the ready-built module, and operation. Before you start, we advise you to read the whole manual, particularly the chapter on safety instructions and the FAQ chapter. You will then know where to take care and how to prevent mistakes which take a lot of effort to correct. Keep this manual safely so that you can solve problems in the future.
PZS-3 English Safety instructions Mechanical hazards Cut wires can have sharp ends and can cause serious injuries. Watch out for sharp edges when you pick up the PCB. Visibly damaged parts can cause unpredictable danger. Do not use damaged parts: recycle and replace them with new ones.
English PZS-3 Fire risk Touching flammable material with a hot soldering iron can cause fire, which can result in injury or death through burns or suffocation. Connect your soldering iron or soldering station only when actually needed. Always keep the soldering iron away from inflammable materials. Use a suitable soldering iron stand. Never leave a hot soldering iron or station unattended. Thermal danger A hot soldering iron or liquid solder accidentally touching your skin can cause skin burns.
PZS-3 English EMC declaration This product is developed and tested in accordance with the European standards EN 55014-1 and EN 61000-6-3 and meets the EC - directive 2004/108/EG and legal requirements. To guarantee the electromagnetic tolerance in operation you must take the following precautions: § Connect the transformer only to an approved mains socket installed by an authorised electrician.
English PZS-3 Independent of the automatically running shuttle-train traffic between the terminus sections (and the two stops), extra halts can be incorporated with external circuits at any time and place. The traffic § between the terminus stations § between the terminus stations and the stops § between the terminus stations, the stops and/or the extra halts always runs in four phases: acceleration, normal speed, braking and halt.
PZS-3 English The halt at the terminus stations, the stops and the extra halts can be prolonged by connecting the corresponding input of the module to earth. Then the train stops at the station, it remains still as long as the input is connected to earth (at least so long as programmed for the particular halt). This allows intervention in the automatic shuttle-train traffic via a switch or an external extra circuit.
English PZS-3 Checking the package contents Check the contents of the package for completeness immediately after unpacking: § one kit, containing the components listed in the parts list (see page I.1) and one PCB or § one ready-built module, § one manual. Required tools and consumables Make sure you have the following tools, equipment and materials ready for use: § § § § § § an electronic soldering iron (max.
PZS-3 English chapter Safety instructions. If you have had training in soldering you can skip this chapter. § Use a small soldering iron with max. 30 Watt. Keep the soldering tip § § § § § § § § § clean so the heat of the soldering iron is applied to the solder point effectively. Only use electronic tin solder with flux. When soldering electronic circuits never use soldering-water or soldering grease. They contain acids that can corrode components and copper tracks.
English PZS-3 Assembling the kit You can skip this part if you have purchased a ready-built module. Preparation Put the sorted components in front of you on your workbench. The separate electronic components have the following special features you should take into account to prevent mistakes in assembling: Resistors Resistors reduce current. Their mounting orientation is of no importance. The value of resistors for smaller power ratings (under 5 W) is indicated through colour rings.
PZS-3 English Capacitors Among other things capacitors are used for filtering interference voltages or as frequency determining parts. Ceramic capacitors are not polarized, for that reason their mounting orientation is of no importance. Normally they are marked with a three-digit number which indicates the value coded. Value Number 100 nF 104 Electrolytic capacitors Electrolytic capacitors are often used to store energy. In contrast to ceramic capacitors they are polarized.
English PZS-3 Rectifiers Rectifiers convert alternating into direct voltage, they have hardly no influence on the level of the voltage. They have four pins: two for the input voltage (a.c. voltage) and two for the output voltage (d.c. voltage). The pins for the output voltage are polarized. The pin connections are printed on the housing. Transistors Transistors are current amplifiers which convert low signals into stronger ones. They have three contacts.
PZS-3 English Micro-Controler Micro-controller are ICs, which are individually programmed for the particular application. When leaving the manufacturer´s works their memory is empty. The programmed controller normally are only available from the manufacturer of the circuit belonging to it. Opto couplers Opto couplers are ICs, which work similar to laser beam switches. They combine in one housing a light emitting diode and a photo transistor.
English PZS-3 Terminal strips Terminal strips are solder-in screw-type terminals. They provide a solder-free and safe connection of the cables to the circuit, which can still be seperated any time. When several terminal strips have to be mounted side by side, they have to be put together before mounting. Assembling the kit Note: The components R6 and JP1 shown on the layout, are not required for this application and thus do not need to be inserted. Start the assembly with the resistors and the diodes.
PZS-3 English Performing a visual check Perform a visual check after the assembly of the module and remove faults if necessary: § Remove all loose parts, wire ends or drops of solder from the PCB. Remove all sharp wire ends. § Check that solder contacts which are close to each other are not unintentionally connected to each other. Risk of short circuit! § Check that all components are polarised correctly. When you have remedied all faults, go on to the next part.
English PZS-3 Connecting the shuttle-train control Dividing the shuttle-train section into parts The halts at the terminus stations and the two stops are initiated when the train has come into the respective section and the accessory track busy indicator has indicated the train coming in. The division of the shuttle-train section should be done as follows: § At least into the parts: terminus station 1 and terminus station 2. § If neccessary into the additional parts: stop 1 and / or stop 2.
PZS-3 English Connecting the shuttle-train section Section Outer conductor / all sections Terminus station 1 Terminus station 2 Free section connection point 13 18 8 5 cutting point A D B 9 and 6 C (1, 2) 9 6 C (1) C (2) If required it is possible to install "free sections" between the terminus stations and the stops.
English PZS-3 Connecting points In ordert to connect points you have to connect an additional bistable relay according to fig. 3. The bistable relay switches on the power supply for the one rail in terminus station 2 while switching off the power supply for the other rail. If no bistabile relay is connected both rails are constantly supplied with power.
PZS-3 English Run Between the halts the shuttle-train traffic always runs in four phases: acceleration, normal speed, braking and halt. As soon as a braking phase has been triggered (i.e. the locomotive has run into the respective section) the phases braking, halt and acceleration are time controlled. During the phase „normal speed“ the train is supplied with the voltage set at the driving transformer. The phase „normal speed“ is interupted by releasing a new braking phase.
English PZS-3 Extra halts By connecting the switching input „extra halts“ to earth an extra halt is released immediately and independent of the place where the train momentarily is. In order to close the earth contact you can use switches or external circuits (e.g. signal control circuits). N.B: The length of the phases accelerating, halt and braking is set jointly for all extra halts.
PZS-3 English Programming step 2: Setting the phases´length By adjusting the trimmer you set the length of the phases accelerating, halt and braking for the 5 stops. In state of delivery the phases are set to the shortest possible length. Test the module with these settings first. Choose the stop you want to program (see programming step 1) and prolong the phases by turning the adjusting screw to the right. N.B: The settings only take effect if you save them (see programming step 3).
English PZS-3 FAQ § Parts are getting too hot and/or start to smoke. ! Disconnect the system from the mains immediately! § Possible cause: one or more components are soldered incorrectly. à Perform a visual check. The train does not run. / Functional test: The lamp does not light. Possible cause: The driving transformer has not been connected. à Check the connections. § The settings of the trimmer do not take any effect on phase length of a stop.
PZS-3 English Note: The components R6 and JP1 shown on the layout, are not required for this application and thus do not need to be inserted. If you cannot find the problem, please return the module for repair (address on the cover page).
