Optional connections
 Short circuit feedback line: The feedback is DCC-compliant to the DCC booster connection
of the digital central unit (or via an external booster to the central unit). With central units
or boosters that do not have a DCC-compliant booster connection, the shortcircuit feedback
line cannot be connected.
 External emergency stop button: With the button the power is switched off simultaneously
for all sections. With the appropriate setting, the button can also be used to switch the
current back on (e.g. after a short circuit).
Setting options
By plugging jumpers (short circuit jumpers) onto the 2x4-pole pin connectors, the following
can be set
 the number of active sections (2 or 3)
 the maximum current in the sections (2 A or 3 A). The setting is made separately for each
booster section.
Further settings are made using the main track programming (POM):
 Turnout addresses for separate switching on/off of the two or three booster sections with
DCC turnout setting commands
 Turnout address for switching on/off the watchdog with DCC turnout setting commands
 Short circuit sensitivity: setting in 50 ms steps (50...350 ms)
 Restart time after a short circuit: Setting in 1 s steps (4...9 s)
 Use of the emergency stop button for restarting after a short circuit
 Behaviour in case of short circuit: Switching off all strings or only the affected string
 Max. duration of the inrush current ("inrush time"): setting in 50 ms steps (300...500 ms)
Note: With central units that do not support POM programming, the settings cannot be
changed. Factory settings (default values) → section 4.2.
LED display of the operating status
LEDs indicate the operating status of the individual (active) strings:
 String switched on / off
 Short circuit in the connected booster section
 Emergency stop button pressed
