How to use this manual

Even if you have no specialist technical training, this manual gives step-
by-step instructions for safe and correct fitting of the module, and
operation. Before you start, we advise you to read the whole manual,
particularly the chapter on safety instructions and the FAQ chapter. You
will then know where to take care and how to prevent mistakes which
take a lot of effort to correct.
Keep this manual safely so that you can solve problems in the future. If
you pass the module on to another person, please pass on the manual
with it.

Intended use

The locomotive decoder is designed for mounting in a model train with
DC motor (LD-G-11) or AC motor (LD-W-11). It evaluates the Motorola
format data sent by the digital central unit to its address and controls
the locomotive´s motor and additional functions.
The module should not be mounted by children under the age of 14.
Reading, understanding and following the instructions in this manual
are mandatory for the user.
Any other use is inappropriate and invalidates any guarantees.

Caution:

Integrated circuits (ICs) are inserted on the decoder. They are very
sensitive to static electricity. Do not touch components without first
discharging yourself. Touching a radiator or other grounded metal part
will discharge you.
