3. Important Notes
Congratulations on your purchase of an ESU SignalPilot decoder.
This manual wants to introduce you step by step to the possibilities
of the decoder. Therefore, a request:
Please carefully work through this manual before commissioning.
Although all SignalPilot decoders are very robust, a wrong con-
nection could destroy the device. If in doubt, avoid „expensive”
experiments.
• The SignalPilot is intended exclusively for use with electric model
railway systems. It may only be operated with the components
described in this manual. Any use other than that described in this
manual is not permitted.
• All connection work may only be carried out when the operating
voltage is switched off.
• The power sources must be secured in such a way that in the event
of a short circuit, there can be no cable fire. Use only commercially
available model train transformers manufactured according to the
VDE/EN, bearing the CE mark.
• Never operate the SignalPilot unattended. The SignalPilot is not
a (children’s) toy.
• Follow the principles of this manual when connecting the external
components. The use of other circuitry may cause damage to the
decoder.
• The SignalPilot is not waterproof: Outdoor use is not intended and
is done at your own risk.
• Do not attempt to open your SignalPilot module. Improper treat-
ment may destroy it.
