Signal Stop - Lenz Digital Plus GOLD maxi Mode D'emploi

5 Signal stop and push-pull control with an external reed contact
The GOLD maxi has a connection for an external reed contact. The reed contact is installed at the
bottom of the locomotive. You can let your locomotive stop in front of a signal or operate in push-
pull operation with the help of a magnet installed in the track. Please see Fig. 4, p. 7 for the
connection of the reed contact.

5.1 Signal stop

To activate the signal stop via the external reed contact, set bit 7 in CV51.
Function sequence: If the locomotive drives over the magnet installed in the track (reed contact is
closed), the locomotive will brake with the delay set in CV4 or the braking distance set in CV52 until
it comes to a halt. When the locomotive is to accelerate again, set the speed to speed step 0 and
accelerate.
Nothalt (emergency stop): If a locomotive drives over a second magnet while braking (contact is
closed again), it will stop immediately, i.e. without the set delay (or braking distance). This feature
can be used as a kind of 'INDUSI' by using an electronic magnet as second magnet which is only
active when the corresponding signal indicates 'stop'.
5.2 Push-pull (shuttle) train control
To activate the push-pull control via the external reed contact, set bits 7 and 8 in CV51. In addition,
set the desired stopping time in CV54. You need two track magnets to activate the reed contact at
each end of the push-pull section.
Function sequence: If the locomotive drives over the magnets installed in the track (reed contact is
closed), the locomotive will brake with the delay set in CV4 or the braking distance set in CV52 until
it comes to a halt. When the stopping time set in CV54 has elapsed, the locomotive will accelerate
into the opposite direction. Passage over the first magnets (which triggered the braking procedure)
