The Programming track can only be used for programming and
reading of decoders. It cannot be used for running trains.
If the programming track is also to be used for traffic it must be
connected to the track via a change over switch (e.g. our Switching
decoder SD1, Part No. 67500).
If the connections to the programming track are exchanged the IB-
COM switches off as soon as a vehicle drives over the isolation to
the programming track.
3.4 Connecting a DCC booster
DCC Booster can be connected to socket 4. They can output
Motorola and DCC data formats.
Lenz Booster
The signal lines C and D and the short signal line E must be
connected to the 3 pole clamp plug as shown in the picture.
1 C =
2 D = Signal -
3 E = Short-circuit signal line
Märklin- and Arnold Digital= Booster
Märklin Digital = Boosters (6016) and Arnold Digital = Boosters
(86015) can be connected to connector 2 with help of Uhlenbrock
adapter 61 030.
Other DCC boosters
Usually, DCC boosters have only two wires. These wires should be
connected to terminals 1 and 2 of connector 4.
Because of the connection of “E” the boosters are not able to
transmit a short-circuit signal to the IB-COM, but they are usually
protected by their own short circuit protection.
3.5 Connecting a LocoNet Booster
LocoNet must be connected to connector 3 (RJ12) for LocoNet B on
the rear of the IB-COM.
These boosters are not able to transmit a short-circuit signal to the
IB-COM but they are usually protected by their own short circuit
protection.
