6.0 Customizing Your BDL16 By Setting Up Option

Switches

TABLE II, below, details the option switches & settings you can use to cus-

tomize your BDL16. These option switches are set up using your Digitrax

throttle's SWITCH commands. SWITCH mode is normally used for operating

turnouts by issuing closed ("c") or thrown ("t") commands. In the case of your

BDL16, each switch address is a BDL16 option switch.

6.1 How to read back and change BDL16 Option Switches:

1. Power up your BDL16.

2. Press the switch behind the red option LED for about 1 second, then release

it. The red option and green ID LEDs will flash alternately to let you know

that you are in option switch setup mode.

3. Connect a DT or UT series Digitrax throttle to the BDL16's LocoNet con-

nector.

4. Go into SWITCH mode. Dial up the switch number that corresponds to the

OPSW you want to change and issue a closed "c" or thrown "t" command to

set the OPSW to the desired setting. The OPSW is changed as soon as you

issue the SWITCH command. See below for instructions for specific Digitrax

throttles.

5. When BDL16 OPSWs are set up as desired, press the switch behind the red

option LED for about 1 second and release it, the BDL16 will exit option

switch set up mode. You can also exit option switch set up mode by turning

off the power to the BDL16 and then turning it back on.

DT100 or DT200 series throttle, press "MODE/DISP" on the throttle to enter

SWITCH mode. Use the throttle to read back each OPSW in TABLE II by

dialing it up on the throttle and looking at it's setting (c or t). If you need to

make a change to the OPSW simply press c or t to make the change you want.

Once you are finished reading back and changing settings, simply wait 6 sec-

onds for the throttle to time out and return to LOCO mode. Be sure to com-

plete step 5 above when finished setting OPSWs.

UT series throttle, press RUN/STOP and DISP/OPSW at the same time to

enter SWITCH mode. With a UT throttle, you won't be able to read back the

BDL16 OPSW settings but you can change them by dialing up the OPSW

number you want to modify and pressing the c key. When the LED under the c

key is on the OPSW is set to closed, when it is off, the OPSW is set to thrown

(the factory default setting). When you are finished setting up BDL16 OPSWs,

return to LOCO mode by pressing RUN/STOP and DISP/OPSW at the same

time to exit SWITCH mode. Be sure to complete step 5 above when finished

setting OPSWs.

TABLE II: BDL16 Option Switches (OPSWs)

BDL16 option switches (OPSWs) have a default of "t" or thrown. The

following table shows what each OPSW is used for when it is set for

thrown or closed.

7.0 Power Management

The BDL16 is designed to operate "downstream" of the Digitrax boosters and

power management devices. The BDL16 is the "last" device in the chain from

booster to power manager to BDL16. It is connected directly to the track

detection section. There should be no other connections to any detection sec-

tion that will draw track power or the detection section will always show occu-

pied.

If a device is used to switch off power feeding the BDL16 and the track it is

connected to, for example, a PM4 Power Manager, it should break the track

power to both the zone and detection common rail. If a device only switches

off a single leg, then it must be placed in the detection common rail wiring.
