| + | === Effective Installation Protection: Supervision of the pc-supported digital model rail road! === | ||
| + | |||
| + | The **WatchDog decoder WD-DEC** is a **Watchdog** for your **pc-supported digital model rail road**. If the **model railway software** has **lost the control** about the layout, the **WD-DEC** will **switch the tracks free** of current via the connected boosters and **all trains will be immediately stopped**. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Non-controlled running trains and the subsequences will be a matter of the past. | ||
| + | |||

| + | |||
| + | ====== Features of the WD-DEC ====== | ||
| + | |||
| + | * **Function: The WatchDog decoder** shall be connected between the command station and the first booster. In case the pc will not send every 5 seconds a normal switch command to the **WatchDog decoder**, the **WD-DEC** concludes that the model rail way is out of control of the pc. To prevent the non-controlled running of trains the **WatchDog decoder** disconnects the boosters from the central unit. The rails will be voltage-free **and all trains will stop**. | ||
| + | * Therefore the WatchDog decoder is not only absolutely necessary for exibitional model rail roads. The **WD-DEC** has been installed for example to every computer connected to the exibition model rail road at **[[:en:modellbahn_schauanlagen#miwu|Miniatur Wunderland]]** at Hamburger Speicherstadt/Germany since November 2002. **By using a WD-DEC your model rail road can operate without continuous observation at your ease**. | ||
| + | * The **WD-DEC** will not only monitor **the pc, but also the command station** at the same time. If the command station is not reacting to the commands of the computer the **WatchDog decoder will go into action**. | ||
| + | * The **WD-DEC** accepts **Märklin-Motorola-** and **DCC-commands**. The required data format will be adjusted with the implementation of a connector bridge. | ||
| + | * The **central unit** can be connected to the **boosters** directly via the **5-poles boosterbus (Märklin-Digital, Intellibox, TWIN-CENTER)**. Is there no 5-poles booster-bus available at the command station (e.g. **Lenz Digital plus**), the connection to the boosters will be done via the **screw-clamps** on the **WD-DEC**. | ||

| + | |||
| + | ==== Sample application: One or more boosters supply the digital drive current (at the sample power 3) to the rails. The first booster will be connected over the 5-poles booster-bus via the WatchDog decoder to the command station (at the sample Intellibox). The WD-DEC will be connected to a digital voltage and an external voltage as any other decoder. ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Each **WatchDog-Decoder WD-DEC** will be supplied with a detailed operating-/ assembly instruction. Those instructions can be found within the next section. | ||
| + | * The **WatchDog-Decoder WD-DEC** is available as a **kit (-B)**. Suitable **assembly material** for the kit is available under [[:en:zubehoer|Accessories]]. | ||
| + | * Each **WD-DEC** comes with a booster cable (1 meter length) for the 5-poles booster-bus (Märklin-Digital, Intellibox, TWIN-CENTER) for the immediate assembly. | ||
