4.1 AMPS Switch
The AMPS switch is used to set your Boosters desired output amperage. The
DB210 can be configured for 3,5, or 8 amps of power. The DB220 can be con
-
figured for dual 3,5, or 8 amps of power. Your booster should be set to match
the output rating of your command station and be powered by a suitable power
supply.
4.2 Power (PWR) Indicator
This LED indicates there is power supplied to the DB210/DB220. It will light
either RED when power is supplied. The PWR indicator will light RED wink-
ing off every 3 seconds as a “Heartbeat” when the unit is in RUN mode.
See
Section 6.0 for full light (LED) indication list.
4.4 Power In Terminals (“+” and “-“ 16A or 8A)
The DB210/220 are powered using the screw terminals labeled “+” and “-“
when using a dedicated DC power supply. For a shared DC power supply use
the “+” and “GR” terminals. When using the screw terminals make sure that
the polarity of the power supply matches the correct terminals on the connec-
tor. The DB210/DB220 is reverse input protected, however it will not power
on if the DC polarity is incorrect.
See section 3.0 for instructions on powering
your DB210/220
.
4.4 Rail 2B and 2A terminals (R 2B and R 2A)
These are the second set of booster outputs used with the DB220 dual booster.
Connect these terminals to the track sections powered by the DB220s second
booster outputs. Be sure to use double gaps between each booster section and
always connect the same rail to the same terminal on each booster. For exam-
ple connect all Rail A terminals to the right rail and all Rail B terminals to the
left rail or vice versa on all track sections.
4.5 Track 2 Status (TRK 2 STAT) Indicator
The Track 2 Status indicator shows that there is voltage on the Rail 2B (R 2B)
and Rail 2A(R 2B) terminals. The indicator will be lit when there is track volt-
age, and not lit when track voltage is off. The indicator will change color indi

(analog) locomotive.
