5. Mounting

1. Check the function before mounting (see chapter 4.).
2. Letter the signal in accordance with the instructions on page 3.
3. Saw a square hole of 15 x 15 mm at the mounting place. First drill 4 holes with 6 mm diameter. Please use the pattern which is shown in
fig. 3.
4. Insert the connection cables from above into the hole. Then put the signal with the drive first into this hole.
5. Hold the bottom plate of the signal from above. Then slide the retaining ring from below onto the drive, so that the tabs are twisted by 90°
to the riffle of the drive housing. Once the 4 plastic tabs of the retaining ring are under tension with the mounting plate, turn the ring until
the tabs lock against the groves on the housing (see fig. 4).

6. Connection

Caution:
Resistor and diode at the cables are needed for proper function of the model. Never cut them off! Never cover the resistor with insulation
material, because it has to be cooled by surrounding air!
Connect the signal as per fig. 6 or 7. For the meaning of the cable colours, see fig. 5.
We recommend a separate transformer as a supply for the signal light. This will prevent flickering of the lights due to high consumption of
the drive.
Connect the signal light to the transformer via the black cable with resistor)and the black cable with diode.
Hint: For DC operation, connect the two yellow cables to the negative pole of the transformer.
6.1 Analogue connection
The analogue connection is shown in fig. 6. Power is supplied via the brown cable and the two yellow cables. The blue cables with the
coloured markers are connected to contacts (single switches, track contacts, automatic track switches, push-button panel), which in turn are
wired to the brown lead ( = "ground"). Never supply power to both blue cables at the same time.
The two red connection cables of the signal switch the current in the insulated stop section on or off depending on the signal position.

6.2 Digital connection

The semaphore stop signal can also be operated with a digital system. Simply connect the cables to a digital decoder (e. g. item 5211 for
Märklin (Motorola) or the Multi protocol switching and turnout decoder , item 5280). See fig. 7.

7. Trouble-shooting

1. The bar is not straight.
Set the signal to the Sh0 aspect (driving prohibited) and adjust the bar back to the straight position very carefully! The bar can be shifted
on its axle.
2. The signal switches audibly - however the bar does not move or only partially.
Carefully move the lifting rod slightly up and down (if necessary detach the lifting rod from the bar lever and check if bar mechanics can
be moved without resistance).
3. The signal lamp lights and the power supply is doubtlessly in good order, however the signal does not switch.
Possible reason: The inner limit switch has no contact.
Switch off the electrical power! Then move up the switch contact by means of a pin or a thin wire (see fig. 8).
4. The light box does not shine, although the power supply is doubtlessly in good order.
Possible reason: Probably the LED in the light box is defective. Normally, LEDs have got an unlimited lifetime. They become defective
only by excess current (e. g. stroke of lightning, operating without resistor).
The LED cannot be replaced by the user. Send in the signal directly for repair. Please see chapter 8 "Warranty".

8. Warranty

Each model is tested as to its full functionality prior to delivery. The warranty period is 2 years starting on the date of purchase. Should a fault
occur during this period please contact our service department (service@viessmann-modell.com). Please send the item to the Viessmann
service department for check and repair only after consultation. If we find a material or production fault to be the cause of the failure the
item will be repaired free of charge or replaced. Expressively excluded from any warranty claims and liability are damages of the item and
consequential damages due to inappropriate handling, disregarding the instructions of this manual, inappropriate use of the model, unauthor-
ized disassembling, construction modifications and use of force, overheating and similar.
