2 Important advice, please read first!
The LW150 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 if you follow the advice below:
The LW150 may only be operated with Digital plus by Lenz
®
system
components. Any use other than that described in this operating
manual is not permitted. All guarantees will be void if the LW150 is
used inappropriately. Connect your LW150 only to devices that are
designated for such connection. This operating manual will tell you
which devices are suitable. Do not expose the LW150 to damp or
direct sunlight.
Warning!
Do not leave your model railway system unsupervised
during operation! The possible heating of components
during an unnoticed short-circuit may create a fire risk!
3 What is the purpose of the LW150?
The key module LW150 is an input device for the Digital plus system.
It serves to control accessories (points, signals, decouplers etc.)
connected to switch decoders in the Digital plus system. Each key
module serves to set a group of 16 points (or signals etc.) by means
of keys or switches. Thus, the LW150 facilitates the setting up of a
track control for use at the Digital plus system. You can use several
key modules LW150 simultaneously. When using two or more
modules, the first module is used to switch point addresses 1 to 16,
the second to switch point addresses 17 to 32 etc.
You can also opt to connect two keys to the LW150 to make use of
the "NOTAUS" (emergency shutdown) function of the Digital plus
system. This will enable you to stop all locomotives on the layout
using the track control in case of an emergency.
