INSTRUCTION MANUAL CENTRAL COMMAND STATION MX10, MX10EC Page5
Track 2
Primary supply
power supply unit with
20 - 35 V =
80 - 600 watt
You can only use gal-
vanically isolated power
supply units!
MX10 powers up auto-
matically after connect-
ing/turning on the power
supply unit.
Outputs: Track 1 | track DCs (DC out) S1, S2 | track 2
2-pole socket “Schiene 1” (track 1) - usually main track
2-pole socket “Schiene 2” (track 2) - usually programming track, additional circuit
“Digital current” (DCC, MM, in the future possibly other track formats as mfx, sx)
Polarity N,P without meaning in simple applications important on layouts with sections
or track sections (MX9, StEin, booster application)
Outputs track 1, track 2 regarding voltage, current limits, etc.
have to be configured independently, depending on configuration and
situation they use the same or a different data signal.
3-fold socket “DC out” “
-
S1, GROUND, S2
(S=track)
to supply stationary equipment modules StEin, track section
modules, terminal loop modules, and others (within the MX10 DCC power amplifiers).
All necessary connectors are included in the scope of supply.
Audio socket (line out)
For an amplified playback
of sounds which are pri-
marily reproduced by an
internal speaker (from
warning signals to sound
projects; application is not
yet defined).
Sockets for ZIMO CAN and LAN
CAN bus
- for a 6-pole connection to ZIMO controllers
and modules; and/or
- for an 8-pole connection to ZIMO stationary
equipment modules “StEin” and compatible
boosters as well as booster input and booster-
error output (CAN and synchronization for ex-
ternal DCC-power amplifiers).
LAN interface as networkable alternative to an
USB-computer connection, or to a WiFi router
(tablet apps, etc.)
AOS inputs and LED outputs
8 logic-level inputs (react to ground and positive voltage, e.g. track
signal) for
- External buttons for emergency stop and emergency OFF,
- Track contacts for internal AOS (automatic operation sequences)
- Track contacts for external AOS (automatic operation sequences)
6 LED outputs (resilience of up to 25 mA) for
- Signals, various lights, controlled by AOS,
Supply pins 5V and GROUND.
2.4 GHz antenna for Mi-Wi radio
To communicate with radio modules, ZIMO
uses “Mi-Wi”, a “mesh network” based on
components and software of the company
Microchip, derived from the ZigBee stand-
ard. The messages are forwarded from nod
to nod until they reach their destination,
even if there is no direct radio connection at
the moment.
USB (device) socket
Connection to the com-
puter via USB to use
with interlocking and
configuration software.
The transmission rate
corresponds to 1 M
Baud; the necessary
protocol can be down-
loaded from our web-
site.
LocoNet plug
Prepared for imple-
mentation.
Connection to power
Regulated DC connection
ground 12 and 30 Volts.
