DIGITAL plus
Quick Setup
In order to operate your DIGITAL plus DCC system you will need
some track, a locomotive and an external transformer. (Note:
While a single transformer is sufficient for operation, we
recommend an separate transformer for both the LZ100 and the
LV101)
Figure 2: Connecting your DIGITAL plus system to yout layout
Connecting the LZ100 and the LV101 together is simple.
Connect the transformer to terminals U and V. For HO scale and
smaller, the transformer output voltage should be 16V AC or
DC. In order for the Power Station to give off its full 3A current,
the transformer also needs to be able to deliver an output
current of at least 3A (50VA). Use a suitable, UL listed
transformer designed for model trains. The allowed maximum
effective output voltage of the transformers must not exceed 18V
AC or DC.
The track is connected to terminals J and K (see Figures 2 and 3).
The Power Station receives command information from the
Command Station via terminals C and D. These terminals are
connected to the corresponding terminals on Command Station
LZ100 with a 2-wire cable. To reduce radio interface, these wires
should be twisted (see Figure 3).
