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.
Product description
The mXion DGK is a universal, analog and digital (any format/system) usable occupancy detector for the detection of electricity consumers within a section.
The special thing about the DGK ist hat it is fully encapsulated electronics in a small case whichh ideally placed in the LGB track. The DGK includes a full-fledged decoder and a reed contact which from the outside can be triggered by a magnet. By the integrated radio module can then be a switching command for turnouts or a feedback address sent to the control center become. Thanks to the separate radio channel this is particularly strong and secure. This eliminates the need for a lot of cabling and the feedback can be used there where they are needed.
Connection
Only the 2 cables need to be connected to the digital track be connected. Put
the DGK between the track and screw this with the screw firmly. Finished!
The integrated reed switch can be triggered by train magnet.
Pay attention to the magnet/sensor (see image) The module needs 2 sec. to start first after that it can be addressed via magnets. Note you also set the default delay time.
Wireless connection
The DGK has a built-in radio module which preset on our central MZSpro and 30Z
is.
It is important that the radio channel is identical to that is set in the
control center. Via CV10 can check whether the radio module starts properly.
Level controlling
Each close a contact in mode switch control level dependent switches the
associated one in the address CV entered turnout address to right each open to
the left. The direction is invertible via CV. So that can be set up simple
control panels.
Train detection mode
Upon delivery, all contact inputs are open occupancy report made (mode 2).
This mode is meant for trains and their position on recognizing the system and
using a PC control.
Settings and programming
The module settings are made via DCC by means of a programming track or via
POM.
Calculation contact addresses
The contact addresses are equivalent to calculating turnout addresses (see POM
address). Depending on the mode is the address a turnout or
feedback address.
Example: You concern contact address < 256:
Enter the different address in CV „low“ and CV „high“ will always be 0.
Example: You convern contact address 1250: Address CV high: 1250 / 256 =
4,88 High: 4 Address CV low: 1250 – (Address high 256) = 1250 – (4 256) =
226.
