S88-4 English
4. Operation overview
The feedback module S88-4 is compatible with all components working
with the s88-bus developed by the company Märklin**. It can read in
16 mass contacts. This information is transferred via the s88-bus to the
upstream module or to the connected digital unit (interface, memory or
central unit). The data transfer from one feedback module to the other
one works on the principle of the bucket brigade device.
The number of feed back modules to be connected to one bus line
depends on the interface, the memory or the control unit in use. Please
follow the specifications of the device´s manufacturer.
Specific features of the S88-4
According to the standard, the s88 feedback system is mounted by
lining up the feedback modules, comparible to lining up pearls on a
string. On this principle branching bus lines or a radial layout cannot be
put into practice without using special attachments.
The addresses for the standard feedback modules are assigned
automatically, according to the modules´ order. When mounting an
additional standard module between two existing modules, the
succeeding modules will be renumbered automatically. The effort
involved to reprogram the control software in the PC can be
considerable.
