Setting the address
The decoder is set ex-works to the point addresses 1 to 6.
There are two different ways of setting the addresses of the outputs:
1.
Set output 1 to the desired address; the remaining outputs are automatically
set to the 5 following addresses.
2.
Set each output to an individual address; the addresses of the outputs need
not be sequential.
In order to be able to set adresses, the LS150 must be connected to a power
supply (AC voltage input) and the track information (input J,K). Point drives need
not necessarily be connected. You can also set the addresses of the LS150 when
the installation is completed. This is helpful if you wish to change addresses later
or when dismantling the model railway.
Setting outputs with sequential addresses
Connect the LS150 to both the voltage supply and track output as described in
the Section "Anschluss des LS150" (Page 7). Then switch on your
Digital plus by Lenz
®
system.
1.
Choose the point address of your digital system to which you wish to set the
first output of the LS150. Proceed as if you wanted to switch a point
1
.
2.
Press the key on the LS150 and keep it down until the LED shines
continuously (this will take approx. 3 sec.). Release the key. The LED
remains switched on and the LS150 changes from the normal operating
mode into the setting mode. The LS150 will now assume the address of the
first switch command it receives.
3.
Proceed as if you wanted to switch the chosen point and operate the
corresponding key of the digital system. It does not matter whether you
choose the key "branch" or "straight", e.g. when using the LH100, use the
keys '+' or '-'.
4.
The point address received with the switch command is now allocated to
output 1 of the LS150. Outputs 2 to 6 are automatically set to the following
point addresses.
You can tell that the setting was effected when the LED turns off and the switch
command is carried out, i.e. the corresponding point (if connected) switches. The
LS150 now returns to the normal operating mode.

system, refer to the corresponding operating manuals.
