[f1], [f2] Startup Inertia mode selection
[f1] off, [f2] off = no inertia control
[f1] on, [f2] off = next higher setting
[f1] off, [f2] on = medium setting
[f1] on, [f2] on = maximum operation
[f3] Shunting
[f3] off = shunting active
[f3] on = shunting inactive
[f4] Startup inertia on/off
[f4] off = inertia activated
[f4] on = inertia deactivated e.g. for shunting
[f5] Motor control
[f5] off = PWM frequency of 104 Hz to control
conventional DC motors
[f5] on = PWM frequency of 16.7 KHz to control
bell armature DC motors
[f7] Operation of reversing loop
[f7] off = closing the switch reverses the direction
opening the switch reverses the direction
[f7] on = closing the switch reverses the direction
opening the switch does not reverse the
direction
Turnout booster in analogue layouts
Power 2 booster can be installed to control
turnouts and signals fitted with decoders in DCC
format and controls them via LocoNet devices
without the need of a central digital controller.
In this way a Power 2 can be used as a turnout
booster or in a DAISY system, together with an
IB-Switch or Switch-Control as a digital turnout
control system, in a conventional layout. With the
IB-Switch or Switch-Control turnouts, signals and
routes can be switched.
In order for turnouts to function correctly after a
power down of the LocoNet control panels, in this
type of installaton, it must have at least one
DAISY handcontroller connected. This
handcontroller must be configured so that it saves
the turnout settings when the layout is turned off
(see chapter “Special Options” in the DAISY
manual).
If the Power 2 without a DAISY handcontroller is
connected with an IB-Switch or Switch-Control the
state of turnouts will not be displayed after a
powerdown. The LEDs will only indicate after the
turnout has been switched once.
Turnout booster wiring
To operate a Power 2 as a turnout booster Pin 1
and Pin 2 must be connected. Adapter 61 050
can be used for this purpose.
Connect Power 2 to a separate transformer (e.g.
20 040). The track connectors are used connect
the decoders.
If the Power 2 turnout booster is to be used in a
DAISY system on an analague layout, it is
connected into the systems daisy chain as shown
in the previous section. The last booster in the
chain must have the controllers connected to it.
To this booster you can connect the IB-Switch, or
Switch-Control as a turnout controller.
Turnout addresses in the range 1 to 1024 are
supported.
The preset turnout switching time of 1.3 seconds
can be saved for the selected track circuit by
pressing [f7] on the controller.
