Introduction/Safety instruction:
You have purchased the 4-fold turnout decoder S-DEC-4-DC
for your model railway supplied within the assortment of
Littfinski DatenTechnik (LDT).
We are wishing you having a good time using this product.
The S-DEC-4-DC is suitable for the DCC Data format, as used
for instance at the systems of Lenz-Digital Plus, Arnold-,
Märklin-Digital=, Intellibox, TWIN-CENTER, Roco-Digital,
EasyControl, ECoS, KeyCom-DC, Digitrax, DiCoStation and
Zimo.
The decoder S-DEC-4-DC can not only switch turnouts via the
turnout addresses but also responds to loc-addresses.
Therefore is it possible to shift turnouts with the keys F1 to F4 of
the Lokmaus 2® or R3®.
The decoder S-DEC-4-DC is multi digital and can be installed
to the Intellibox and on TWIN-CENTER without any problems.
The decoder comes with 24 month warranty.
• Please read the following instructions carefully. Warranty will
expire due to damages caused by disregarding the operating
instructions. LDT will also be not liable for any consequential
damages caused by improper use or installation.
Connecting the decoder to your digital
model railway system:
• Attention: Before starting the installation switch off the
drive voltage by pushing the stop button or disconnect
the main supply to all transformers.
The decoder receives the digital information via the clamp
KL1. Connect the clamp directly to the command station or to a
booster assuring the supply of digital information free from any
interference.

Part-No.:
The
DCC-Digital-Systems
respectively indications for the two digital cables. Those
markings are indicated next to the clamp KL1. These markings
have not necessarily to be maintained correct as the decoder
converts the signal automatically to be correct.
The decoder receives the power supply via clamp KL2 (middle
and left clamp marked with ~ ). Voltage in the range of 14 to
18V~ is acceptable (alternate current output of a model railway
transformer).
If you do not want to supply power to the decoder S-DEC-4-DC
from an external transformer you can connect the clamp
KL1 to KL2 with two wires. In this case the decoder will get the
power supply complete from the digital system.
Now connect turnouts, signals, uncoupling tracks or the
permanent power switch units [DSU] to the 3-pole clamp
marked 1 to 4.
The common conductor of a double coil (turnout or semaphore
signal) has always to be connected to the middle clamp of the
relevant decoder output. The two remaining cables mostly
marked with red (turnout round) and green (turnout straight)
shall be connected to the clamps marked ‚R' and ‚G'
accordingly.
Programming the decoder addresses:
To program the decoder address a turnout has to be connected
to the output 1 of the decoder.
•
Switch on the power supply of your model rail way.
•
Adjust the speed of all connected speed controller to zero.
•
Press the programming key S1.
The turnout connected to output 1 will move now automatically
every 1,5 seconds. This indicates that the decoder is in the
programming mode.

•
Switch now one turnout of the group of four assigned to
the decoder via the keyboard of the control unit or via a
remote control. For programming the decoder address you
can also release a turnout switch signal via a personal
computer.
Remarks: The decoder addresses for magnetic accessories
are combined into groups of four. The address 1 to 4 build
the first group. The address 5 to 8 build the second group
etc. Each S-DEC-4-DC decoder can be assigned to any of
these groups. Which turnout of a group will be activated for
the addressing does not matter.
•
If the decoder has recognized the assignment correctly the
connected turnout will move a little faster. Afterwards the
movement slows down to the initial 1,5 seconds again.
