Locomotive decoder LE230

DIGITAL plus

Read out CV30. In this CV (when the self-test is on) the type of
problem is stored as the corresponding bits. From the table
“Determining the settings of the Locomotive Decoders in CVs”
you can read which bit shows which problem.

Now again remove the locomotive from the track, correct the
problem as needed and test it again. First clear the bits in CV30
that showed you the problem, and then turn on the self-test in
CV60 again.

Connecting additional functions:

You connect additional functions using wires to the 8-pin
terminal strip S1. The correct plug, with attached wires, is
included. You can connect the additional functions either directly
to the wires, or if the maximum current load of the outputs is
exceeded, via Function Module LF200.

 

To the yellow wire you connect the function that you want
to turn on and off with key ‘1’ on Hand Held Controller
LH100 or key ‘1’ on Arnold/Märklin control 80.

 

To the white wire, connect the function that you want to
turn on and off with key ‘2’ on the Hand Held Controller.

 

To the black wire, connect the function that you want to
turn on and off with key ‘3’ on the Hand Held Controller.

 

To the red wire, connect the function that you want to turn
on and off with key ‘4’ on the Hand Held Controller.

 

To the gray wire, connect the function that you want to
turn on and off with key ‘5’ on the Hand Held Controller.

 

To the orange wire, connect the function that you want to
turn on and off with key ‘6’ on the Hand Held Controller.

 

The green wire is a power ground.  This wire should be
used with extreme caution and is only intended for use
with devices that require it..

If the functions and/or lamps are isolated in the locomotive, then
you can connect the blue wire to the common connection for the
functions. After this wiring, you can program the locomotive to
the desired address and start your trial run.
