Using Infra-red Function Module FB-C

The FB-C controls the following functions:

Connection 1 = Light 2 on
Switches on the interior lighting.
Light 2 can be used also as the control for a sound module or similar.

Connection 2 = Light 2 off

Connection 3 = Light 3 on
Switches on the interior lighting.
Light 3 can be used also as the control for a sound module or similar.
Light 3 is only available on the DC-CAR01 decoder.

Connection 4 = Light 3 off

Connection 5 = Increase speed by 2 steps
This can be used to stop a vehicle slowing down on an upward gradient.

Connection 6 = Decrease speed by 2 steps
This can be used to stop a vehicle speeding up on a downward gradient.

Connection 7 = Set speed to drive position 10

Connection 8 = Set speed to drive position 21

With this unit the you can switch vehicle functions and adjust vehicles’ speed.

Example, upward gradient:

On an upward gradient it can happen that the vehicle becomes too slow.
In this case you can increase the speed using LED 5.

An infra-red LED is needed. (the number marks the connection of the component)

Flat --> 5 --> upward gradient -->>

Note: The speed cannot be increased if the vehicle is already on drive position 28.

Example, downward gradient:

On a downward gradient it can happen that the vehicle becomes too fast.
In this case you can decrease the speed using LED 6.

An infra-red LED is needed. (the number marks the connection of the component)

Downward gradient --> 6 -- level -->>

Note: The speed cannot be decreased if the vehicle is already on drive position 1.

Example, travel at 30 mph:

Bottleneck or built-up area with a 30 mph limit.

An infra-red LED is needed. (the number marks the connection of the component)

Any speed --> 7 --> travel at 30 mph -->>

Example, travel at 60 mph:

Open road with a 60 mph limit.

An infra-red LED is needed. (the number marks the connection of the component)

Any speed --> 8 -- travel at 60 mph-->>
