Lenz 22600 BM1 Block Section Module

The BM1 has been designed for the simplest and therefore most cost-effective solution for stopping at a signal. The application is incredibly simple. If the signal is at "STOP”, the track voltage is directed via the BM1. The BM1 generates an asymmetry in the otherwise symmetrical digital voltage. This asymmetrical signal is detected by the new GOLD series decoders. The result is a gentle braking of the train until it comes to a halt, optionally with the set braking delay or set braking distance. If the train approaches the signal from the opposite direction, it simply continues because the asymmetry is detected depending on the direction of movement. If the signal changes to "CLEAR", the BM1 is bridged by the signal switch and the train accelerates at the speed set in the decoder to the DCC instructed speed.
