Accessory decoder LS150 3
Important advice, please read first!
The LS150 is a component of the Digital plus by Lenz
®
system
and was submitted to intensive testing before delivery. Lenz
Elektronik GmbH guarantees fault-free operation provided you
follow the advice given below:
Any use other than that described in this operating manual is not
permitted and all guarantees will become void if the LS150 is used
inappropriately.
Connect the LS150 only to devices which are designated for such
connection. This operating manual will inform you which devices
are suitable.
Observe the technical data contained in this operating manual. Do
not in any case exceed the values stated for voltage and power as
this could damage the LS150.
Do not expose the LS150 to damp locations or direct sunlight.
Use of the LS150
The LS150 is a turnout decoder for use in connection with the
Digital plus by Lenz
®
or any other NMRA-DCC compliant system.
Turnout decoders are the connecting link between the digital
system and the turnout switch machine. The LS150 can also be
used to drive other layout devices that are driven by coils (for
example switch machines, relays, uncouplers, semaphore signal
drives etc.) on your model railway layout.
The LS150 was designed specifically for the connection of twin-
coil machines and relays. Here, the AC output of the LS150 is
particularly advantageous for switching twin-coil switch machines
very reliably.
Motorized switch machines can also be connected to the LS150;
this connection requires (depending on the drive used) the use of
an additional 2 simple diodes per turnout.
