LGB 10340 - Automatic Shuttle Circuit

Automatic Shuttle Circuit.

It's easy to make an automatic station-to-station layout with this simple LGB accessory. An adjustable, electronic circuit automatically shuttles the train back and forth on a length of track, stopping at each end. With prototypical acceleration and braking.

Requires 10-24 volts DC.

With the 10340 Automatic Reversing Unit, your train can shuttle automatically between two stations.

Features include:

• two operating modes – “basic” with adjustable acceleration – “prototypical” with adjustable acceleration and braking
• adjustable stopping time at stations
• short circuit and overload protection

This package includes: • 1 track bumper with circuit board • 2 insulated track sections with factory-installed diodes • 1 blue/red track power cable • 1 blue/red connecting cable (transformer/track bumper)

Attention! This product cannot be used with the LGB Multi-Train System. However, locomotives with decoders can be operated with the reversing unit and an analog power pack.

OPERATION CAUTION! Make sure there is enough stopping distance in each station to prevent accidents. Changing the speed of your train or the settings of the 10340 will change the required distance. For example, faster trains require longer stopping distances.

Hint: This version of the 10340 has new features, including adjustable acceleration and braking. The instructions for this version do not apply to earlier versions.

Operating modes Inside the track bumper, there is a circuit board with two switches and two control knobs. To reach the controls, turn the track bumper upside down.

The “Mode” switch selects the operating mode:

Mode 1 (factory preset): “Basic” with adjustable acceleration and abrupt braking. In this mode, the 10340 can be used as replacement for older LGB reversing units (80090, 0090).

Mode 2: “With prototypical braking:” adjustable acceleration and braking.

Attention! Changes to the operating mode settings will not take effect until the power has been shut off for at least 15 seconds
