Installation, Electrical
The locomotive controller can be operated with AC or
DC. An internal circuit automatically detects the power
type and converts it to track power.
Connect the transformer / switched mode power pack
to the connections on the right side of the locomotive
controller (marked with WS/SW). Connect the track to
the terminals on the left side (marked RT/BL) (Fig. 1).
Operation
When the throttle knob is in the center “0“ position, the
throttle is off. Turn the throttle left or right to change the
speed and direction of the train.
Overload Protection
The throttle is protected against short circuits. If a short
circuit occurs, the throttle will switch off. However, this
overload protection functions only when using a power
supply with an output of 5 amps or more. When using
an power supply with an output of less than 5 amps, a
short circuit will trigger the overload protection of your
power pack.
