Locomotive decoder LE230
7
DIGITAL plus
∗
Terminal L2 to the rear lights (in direction of travel). If the
lamp is isolated, then connect terminal U+ with the other
lamp lead.
Now put the locomotive (without putting on the shell) on the
programming track, and read out the address. From the factory
the decoder is programmed to address 03. If you have
connected the decoder properly so far, you should now be able
to read out the address. If that is not the case, then you may
have made a mistake in wiring. The decoder will help you in
tracking it down.
Figure 1: Wiring the LE230 using track voltage common
With the self-test turned on (factory default, bit 2 in CV60 is ‘1’),
the decoder is able to determine the following wiring problems on
the programming track:
∗
Prohibited connection of a motor lead with the track.
∗
Short circuit of the directionally switched light output to the
track.
If a problem of this kind is present, then the decoder cannot be
read out. On the Hand Held Controller you get the display
“ERR02”.
In that case, proceed as follows:
First turn off the decoder self-test by clearing bit 2 in CV60 (see
the section “Programming the Locomotive Decoder”).
