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.

NOTE: Please note the CV basic settings in the delivery state.

Product description

The mXion PSD is a universal module for DC engines for turntables.

Ideal and great for the POLA®-G turntable (Faller® 331945). The PSD is there a 1:1 replacement for the pre-installed electronics. The PSD can be exactly as descripted above changed agains the old PCB in the turntable. All connections can be continue to be used, including the switch box (analog operation) can also be done via LGB® perform switching or control panels.

The special thing about the PSD is also here full-featured DCC decoder. Leave it digitally controlling the turntable comfortably. About a turnout address, the engine and the direction of rotation is switched.

Furthermore, the internal LED (per delivery permanently switched on) by address also manually switched.

The PSD is rounded off by an integrated 10A reverse loop module and a bottom plate to adapt the stage. By the short free reverse loop module do no develop short circuit and other problems more, when you get off the stage ascends. The sweeping loop electronics supplied always for the right polarity!

Connecting example

In digital mode, the control takes place via turnout adresses. The switch contacts (X5,X6) are not needed. All departure tracks can be connected directly to the digital control center. The automatic reverse loop adjusts the polarity always on. This supplies the stage.

In the analog, the hub can with any voltage (X1, X2) are operated. X3/X4 becomes not required. The departure tracks must be separate be switched (e.g. swith or LGB® control panel). The control of the turntable can either with switches or, the turntable, enclosed control panel or the LGB® switch panel.

If problems, change X3 and X4!

FIG 2 If problems, change X3 and X4!

To solve the problem of the stage, your PSD comes with a board and 2 coals 16mm. So you can the sliding contacts of the turntable remove and no longer has contact problems. Set up the board in the middle of the stage out of the ground. Drill 2 holes in the chosen one distance in the turntable to fix the coals.

These must each haven a copper disc of the enclosed touch the board. Then close the 2 coals to the 2 tracks in the stage. Wire the turntable as follow:

FIG 3 Connecting example

In digital mode, connect the 2 cables the reverse loop module (X3, X4). The decoder always ensures the right polarity. All departure tracks can be directly with the digital command station connected.

In analog mode, close the cables of the board to your model train transformer. All departure tracks and the stage (i.e. board) must be switched separately.

Programming lock

To prevent accidental programming to prevent CV 15/16 one programming lock. Only if CV 15 = CV 16 is a programming possible. Changing CV 16 changes automatically also CV 15.

With CV 7 = 16 can the programming lock reset.

STANDARD VALUE CV 15/16 = 155

Programming options

This decoder supports the following programming types: bitwise, POM and CV read & write and register-mode.

There will be extra load for programming at the engine output.

In POM (programming on maintrack) the programming lock is also supported. The decoder can also be on the main track programmed without the other decoder to be influenced. Thus, when programming the decoder can not be removed.

NOTE: To use POM without others decoder must affect your digital center POM to specific decoder adresses.

Programming binary values

Some CV’s (e.g. 29) consist of so-called binary values. The means that several settings in a value. Each function has a bit position and a value. For programming such a CV must have all the significances can be added. A disabled function has always the value 0.

EXAMPLE: You want 28 drive steps and long loco address. To do this, you must set the value in CV 29 2 + 32 = 34 programmed.

Programming switch adress

Switch addresses consist of 2 values.
For addresses < 256 the value can be directly in address low. The high address is 0. If the address is > 255 this is as follows (for example address 2000):

2000 / 256 = 7,81, address high is 7 2000 – (7 x 256) = 208, address low is then 208.

Programm these values into the CVs of A1, A2, Engine, Direction of turn.

Programming loco adress

Locomotives up to 127 are programmed directly to CV 1. For this, you need CV 29 Bit 5 „off“ (will set automaticly).

If larger addresses are used, CV 29 – Bit 5 must be „on“ (automaticly if change CV 17/18). The address is now in CV 17 and CV 18 stored. The address is then like follows (e.g. loco address 3000):

3000 / 256 = 11,72; CV 17 is 192 + 11 = 203.
3000 – (11 x 256) = 189; CV 18 is then 189.

Reset functions

The decoder can be reset via CV 7. Various areas can be used for this purpose. Write with the following values:

11 (basic functions)
16 (programming lock CV 15/16)
33 (function and switch outputs)
