Connections For A Programming Track; Direct Connections For A Mobile Station; Connections For The 60125 Terminal; Additional External Connections - Märklin Central Station Bedienungsanleitung

1 Gauge: 5654 feeder wire set + any standard section of track.
4. On large layouts feeder wires must be installed at least every
2 meters / 78".

2.2.4 Connections for a Programming Track

The Central Station
has a second set of
connections with a
smaller power out-
put (max. current
1 amp), which is
used for a pro-
gramming track.
This set of connec-
tions has the same
type of sockets as
for the connections
to the layout. The
same notes as in
Section 2.2.3 apply
here for the con-
necting hardware
for the different
track systems.
– Set up the programming track as a separate track.
– Only 1 locomotive or powered unit may be on the programming
track at a time.
– After you have finished programming a locomotive or powered
unit, remove it immediately from the programming track. The
Central Station sends data in many operating states to the pro-
gramming track during normal operation (example: when a new
locomotive is being set up in the locomotive list). Locomotives
"parked" on the programming track can possibly be reprogram-
med unintentionally as a result.
The roller test stands, item nos. 78100 or 78101 for H0 and item
no. 59931 for 1 Gauge, are ideal to use as a programming track.

2.2.5 Direct Connections for a Mobile Station

The Central Station offers the option of having 1 Mobile Station con-
nected to it directly as an auxiliary locomotive controller. Additional
Mobile Stations can be connected to the Systems network by means
of the 60125 Terminal. The connection socket for the Mobile Station
on the rear of the Central Station can be selected from one of three
alternatives. If additional Mobile Stations are connected to these free
sockets, they will be free from damages. In this situation, however,
adherence to your local regulations for preventing interference with
television and radio reception cannot be guaranteed. This type of
connection may therefore not be done.
Important: In any event the adapter cable (10 to 7 pin) must be
used. This adapter cable comes with the Mobile Station listed
under item no. 60652 or is available as a spare part under item
no. 610 479 at your authorized Märklin Systems dealer.
– When the Mobile Station is connected to the Central Station for
the first time, the Central Station checks the version of the data-
base in the Mobile Station. If this version is older than the version
in the Central Station, then this database is automatically updated.
The screen on the Mobile Station will go dark during this process.
A note about the updating process will appear after a short
while on the Central Station's screen. This means: Updating bus
device (please wait). After the updating of the database in the
Mobile Station is finished, the latter will also be reset. All of the data
in the Mobile Station's locomotive will be erased in the process!
– When the Central Station is connected to the layout by means of a
connector box, an additional Mobile Station can also be connec-
ted to this unit. The 610 479 adapter cable is also required for this.

2.2.6 Connections for the 60125 Terminal

The 60125 Terminal is used to set up a Systems network. Systems
components such as the Mobile Station can be connected to a
Terminal. When several Terminals are used, they are connected one
behind the other in series. The connecting cable for the Terminal
(about 60 cm / 24" in length) can be lengthened with the 60126
extension cable (about 200 cm / 79" in length) to allow flexibility in
the location of the next Terminal.

2.2.7 Additional External Connections

Your Central Station has another connection, which will be used in
the future for updates of its software from a personal computer. This
connection can be used as soon as the software is offered. Without
the appropriate software, no cable or unit of any kind should be
connected to this socket, even for testing.
