Setting The Address With The Switches - Marklin Digital m83 Manuel D'instructions

Up to 4 turnouts can be controlled independently of each
other in digital operation with the m83 turnout decoder.
To do this the decoder needs an address. This can be set
either with the externally accessible dip switches or with
programming from your controller. We strongly recommend
setting the address with the dip switches.

Setting the Address with the Switches

Up to 4 turnouts can be connected to the m83 turnout
decoder. The address is set for the first turnout. The other 3
turnouts automatically receive the corresponding consecu-
tive addresses.
There are 10 individual dip switches. The address is set with
switches 1 to 9 (switch 10 is for selecting the digital protocol
MM / DCC). The number value set with these switches gives
the address for the first turnout connected to the decoder.
The table on page 19 shows the switch settings for addres-
ses 1 – 160.
Note: There must be no current present in the decoder
before changing the dip switch settings. This means that
any external current supply connected to the decoder must
be turned off.
Example:
Switches 3 and 4 are ON, all of the others are off:
4 + 8 = 12 Adding the values of the switches
-> Turnout Group Address 12
12 x 4 - 3 = 45 Calculating the individual turnout
addresses
-> Individual Turnout Addresses 45 – 48
The 4 turnouts connected to the decoder have the
individual turnout addresses 45 to 48.
