Notes on BiDiB®
The BiDiB devices described in this manual comply ith the standards
of the BiDiB specification (status V0.7). The BiDiB specification has
been published on: .bidib.org.
BiDiB® is a registered trademark. Copyrights and trademarks to BiDiB
are held by Wolfgang Kufer, OpenDCC.de.
In order to increase the readability of this text, e have dispensed ith
referring to this ith every use of the term BiDiB.
How to use this manual
This manual gives step-by-step instructions for safe and correct
connecting of the hub, and operation. Before you start, e advise you
to read the hole manual, particularly the chapter on safety
instructions and the checklist for trouble shooting. You ill then kno
here to take care and ho to prevent mistakes hich take a lot of
effort to correct.
Keep this manual safely so that you can solve problems in the future. If
you pass the hub on to another person, please pass on the manual ith
it.
Intended use
The hub ARTEMIS is designed to be operated according to the
instructions in this manual in model building, especially in digital model
railroad layouts. Any other use is inappropriate and invalidates any
guarantees.
The hub should not be mounted by children under the age of 14.
Reading, understanding and follo ing the instructions in this manual
are mandatory for the user.

Package contents
hub ARTEMIS
one pluggable scre terminal for connection to the po er supply
4 short-circuit jumpers
a CD (containing the manual and further information)
Required materials
You ill need a s itching or plug-in po er supply. Technical data:
output voltage: 12 - 18 V direct voltage (DC)
output current: at least 1 A
If you use a po er supply unit ithout an integrated cable, make sure
that the cross-section of the supply cable is sufficient. Recommended
cross-section: > 0.25 mm² mm².
For connection to the BiDi-Bus you need patch cables ith RJ-45
connectors. To increase the clarity e recommend the use of different
coloured patch cables for the different bus lines of your model rail ay
layout (e.g. green for the BiDiBus).

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.

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 module.
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. Operation overvie
3.1. Background
In the BiDi-Bus the maximum number of participants in one level or
sublevel is limited to 32 nodes (e.g. interface, booster, accessory
decoder, feedback modules) for technical reasons.
In total up to 4 levels are permitted. With special nodes (the bus
bridges or so-called "hubs") further sublevels can be added in the top 3
levels, again ith 32 nodes each. Theoretically, about 1 million nodes
are possible in one system - a number that is certainly not exhausted in
practice.
The hierarchical structure enables the structured iring of the system.
This results in various advantages:
Depending on the system concept, the iring of individual system
parts or component groups can be clearly grouped in sublevels.
The extension of a layout or the addition of additional stationary
components is very easy. Changes and additions remain permanently
traceable.
Princi le structure of a BiDiB-controlled system
The system comprises up to 4 levels ith a maximum of 32 nodes each.
In the top 3 levels, additional sub-levels can be inserted ith the help
of hubs, hich can also have up to 32 nodes each. Hubs are no longer
permitted on the 4th level.
Level 1 contains the interface hich establishes the connection to the
PC and the control soft are. In the first level up to 31 additional nodes
can be inserted (the interface counts as one of 32 possible nodes).
The hubs technically represent 2 nodes, one in the main level to hich
they are assigned and one in the sublevel hich is set up ith their
help.

Note on the numbering of the nodes in the example: According to the
BiDiB specification the user does not have to deal ith numbers or
addresses of the components. The numbers in the figure ere dialled in
analogy to the addresses that the components receive according to the
BiDiB protocol. Ho ever, they are only intended here to clarify the
structure.
Tip: In order to keep the overvie ith a larger number of sublevels, it
is recommended to mark the bus cables of a sublevel uniformly or to
use patch cables in a different colour for each sublevel.

3.2. ARTEMIS
Pro erties according to BiDiB s ecification ("Features")
The ARTEMIS bus bridge ("hub") is, in the sense of the BiDiB
specification, a node on a bus level hich is also the interface for a
subordinate level. It corresponds to the requirements for the class
"interface" defined in the BiDiB specification.
In the BiDiB specification properties are given for devices of the class
"Interface" hich all nodes of this class must have ("mandatory
features"). They mainly refer to the transmission of messages from and
to further nodes in a sub-level.
According to the BiDiB specification ARTEMIS transmits all system
messages as ell as all messages for node management (NEW, LOST,
etc.).
ARTEMIS is overload-proof, i.e. integrated buffers ensure that no
messages are lost.
In addition to the mandatory features ARTEMIS has the follo ing
additional features ("optional features"):
Firm are update: It is possible to update the firm are for ARTEMIS.
Power su ly for additional nodes
According to the BiDiB specification, components that do not require
additional po er for their basic functions (e.g. feedback devices) obtain
their po er via the bus cable. ARTEMIS can provide up to 0.5 A for the
supply of components in the sublevel.
