Power Supply; Connections; Main And Programming Track - Roco multiZENTRALEPRO Manuel

The multiZENTRALE
PRO
supplies power to your model railway system, switches turnouts and other solenoid devices, and provides the data
for the decoders of your locomotives.

4.1 Power Supply

The power supply of the multiZENTRALE
transformers can be connected to the multiZENTRALE
Direct current (=): 18–24 Volt
▪
Alternating current (~): 16–18 Volt
▪
Do not use too little capacity for the power supply unit or transformer to ensure the amount available for running
trains and operating the system is sufficient. We recommend a minimum capacity of approx. 30 VA, which is sufficient
for small systems with one or two trains with lights.
If the red LED is lit continuously, you should use either a higher capacity power supply unit or a booster (see Part 5,
Chapter 5.5 "Booster 10765").
The menu item "CURRENT CENTRE" in the "SETTINGS – INFOS" menu provides information about the current
power consumption of the system. The multiZENTRALE

4.2 Connections

Additional devices can be connected to the numerous ports.
The USB port connects to PCs and associated devices. Use this port to control your system with the software
▪
ROCOMOTION with Set 10832 or update multiZENTRALE
The three sockets labeled "RocoNet" serve to connect additional devices such as a cabled multiMAUS, a Lok-
▪
maus 2 or R3, the RouteControl 10772. If you connect any of these devices, the digital controller should be
switched on to ensure the RocoNet addresses are properly and correctly assigned within the system. If these
three connections are not enough, use the data bus distributor 10758 to connect additional devices.
The "feedback BUS" socket is intended for feedback modules such as the ROCO Art. No. 10787. Up to 20 feed-
▪
back modules can be connected to the BUS line originating from this module. The feedback modules can be
subjected to a software update via the USB port of the multiZENTRALE
If you are connecting/removing a feedback module to/from the multiZENTRALE

Never remove the blind plug of the "EXT." port. Never connect a RocoNet or X-BUS device to this port
either!
