For the connection to the control units LZ100 or LZV100 of Lenz (up to 128 units or together with LR101 and LS100).
Suitable for the monitoring of 8 track sections with a current load up to 3 Ampere. A peak current up to 7 Ampereare temporary acceptable. Isolated rails or track sections to be monitored for occupancy will get simply the digital current via the output clamps of the feedback module. The track sections can be isolated as 1-pole or as 2-poles.
The 8-fold track occupancy module RS-8 is divided into two 4-fold occupancy monitors. This makes it possible to monitor tracks of two different booster lines. The devision into two 4-fold track monitors simplifies the control of reversing loops. More information about this issue can be found in the file ”Reversing loop monitoring” at the download section.
Including voltage monitoring: is there no voltage at the tracks (e.g. after short circuit) the occupied status will be`frozen` during the interruption.
Track voltage and feedback bus are galvanically separated by opto couplings from the power supply.
The feedback modules RS-8 can be combined with other feedback modules (RS-16-O, LR101 or LS110) as required.
Avaiable as ready to use finished module, as finished module in a case or as a kit on a 110x96mm pc-board with 4 bores for assembly purposes (suitable enpty case as LDT-02 for kits from version 3.2 and assembly material can be found under accessories).
Components from the Digital-Professional-Series can be operated on your digital system without any problem. The RS-8 is compatible to the used RS-feedback bus.
The finished module and the finished module in a case comes with 24 month warranty.
Each feedback module RS-8 will be supplied with a detailed operating-/respectively assembly-instruction. Those instructions can be found within the next section.
You can purchase the feedback module as a kit (-B), as tested finished module (-F) or as tested finished module in a case (-G).

The idea of Digitrains was conceived over the dinner table and grew very slowly as doubts calmed missionary zeal. We finally took the plunge in January 2005 and are fortunate to be dealers for some of the best and most user friendly DCC equipment available.
