Product description The DIGISWITCH switching decoder is a fully programmable, multi-protocol switching decoder that can digitally switch anything imaginable on your model railway. The switching decoder has 16 switchable outlets which can, for example, switch 16 lights or 8 sets of points. The switching decoder has several presets that enable you to switch four Dutch three-light signals with number boards. Belgian and German signal aspects can also be switched.

Quick start Follow these steps to start using your decoder as an 8-channel switching decoder straight away. Give the module an address The DR4018 module first needs an address to be able to communicate with your control unit. The module comes as standard with address 1 and set up as a switching decoder using DCC format. Step 1 : Connect both the POWER + SIGNAL to the rails or tracks output on your control unit. Step 2 : Set your control unit to the starting address you want to give the module. Step 3 : Press the program button on the module until the red LED remains on. Step 4 : Now switch your control unit to the selected address. Step 5 : If the module is connected correctly, the LED will go off when you select the address. Step 6 : The first output (OUT1) has now received the selected address. All subsequent OUT outputs are given an address 1 number higher. Example: The module is programmed to address 56. OUT1 is given the address 56, OUT2 gets address 57, OUT3 number 58 etc. Because the decoder is multiprotocol and supports DCC and Marklin Motorola, selecting a switching address should also select the protocol. When the decoder receives a switching command as per the steps above, the decoder identifies which protocol was used and stores this in its memory. IMPORTANT! In DCC mode you can select any starting address and the module will automatically give the subsequent outputs an address that is one higher. The Motorola protocol works with groups of 8 numbers. This means you cannot chose a starting address from within a block. For example: address 1 through 8, 9 through 16, 17 through 24 etc. Reset the module to factory settings using POM programming Use this method to reset the module to factory settings using POM programming. Step 1 : Step 2 : Step 3 : Step 5 : Step 6 : Step 7 : Step 8 : Step 9 : Step 10: Connect the signal input on the decoder to the rails output on your control unit. Ensure the module is receiving power via the module s power input. (You can also connect the power and signal inputs to each other) Set your control unit to POM programming mode. (You can find more information about the POM mode in your control unit s manual) Choose local address 9999 on your control unit. Press the button on the module until the LED goes on. Then program decimal value 8 in CV8. Press the button on the module until the LED goes out. It is important when carrying out a RESET that the module is now disconnected from the power. Disconnect both the power and the signal inputs and wait for 3 to 5 seconds. The decoder can now be reconnected to the power and will have returned to the factory settings. BE CAREFUL! The decoder now has address 1 again. www.digirails.com Page 3

Modify the decoder s settings There are two ways of changing the decoder s settings and/or switching time, or chosing one of the many presets in CV47. They are described below. (1) CV Programming / reading through the programming track This common way of programming can become rather complicated. The decoder must first be prepared by placing a 150 270 Ohm resistor on output 1 as shown in the diagram. The resistor ensures that there is a resistance on the programming track, which your conunit requires as confirmation that a module is present and that the programming commands have been received from the control unit. Unfortunately, no two control units are the same and it is possible that the attached resisdoes not provide enough, or provides too much, resistance. If this happens, consult your control unit s manual to find out what resistance is required. In most cases using a bulb (12 Volt 60 ma) works well. trol tor Step 1 : Step 2 : Step 3 : Step 4 : Step 5 : Step 6 : Step 7 : Connect both the power and signal inputs on the decoder to the rails output on your control unit. Press the program button on the module until the red LED stays on. Now connect both the power and signal input on the decoder to the program output on your control unit. You can now modify the CVs using CV byte or CV bit programming. (For information about CV byte or CV bit programming, please consult your control unit s manual) Connect both the power and signal inputs on the decoder to the rails output on your control unit. Press the program button on the module until the LED goes out. Your modifications have been saved and the module is ready for use. (2) CV Programming via the main track (POM) An alternative way of programming is POM (Program On Main). This method of programming allows you to connect the module directly to the track without the difficulty of attaching a resistor, as is required when programming via a separate programming track. Step 1 : Step 2 : Step 3 : Step 5 : Step 6 : Step 7 : Step 8 : Step 9 : Attach the signal input on the decoder to the rails output on your control unit. Ensure the module is receiving power via the module s power input. (You can also connect the power and signal inputs to each other) Set your control unit to POM programming mode. (You can find more information about the POM mode in your control unit s manual) Choose local address 9999 on your control unit. Press the button on the module until the LED goes on. Now program the desired CVs for the module. Press the button on the module until the LED goes out. The module is ready for immediate use with the modified settings. BE CAREFUL! In some cases the DR4018 must be given a new address by following the steps in the Give the module an address section on page 3 of this manual. www.digirails.com Page 4

Function mapping outputs 1 through 16 This table shows you how to connect the different outputs on the DR4018 module (1 through 16) to the switching keys on your control unit. This is useful when you want to switch more than one output at the same time with one key. If you want to switch more than one output with one function key in the same group then add the values together. Example 1 (grey): Key 1 should switch outputs 2 and 5 when ON. You program: CV141 values 2 + 16 = 18. Example 2 (black): Key 10 should switch ouputs 1 and 15 when ON. You program: CV195 value 1 and CV196 value 64.

EXTERNAL FEED AC or DC CONTROL UNIT DR4018 DIGISWITCH (v1.2) Frequently Asked Questions Q: Is the polarity of the signal input important? A: No, the signal input is isolated by an optocoupler. Q: Is the polarity of the power input important? A: No, the power input has a rectifier. Q: My decoder is not programmable via POM on my Lenz control unit A: Make sure that both locomotive addresses on the unit are set to address 9999. Q: Can the decoder switch Conrad points motors directly? A: No, for that you need a DR4101. (See connection examples on page 10). Q: Can the decoder directly switch so-called common min signals (common cathode)? A: No, for that you need a DR4103. Q: Can the decoder directly switch so-called common plus signals (common anode)? A: Yes, that s not a problem because common anode is standard in model building. Q: Does the decoder have a built-in series resistor for the signals? A: No, you have to connect the resistor supplied with the signal to terminal C. Q: When programming / reading the CV, my unit shows error. What s going on? A: The decoder has a power buffer for switching coil actuators, which has to be loaded first. Try reading / programming again (several times if necessary) EXTERNAL FEED FEED FROM CONTROL UNIT www.digirails.com Page 9

resistor resistor DR4018 DIGISWITCH (v1.2) Presets A special feature of the DR4018 module is the ability to program the module, for example for a signal module, in one action without having to manually set up dozens of CVs. This section of the manual describes in detail which presets are possible with corresponding connection examples. Important: The module reads any preset in CV47 during startup. After the automatic adjustment of the module CV47 will be empty again. For this reason CV47 should not be read to see which preset is selected. PRESET 0 - POINTS DECODER (standard factory setting) All DR4018 modules are set up with PRESET 1 as standard, meaning the decoder uses 8 switching addresses and gives you the ability to switch 8 sets of points. PRESET 1 - SWITCH DECODER This preset makes the module a 16-channel switch decoder and assigns every output its own address. Each output can be switched individually allowing you, for example, to control the lighting on your model railway. LED LED www.digirails.com Page 11

PRESET 6: 8x POINTS MOTOR (without cut-out) This preset sets the module to switch 8 points motors. It is necessary to use a special DR4101 extention for each points motor, which you can find in our catalogue. PRESET 13: 8x POINTS MOTOR (with time limit) This preset sets the module to switch 8 points motors and allows you to set a time limit. It is necessary to use a special DR4101 extention for each points motor, which you can find in our catalogue. CONRAD POINTS MOTOR Pulse times for PRESET 13 These CVs set the pulse duration of the outputs (OUT1 through OUT8) according to your wishes. The lower the value, the shorter the pulse duration, where the longest pulse duration (value 255) is approx. 1.5 seconds.
