HADES
1.3. Intended use
The staging yard control HADES is intended for use in digital model railway layouts as
specified in the instructions. Any other use is not in accordance with the intended use and will
result in the loss of the warranty claim. Intended use also includes reading, understanding and
following all parts of the instructions. The staging yard control HADES is not intended to be
used by children under the age of 14.
1.4. Safety instructions
Note:
The modules contain integrated circuits (ICs). These are sensitive to electrostatic charging.
Therefore, do not touch these components until you have "discharged" yourself. For this
purpose, e.g. a grip on a radiator is sufficient.
Improper use and non-observance of the instructions can lead to incalculable hazards. Prevent
these dangers by carrying out the following measures:
Only use the staging yard control in closed, clean and dry rooms. Avoid moisture and splash
water in the environment. After condensation has formed, wait two hours for
acclimatisation before use.
Disconnect the modules from the power supply before carrying out wiring work.
Supply the unit only with extra-low voltage as specified in the technical data. Use only
tested and approved transformers.
Only plug the mains plugs of transformers into properly installed and fused earthed sockets.
When making electrical connections, ensure that the cable cross-section is sufficient.
Heating of the modules during operation is normal and harmless.
Do not expose the modules to high ambient temperatures or direct sunlight. Observe the
information on the maximum operating temperature in the technical data.
Regularly check the operational safety of the modules, e.g. for damage to the connection
cables.
If you notice damage or if malfunctions occur, disconnect the connection to the power
supply immediately. Send the module(s) in for inspection.
1.5. Care
Do not use any cleaning agents to clean the modules. Only wipe the modules dry. Disconnect
the modules from the power supply before cleaning.
