e. Remove the wire from J2. 

f.  Verify D7 and D12 return to ON and D17 turns OFF. 

Programming CV’s & Values:

 

Optional/Not Required! 

The easiest way to program PSXX circuit breakers is at your work bench. Programming CV 

values is done using the Programming On Main [POM] function. Refer to your DCC system 

manual for specific directions on how to perform Program On Main functions.

 

 

D12 Green LED On indicates DCC power J1 input 

 

D7 Green LED On indicates DCC power J2 output 

 

D17 Red LED On & D7 Green OFF indicates short circuit 

 

D18 Blue LED indicates that current limiting is active.  For marginal shorts, it may 

flash without tripping the breaker. For hard shorts, it will light momentarily and then 

the breaker will trip. 

 

B. User Guidelines 

1. Before wiring, ensure the Programming Jumper is on pins JP1.2 & JP1.3 to operate 

[Pin JP1.1 is nearest to the J7 connector] 

2. Cut isolating gaps in the rails between PSXX zones, and stagger the gaps by about 

0.75” [21mm]
