mXion SWD-ED 1-Channel Servo Decoder

Introduction

Dear customer, we strongly recommend that you read these manuals and the warning notes thoroughly before installing and operating your device. The device is not a toy (15+).

NOTE: Make sure that the outputs are set to appropriate value before hooking up any other device. We can’t be responsible For any damage if this is disregarded.

NOTE: Der Decoder is set to SWITCH ADDRES when you want to switch with F-key LOCOADRESS then put CV29 = 6 to have loco mode.

The decoder can drive over 2 switch addresses  3 positions (right, left, mid), so you can handle signals with 3 states or other movements.

General Information

We recommend studying this manual thoroughly before installing and operating your new device.

Hook-Up

Install your device in compliance with the connecting diagrams in this manual. The device is protected against shorts and excessive loads. However, in case of a connection error e.g. a short this safety feature can’t work and the device will be destroyed subsequently.
Make sure that there is no short circuit caused by the mounting screws or metal.

NOTE: Please note the CV basic settings in the delivery state.

Connectors Single Decoder With Servo

The SWD decoder is also single including servo available. It is ideal for electr.
decoupler (e.g. Heyn®) or for mobile doors, bells (here there is a vibration mode) as well as other tasks to be controlled by servo.

He can also by locomotive address and thus by F-key be switched!
Servo included, plugable on the pcb.
At the servo, the cable colors are:
+SV = red
GND = brown or black

Product Description

The mXion SWD-ED is a very small 1 ch.
servo decoder. 2 servos can be connected to it will then run symmetrically (e.g. for uncoupling). Prepared is one connector for directly attaching a servo. A separate switching output with own address or function key is also integrated.

The decoder supports besides the control over point addresses (delivery) also the controller about locomotive addresses (CV29 = 6). The control between endpoints are standard. Location and speed can be adjusted freely.
Via CV116 the switching time can be adapted to the servo (for digita.1 servos, a value of 1 or O is recommend!).

The peculiarity of the decoder lies in div. novel control options:

  1. Bell swinging with realistic up and down motion. Through the following CVs the swinging can be perfect with everyone sync sound!
    The mode is activated with CV115 = 1.
    About CV103 can swing be set (increasing speed).
    About CV104 can swing out be set.
    About CV114 can wait at the end positions be set.
  2. Rocking for signals and barriers.
    The mode is activated with CV115 = 2.
    About CV113 is the speed for the teetering set.
    About CV114 is the way (in degrees) for the seesaw is set.
  3. Control via rotary control for cranes
    The mode is activated with CV115 = 3.
    In addition, CV29 = 6 must be set (loc mode).
    If the corresponding function key (CV119) is pressed, the servo follows the throttle.

The decoder can also have 3 positions (right, left, central, layers adjustable in CV117/118 and CV102) separately control via 2 turnout addresses. The 2nd address is switched off by delivery (O), in CV130/131 this can be activated, this is interesting function for signals with 3 positions or other objects that are approached in 3 positions should.

Programming lock

To prevent accidental programming to prevent CV 15/16 one programming lock. Only if CV 15 = CV 16 is a programming possible. Changing CV 16 changes automatically also CV 15.
With CV 7 = 16 can the programming lock reset.
STANDARD VALUE CV 15/16 = 225

Programming Options

This decoder supports the following programming types: bitwise, POM and CV read & write and register-mode.
There will be no extra load for programming.
In POM (programming on main track) the programming lock is also supported.
The decoder can also be on the main track programmed without the other decoder to be influenced. Thus, when programming the decoder can not be removed.

NOTE: To use POM without others decoder must affect your digital center POM to specific decoder addresses

Programming Binary Values

Some CV’s (e.g. 29) consist of so-called binary values. The means that several settings in a value. Each function has a bit position and a value. For programming such a CV must have all the significances can be added. A disabled function has always the value 0.
EXAMPLE: You want 28 drive steps and long loco address. To do this, you must set the value in CV 29 2 + 32 = 34 programmed.

Programming Switch Address

Switch addresses consist of 2 values. For addresses< 256 the value can be directly in address low. The high address is 0. If the address is > 255 this is as follows (for example address 2000):

2000 / 256 = 7,81, address high is 7 2000 – (7 x 256) = 208, address low is then 208.
Program these values into the SW1 CVs CV120/121 and A2 (CV127 /128).

Programming loco Address

Locomotives up to 127 are programmed directly to CV 1. For this, you need CV 29 Bit 5 ,,off” (will set automatically).
If larger addresses are used, CV 29 – Bit 5 must be ,,on” (automatically if change CV 17/18). The address is now in CV 17 and CV 18 stored. The address is then like follows (e.g. loco address 3000):

3000 / 256 = 11,72; CV 17 is 192 + 11 = 203.
3000 – (11 x 256) = 189; CV 18 is then 189.

Reset Functions

The decoder can be reset via CV 7. Various areas can be used for this purpose.
Write with the following values:
11 (basic functions)
16 (programming lock CV 15/16)
33 (function and switch outputs)
