the side panel of the lamp box. 

The

 power cable must be run to the 

loudspeaker between metal chassis and base of the lamp.  

5.5 Connecting an external Amplifier  

Near the loudspeaker of the sound unit is a board with a connector.  An 
external amplifier can be connected to this.

  

5.6 Connecting the LocoNet for Digital Control  

If the light system is to be operated by a digital center with LocoNet 
connection (Intellibox, DAISY, Märklin 6021 with 6021-Infrarot & LocoNet 
adapter, Fleischmann TwinCenter, Piko power box), the LocoNet cable from 
the digital center is connected to the basic unit (connector 1). Additional 
cables can be found in our catalog.

  

5.7 Connecting Keys and LED‘s for Analog Operation  

If the Light system is to be used with a conventional DC or AC layout or a 
digital controller that does not have a LocoNet output

,

 it can be 

controlled

 

by using push button keys. Any normally open momentary push button 
switch can be used as keys.  

Connect the switches and the LED to the 5-way plug as shown in the 
diagram.   Insert the plug into connector 2 of the base unit. 

LED – Model time indicator 

 

Key 3 – Change model time 

 

Key 2 – Trigger long thunderstorm

 

Key 1 – Toggle day/night

 

 

Common return line for keys und LED

 

Connector 2 – Keys and LED‘s for analog operation  

6. Operation  

The lighting system is controlled by an internal model clock. 

Sunrise

 is set 

at

 7:00 o'clock and sunset 

at

 19:00.  Weather events (cloudy 

appearance, rain and thunderstorm) are randomly inserted in the daily and 
night sequence. 

When the lighting system is switching on, the model clock is set at 7:00 
o'clock and so the sunrise occurs. Sunrise, sunset and up to 8 different 
weather events can be activated by key instruction.  

Furthermo

re, 

the system can be brought into a layout service mode, when 

all white CCFL tubes and halogen lamps are brought to maximum 
brightness.  In this mo

de, 

the system clock is stopped so that this state is 

not independently changed.
