t a ms elektronik Booster B-6
Connection of further boosters ("CDE")
To connect additional boosters, also use the DCC-compliant ("CDE") interface of the B-6 and
not the BiDiB interface. The BiDiB and the DCC-compliant interface of the B-6 are not
internally connected to each other.
When selecting additional boosters, be sure to observe the notes and background
information in section 3 "Conception of the digital layout"!
4.4. Connection to a BiDiB-PC interface without track output function
Via the BiDiB-PC interface the B-6 is integrated into the BiDiB control system and the booster
management of the control software can be used for the B-6 (→ section 2.6 "Use with BiDiB").
Connect one of the two BiDiB sockets of
the B-6 to the BiDiB PC interface via an RJ
45 cable. The two RJ 45 sockets of the
BiDiB interface are connected in parallel,
so you can use any socket.
Connecting further boosters
The remaining socket is available for connecting further BiDiB components (e.g. additional
boosters, stationary decoders, feedback devices). When connecting additional boosters, also
use the BiDiB interface and not the DCC-compliant ("CDE") interface of the B-6. The BiDiB and
the DCC-compliant interface of the B-6 are not internally connected to each other.
Connection to the digital control unit
If the B-6 is only connected to a BiDiB PC interface without track output function via the BiDi
bus, no track signal is present at the BiDiB interface of the B-6. In this constellation, you must
therefore additionally connect the B-6 to a digital control unit via the DCC-compliant booster
interface (→ section 2.6 "Use with BiDiB").
To connect the cables to the booster, use
the enclosed 3-pin connector in which the
cables are screwed tight.
