2 Power Station LV101
The power station LV101
The DIGITAL plus LV101 Power Station is the “successor” of the
previously available LV100. New features include user selectable
DCC track voltages, a fault detection LED, and a new RJ-45
plug-in connector. This connector is provided now for new
devices currently under development. This allows you to
continue to use your LV101 in the future without modification.
The DIGITAL plus Power Station LV101 provides clean and safe
DCC power to the track. New circuitry has been developed to
reduce noise, which provides exceptionally clean power to
operate your DCC equipped trains. Safety features include:
• Short/overload detection that turns off the power to the track
whenever a short or overload condition is detected. This
protects both your trains and the LV101 electronics.
• Opto-isolation to safely isolate your control bus wiring from
your track wiring. This eliminates any possibility for hidden
ground loops through your power station.
• Fail Safe runaway protection is provided by requiring a 7 volt
signal on the DCC Control Bus (the C and D wires). This
prevents the LV101 from accidentally sending out power to
the track when the command station stops transmitting
packets.
A new feature in the LV101 is a fault detection LED located on
the front of the unit. When the power station is in use, the LED
on the front is lit. In case of an overload of the power station, the
LED will flash. In addition, the LED will also flash if no
information is being transmitted over the Control Bus
(connections C and D), or one of the wires in not connected.
The LV101 Power Station was designed to meet all NMRA
Standards and RPs including the new the NMRA Control Bus
draft RP. This allows maximum interchangeability for use with
other conforming NRMA DCC systems. It has been submitted to
the NMRA for full conformance testing. It has passed all the
NMRA tests and the Conformance Warrant is pending.
