LS-DEC

For light signals of the Swiss Federal Railway (SBB)

Light-Signal-Decoder

for SBB train signals equipped with LED (light emitting diodes) for the data formats Märklin-Motorola and DCC from our Digital-Professional-Series !

The light-signal decoder LS-DEC is available as a kit, as finished module or as finished module in a case.

Realistic switching of light-signals via decoder addresses:

• For the first time is it possible to switch train light-signals with our LS-DEC light-signal decoder directly by using the decoder addresses. Ideal for Memory- (IB-switch) und PC-control. No further circuitry required. The signal wiring is simply connected to the signal module with practical and secure clamps.

• In case you want to control Swiss SBB-Signals with 3 and 4 lamps our light-signal decoder LS-DEC-DB is suitable. In case you want to control Swiss SBB-Signals with 5 to 7 lamps our light-signal decoder LS-DEC-SBB is suitable.

For the Swiss SBB-Signals with 3 and 4 lamps the light-signal decoder LS-DEC-DB is suitable.

• Dark switching programable, if advance- and main signal are arranged on one common signal post.

• Signal aspects will not simply be cross faded but as realistic the prior aspect will be firstly dimmed and after a short dark phase the new signal aspect will appear. The light emitting diodes (LED´s) will be dimmed up and down during this process.

above: conventional signal change by simple switching.

• With integrated series resistor for the light emitting diodes

• Suitable for all LED-light signals with common anode or common cathode.

• The signal current has not necessarily to be supplied by a booster but can be directly fed into a separate input from a model railroad transformer.

• The LS-DEC-SBB can control in a master-slave-mode a main and an advance signal together with one command.

• By using a connector plug you can choose if you want to operate the decoder on a Märklin-Motorola system or on a digital system with DCC Standard.

• Decoder of the Digital-Professional-Series can be used on your digital system without any problems because they are compatible to the Märklin-Motorola-Dataformat respectively to the DCC Standard.
  You will get a 24 month warranty on the finished modules and on the finished modules in a case.

• Each decoder LS-DEC-SBB will be supplied with a detailed Operating- respectively Assembly-Instruction. Additionally to the Operating Instruction please load the file "lsdec-sbb_info" onto your PC. Within this info-file you will find detailed tips and various hints for the digital operation of SBB-light signals.

• You can purchase the light-signal decoder as a kit, as tested finished module or as tested finished module in a case. Suitable assembly material for the kit or the finished module is available under Accessories.
