2. Safety instructions

Mechanical hazards

Cut ires can have sharp ends and can cause serious injuries. Watch

out for sharp edges hen you pick up the PCB.

Visibly damaged parts can cause unpredictable danger. Do not use

damaged parts: recycle and replace them ith ne ones.

Electrical hazards

Touching po ered, live components,

touching conducting components hich are live due to malfunction,

short circuits and connecting the circuit to another voltage than

specified,

impermissibly high humidity and condensation build up

can cause serious injury due to electrical shock. Take the follo ing

precautions to prevent this danger:

Never perform iring on a po ered module.

Assembling and mounting the kit should only be done in closed,

clean, dry rooms. Be are of humidity.

Only use lo po er for this module as described in this manual and

only use certified transformers.

Connect transformers and soldering irons only in approved mains

sockets installed by an authorised electrician.

Observe cable diameter requirements.

After condensation build up, allo a minimum of 2 hours for

dispersion.

Use only original spare parts if you have to repair the kit or the

ready-built module.

English PZS-3

Fire risk

Touching flammable material ith a hot soldering iron can cause fire,

hich can result in injury or death through burns or suffocation.

Connect your soldering iron or soldering station only hen actually

needed. Al ays keep the soldering iron a ay from inflammable

materials. Use a suitable soldering iron stand. Never leave a hot

soldering iron or station unattended.

Thermal danger

A hot soldering iron or liquid solder accidentally touching your skin can

cause skin burns. As a precaution:

use a heat-resistant mat during soldering,

al ays put the hot soldering iron in the soldering iron stand,

point the soldering iron tip carefully hen soldering, and

remove liquid solder ith a thick et rag or et sponge from the

soldering tip.

angerous environments

A orking area that is too small or cramped is unsuitable and can cause

accidents, fires and injury. Prevent this by orking in a clean, dry room

ith enough freedom of movement.

Other dangers

Children can cause any of the accidents mentioned above because they

are inattentive and not responsible enough. Children under the age of

14 should not be allo ed to ork ith this kit or the ready-built

module.

Caution:

Little children can s allo small components ith sharp edges, ith

fatal results! Do not allo components to reach small children.

Page 6

PZS-3 English

In schools, training centres, clubs and orkshops, assembly must be

supervised by qualified personnel.

In industrial institutions, health and safety regulations applying to

electronic ork must be adhered to.

3. Safe and correct soldering

Caution:

Incorrect soldering can cause dangers through fires and heat. Avoid

these dangers by reading and follo ing the directions given in the

chapter Safety instructions.

Use a small soldering iron ith max. 30 Watt or a regulated

soldering iron.

Only use electronic tin solder ith flux.

When soldering electronic circuits never use soldering- ater or

soldering grease. They contain acids that can corrode components

and copper tracks.

Insert the component connecting pins into the PCB´s holes as far as

possible ithout force. The components should be close to the

PCB`s surface.

Observe correct polarity orientation of the parts before soldering.

Solder quickly: holding the iron on the joints longer than necessary

can destroy components and can damage copper tracks or soldering

eyes.

Apply the soldering tip to the soldering spot in such a ay that the

part and the soldering eye are heated at the same time.

Simultaneously add solder (not too much). As soon as the solder

becomes liquid take it a ay. Hold the soldering tip at the spot for a

fe seconds so that the solder flo s into the joint, then remove the

soldering iron.

Do not move the component for about 5 seconds after soldering.

Page 7

English PZS-3

To make a good soldering joint you must use a clean and unoxidised

soldering tip. Clean the soldering tip ith a damp piece of cloth, a

damp sponge or a piece of silicon cloth.

Cut the ires after soldering directly above the soldering joint ith a

side cutter.

After placing the parts, please double check for correct polarity.

Check the PCB tracks for solder bridges and short circuits created by

accident. This ould cause faulty operation or, in the orst case,

damage. You can remove excess solder by putting a clean soldering

tip on the spot. The solder ill become liquid again and flo from

the soldering spot to the soldering tip.

4. Operation overvie

Traffic between two terminus stations

The module controls the shuttle-train traffic bet een t o terminus

stations of an analogue a.c. model rail ay layout. At the second

terminus station points can be connected. This allo s the alternating

traffic of t o trains on the shuttle-train section. One additional stop can

be added in each direction of traffic bet een the terminus stations.

The shuttle-train traffic runs automatically. The trains are slo ed do n

before reaching the terminus sections or the t o stops as soon as a

track busy indicator integrated into the module indicates the train

coming into the respective section. The further course (braking, halting

and accelerating) is time controlled.

Extra halts

Independent of the automatically running shuttle-train traffic bet een

the terminus sections (and the t o stops), extra halts can be

incorporated ith external circuits at any time and place.

Settings for the automatic operation

The traffic

bet een the terminus stations

bet een the terminus stations and the stops

bet een the terminus stations, the stops and/or the extra halts

al ays runs in four phases: acceleration, normal speed, braking and

halt. The length of the phases acceleration, braking and halt can be

programmed

individually for each of the t o terminus stations

individually for each of the t o stops

jointly for all extra halts.

The length of the phases is adjusted at a trimmer, the settings are

saved in an IC.

Page 9

English PZS-3

Manual operation

The halt at the terminus stations, the stops and the extra halts can be

prolonged by connecting the corresponding input of the module to

earth. Then the train stops at the next station, stop or halt as long as

the input is connected to earth (at least so long as programmed for the

particular halt). This allo s intervention in the automatic shuttle-train

traffic via a s itch or an external extra circuit.

The already mentioned extra halts are released as soon as the

corresponding input of the module is connected to earth. This can be

done at any time, regardless in hich position of the shuttle-train

section the train is. There are a hole range of applications for this,

e.g.:

effectuating extra halts along the shuttle-train section or

effectuating of signal stops or

triggering exact halts at defined positions (e.g. at the end of a

platform).

To trigger additional halts, several external circuits can be used, e.g.

manually released s iches, couplings ith reed contacts or light

barriers or complex signal control circuits.
