Transformer-Controllers
Combination 5006/5007, 5012 N
5006 The LGB Power-Pack
The Transformer 5006
is the most important basic component when con¬
structing a model railway layout, as it converts the
domestic 220 V AC mains voltage into a perfectly
safe low voltage supply for dnving the locomoti¬
ves and operating points and signals etc.
The Transformer 5006 supplies the voltage for
the Controller 5007 or 5012 N and also for opera¬
ting lighting and electronic switching devices. Se¬
parate windings are used for driving and swit¬
ching voltages.

The electronic controller in the signal box
offers an infinitely variable speed controller which

left and right-hand controller positions "4", which
provide 18 volts, the rotary knob can be further ro¬
tated over a provisional end-stop into the actual
end position "full power". In this position, the
layout is supplied with 22 volts D. C. which provi¬
des a welcome reserve power for open air
layouts. The controller is connected to the D. C.
connections of the Transformer 5006 by means of
the connecting lead (8). All connections being
made through quick-release terminals.

Description
Guarantee - Technical Terms
Transformer 5006
The Transformer 5006 is a powerful voltage
supply for all model railway layouts which require
driving, lighting and switching voltages (available
only in 220 V).
Fig. 1 The Speed Controller 5007 (or 5012) has
to be connected to the DC connection
clamps grey/grey. Output: 22 V, 2 A. The AC
connection ~, clamps 3-4, are for the operation of
lights and other switching units. Output: 17 V,
1,2 A.
It is also possible to operate a second track circuit
by connecting a second Speed Controller 5007
(see multi-train operation, page 3).
Practical lead connections 5006
by means of four large, quick release connectors.
Depress buttons fully to insert leads - release -
the leads are firmly clamped.
1 Low voltage side with quick release connectors
2 Twin cable connection between 5006-5007
3 Factory fitted wire link
4 Track connection "plus-minus", connectors 1 -2
5 Light or switch connection, connectors 3-4
6 Automatic operation for the advanced modeller.
Professional lead ends

iron, then the lead ends can be improved by tin¬
ning.
LED Control Centre
By means of the three LEDs, the following opera¬
ting conditions are indicated:
1. Mains voltage control (green), is lit when the
mains plug is inserted into the domestic supply
socket.
2. Overload indicator (red) for the 1,2 A AC ligh¬
ting and switching circuit voltage.
3. Overload indicator (red) for the DC driving vol¬
tage supply and is fitted with continuously ra¬
ted 2 A fuse which permits a short overloading
of max. 2.7 A for approx. 15 mins.
The LEDs 2 and 3 are only lit when the supply is
overloaded, at the same time the appropriate
supply circuit is protected by means of a circuit
breaker. In the case of a short circuit occuring, the
circuit breaker operates immediately.
Electronic Controller 5007
The Electronic Controller 5007 has no built-in vol¬
tage supply. It has to be connected by means of
the supplied connecting leads to the DC clamps
grey/grey of the Transformer 5006. For the ex¬
tension of a layout it is possible to connect an ad¬
ditional Speed Controller 5007 to the AC clamps
3-4, white/black.
Depending on the chosen connection the fol¬
lowing output is possible
Connection of the first Speed Controller 5007 to
DC: 18 V, 2 A, and an additional connection of a
second controller to the AC: 17 V, 1,2 A.
Practical Connections 5007
as for Transformer 5006, with six large quick re¬
lease connectors.
The connectors tautom.o are linked together,
when delivered from the factory, for normal ope¬
ration. For automatic operation, the link must be
removed and the "Control lead" should be con¬
nected to the input terminals (see automatic ope¬
rating circuits, page 4-5).
In the case of normal operation, (without automa¬
tic) this link must remain connected.
LED Control Centre
By means of two LEDs, the following operating
conditions are indicated:
1. Ready control (yellow) is lit when the Control¬
ler 5007 is connected to the Transfor¬
mer 5006 and indicates that the constant input
LGB
voltage is available.
2. The driving control indicator is illuminating on¬
ly slightly at center position. If the control knob
is turned in either direction the light will shine
lighter, depending on the speed of the locomo¬
tive, and will be brightest at full power.
An electronic cutout protects the speed controller
(5007) during overload or short circuit on the track
by power reduction. This is indicated by the near
extinguishing of the green operation control LED.
The red LED of the Transformer 5006 does not ill¬
uminate unless there is a direct short circuit bet¬
ween the transformer and the speed controller.
Regulation
is infinitely variable with voltage change-over
for backwards and forwards traction. The
central fixed off position of the control knob is
in the middle of the scale.
The set driving voltage is held constant, electroni¬
cally, so that an additional loading (hill climbing or
switching of additional devices) does not effect
the driving speed.
R = Shunting operation for Backwards - Stop -
Forwards
F = Driving range for normal operation
The Front plate of the Controller
has definite visible symbols for speed setting.
R and F for shunting and normal driving - a visi¬
ble aid for natural driving conditions.
Fig. 3 An LGB-locomotive with electronic device
stops within the shunting range whereas a normal
locomotive, continues to drive. In this manner, in¬
teresting shunting manoeuvers with two locomoti¬
ves on one track can be carried out.
Two functional keys bring additional driving
effects.
Braking key "Stop" (red)
The kinetic energy of a train is proportional to its
mass and to the square of the speed. This energy
must be eliminated during the braking operation.
With original trains, one can therefore observe
considerably long braking distances.
With model trains, this kinetic energy is compara¬
tively small so that they can be brought to a stop
with little or no braking distance. In order to repro¬
duce an original braking operation, an "electronic
flywheel mass", which is built into the LGB-Elec-
tronic Controller, replaces the non-existant kine¬
tic energy. This is automatically set into operation
when the braking operation is initiated by means
of the Braking Key "Stop" and not with the control
knob of the controller. After releasing the brakes,
(by releasing the Braking Key "Stop") a train
which is at a standstill will again reach the driving
speed which was previously set on the controller
after a short accelerating pehod.
Controlling a train by means of a controller
and brake, is far more exciting, due to the fact
that it is far more realistic.
After a little practice, it will be no pobleme to bring
your train to a stop exactly at the right spot at the
station platform. If you have stopped your train
too soon, you only need release the braking key in
order to drive again. By means of a series of short
operations of the braking key the reduced station
approach speed can be held constant.
Acceleration Key "Booster" (green)
for rapid acceleration. By means of a short keying
of this keys slow moving locomotive receives a
current impulse, which can be used to give a wa¬
gon an extra shove for coupling, during shunting.
During normal operation, the locomotive can be
driven at maximum speed when required, after
releasing the acceleration key the speed will be
reduced again to that which was originally set on
the controller.
