Viessmann 5224 Digital Control Module
The control module for 2 daylight signals one main signal and one distant signal with LEDs and a common plus pole or with incandescent lamps, provided they do not draw more than 200 mA in total. Therefore it is suitable for all Viessmann signals and also for signals from other manufacturers except for the Viessmann signals with the new multiplex technology. It can be activated in conventional mode via the push button panels 5545, 5546 and 5547 or via a digital signal with Marklin Motorola or NMRA DCC the decoder is part of the module. The control module 5224 is suitable for the new Viessmann signal bus and can be confi gured for the following applications:• Daylight signal with two or several aspects: A two-aspect signal with the aspects proceed and stop need the push button panel 5547 (for 4 signals) or a digital address. A signal with three or four aspects with the additional aspects proceed slowly and shunting permitted need the push button panel 5546 (three aspects, two signals) or 5545 (four aspects, two signals) or a digital address.• Yard signal or block signal: When confi gured as a block signal the module responds automatically to the status of the corresponding track sector. This works only in conjunction with track occupancy detectors with continuous output e.g. the isolated track of the Marklin M-track or with a track occupancy detector 5206 for two-conductor track sectors. Per signal sector up to two track sectors are required. In this mode the module changes automatically to proceed if the following sector is clear (un-occupied). If one of the two sectors is occupied, the module switches to stop.• Its own distant signal or distant signal on the same mast: The signal module controls the main signal and the corresponding distant signal or the distant signal of a following main signal mounted on the same mast. In that case the distant signal will show the dark aspect when the main signal shows stop.• Interrupt track supply or switch on brake generator when stop aspect is shown: With the relay for automatic train control 5228 the module can stop trains automatically either by interrupting the track voltage in front of the signal or more prototypically with the digital brake module 5232 (Marklin Motorola) or a brake generator (for NMRA DCC).• Signal with aspects stop and proceed slowly:If required you can confi gure the module to permit these two aspects only. In that case the module can be activated via the push button panel5547 or a digital address.Regardless if the module is triggered by push buttons or track contacts the logic always assures that the red button has preference if two or moredevices provide confl icting commands.Soft change of signal aspects.
