manual LH10
digital operation (DCC and Motorola®)
The light bar LH10 will work with most of the analogue and digital
model railroads. You can adjust the brightness of the LEDs to suit
your needs; this is done by a potentiometer or by setting
configuration variables. The enclosed multiprotocol decoder allows
some special effects and additional functions. The length of the
light bar LH10 may be reduced down to 90 mm by cutting it at the
clearly marked points.
Features :
• analogue mode (DC and AC)
• enclosed multiprotocol decoder for digital operation
• automatic recognition of and shift to the actual
operations mode
• enclosed constant current source for steady brightness
(works in analogue mode from about 7 Volt or more)
• brightness may be adjusted by potentiometer or
configuration variable (CV)
• charge rate limiter for optional external buffer capacitor
• programmable with DCC and Motorala® central units
• maximum voltage in digital mode: 21 V
• current drain (depending on selected brightness): 30...70 mA
• operating temperature: 0...60° C
• dimensions: 232 mm x 7,7 mm x 3,4 mm
