Hook-Up
Install your device in compliance with the connecting diagrams in this manual.
The device is protected against shorts and excessive loads. However, in case
of a connection error e.g. a short this safety feature can’t work and the
device will be destroyed subsequently.
Make sure that there is no short circuit caused by the mounting screws or
metal.
Connection to feedback modules is easy to every feedback module of every manufacturer possible. You can also contact our module mXion RBM (Art No-7001) for XpressNet® and S88 as also LocoNet® to connect another BM module.
Product description
The mXion BM is a universal, analog and digital (any format/system) usable occupancy detector for the detection of electricity consumers within a section. The module supports 4 sections and can these ads or as switch contact feedback. Is loaded consumer within a segment, switches the corresponding output (for L1 K1, L2 K2 etc.) to ground (GND).
Ideal for displaying track plans with display of currently occupied track sections, PC control and much more. For feedback to the central is a corresponding feedback module required. For S88, LocoNet and XpressNet there is our feedback module Art No-7001 which feedback and occupancy detector is combined in one module and can be extendet with one BM.
The current detection limit can be set via CV in very small sets.
