Summary of operation
You can adapt the module to different carriage sizes by shortening the
PCB. The following partitioning of the PCB is possible:
§
1 piece with a length of 75 mm and 4 LEDs (= complete length)
§
1 piece with a length of 60 mm and 3 LEDs
§
1 piece with a length of 52 mm and 3 LEDs
§
1 piece with a length of 38 mm and 2 LEDs
A LED constant current source is integrated into the module to reduce
brightness fluctuations of the LEDs due to voltage variations.
The module is particularly designed for the use in vehicles compatible
to the Faller* car system, that are run with two accumulator batteries
(e.g. as interior lighting for busses).
When mounted in model railway carriages, a rectifier has to be
connected in series, as the module should be run with direct voltage
only. This applies to model railways that are run with direct voltage (2-
rail systems), too, as in these systems the polarity changes with the
direction of motion. In order to shunt short current interruptions you
can mount an additional electrolytic capacitor.
