Decoder Installation - Marklin Digital 60985 Manual Del Usario

• Automatic system recognition. The address assigned to each
system must be used for operation.
• Acceleration and braking delay can be set separately from
each other. Any function button desired can be assigned us-
ing the function mapping.
• Typical sound backdrops for diesel and electric locomotives
are included.
• Variable motor feedback control is available in digital as well
as in analog operation.
• 6090, 60901, DC, and can motors with bell-shaped armatures
are supported. With Sine motors, the values in CV 52 must
be set to 1, in CV 56 to 0 (see CV table). Set CV 51 either to 24
or 0. In addition, you must map Aux 3 and Aux 4 respectively
for Status (S) and Running (F) with the Central Station or the
60971 Programmer.
• Function mapping included. See Help in the Central Station
(60213/60214/60215/60216/60226) or a detailed table to function
mapping can be found on the Internet at:
http://www.maerklin.de/de/service/technische-informationen
• This unit can be updated with the 60213/60214/60215 CS2 (soft-
ware version 4.0 or higher), the 60216/60226 CS3, or with the
60971 Programmer.
• Programming on the Main (PoM) this type of programming
must be supported by the controller. Please note the instruc-
tions for your controller when doing this.
• Switching range can be set.
• Braking / signal stopping block recognition is available in
digital operation.
• Automatic calibration of a locomotive with CV 7 (mfx, DCC, MM).

Decoder Installation

The locomotive must be checked before installing the decoder to
make sure that it (locomotive) is in good mechanical and electri-
cal condition. There are situations when the locomotive will have
to be repaired before installing the decoder.
First unsolder the wires to the current pickups (pickup shoe(s)),
motor, and the lights. After that remove the old decoder or re-
verse unit. Screw down the circuit board retainer and solder the
wires to the motor connections, pickup(s), and any functions.
The colors for the wires correspond to the NEM; see Page 28 for
a comparison table for Märklin Standard.
If the lights are grounded to the locomotive's or powered rail
car's ground on the frame, we recommend that the lights be
insulated from the locomotive ground. To do this, use the E604180
plug-in bulb holder(s) and E610080 light bulb(s). This will give you
flicker-free lighting.
If your locomotive or powered rail car is equipped with LED
lighting, then series resistors must absolutely be installed. Series
resistors differ according to the current the design. Find out the
correct values for your LEDs. You may have to ask your specialty
dealer about this.
If you want to retrofit your locomotive or powered rail car with
LEDs, the cathodes (-) on the LED are connected to the light
output on the decoder. Don't forget series resistors! The anodes
(+) are connected to the common wire (orange).
The common ground return (orange) must not be connected to
the ground for the locomotive or powered rail car.
