LGB 10345 - Shuttle Train Automatic Circuit Box

Shuttle Train Automatic Circuit Box

The shuttle train automatic circuit box allows you have a train shuttle between two stations. An electronic circuit stops the train at the station and then has it reverse direction and go back. This box is easy to install and has adjustable stop duration and prototypically smooth start up and braking. It can be connected to 10-24 volts DC. 10345 is the technically ideal, improved successor to 10340.

With the 10345 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
• Adjustable locomotive acceleration
• short circuit and overload protection

This package includes:

• 1 track bumper with circuit board
• 2 insulated track sections
• 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 10345 will change the required distance. For example, faster trains require longer stopping distances.

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 10345 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.
