Product Description
The mXion SMB is a versatile module. Ideally, it is to control railway crossings too.It is possible to connect one motor to one It is possible to connect one motor to one alternately suitable for barrier movement (A1/A2). The contacts K1/K2 switch depending on the direction, i.e. if K1 has been switched first, K2 must be switched to be able to start the barrier again and vice versa. This makes it possible to use the module in div. modes. The module can be used both, analog & digital In analog, the contact inputs can be simply switched by the switch, push, reed or light barrier. In digital, you can use all the same as in analog mode, but the simplest way is to make a short cut- out piece of track (e.g. 2 cm) that driving trains will close this piece and switch the SMBs K1 or K2. This solution is the easiest way to control in an automatic way. The speed and travel time of the engines can be adjusted via the 2 pots. The two outputs A1 and A2 enter alternating flashing while the engine is moving.
