GBM-8   

8-fold track occupancy detector 

Suitable for an extension of the Roco Feedbackmodule 10787!

If you use the Roco-Digital-System together with the Interface 10785 and the Software Rocomotion, you can use the track occupancy detector GBM-8 as an extension of the Roco Feedbackmodule 10787 to receive a comfortable and low-cost track occupancy report system.

 There are no more switch-rails 42518  required. You simply isolate one rail at the track section to be monitored and connect this section with one of the 8 inputs of the track occupancy detector GBM-8.

The monitored track section will receive digital current via the 8-fold occupancy detector GBM-8.  As soon as a current consumer (loc or a wheel set with resistance or conductive lacquer) will be within the monitored track section the GBM-8 will report the occupancy situation to the Roco Feedbackmodule 10787.

The GBM-8 recognizes currents from 0,001 Ampere. The maximum digital current on each output can be up to 3 Ampere (peak current up to 7 Ampere).

The GBM-8 requires no separate voltage supply. Therefore is a minimum of wiring required.

The 8-fold track occupancy detector GBM-8 is devided into two 4-fold track occupancy detectors. Therefore is it possible to monitor tracks of two different booster sections. The partioning into two 4-fold track occupancy detectors simplifys the monitoring of  terminal loops as well.
