8461 Track for CarMotion Basic Module, Item 8460

The self adhesive magnetic tape is polarized on its surface (south pole on top). It leads the guiding magnets of the CarMotion vehicles. Depending on the type of road, it is integrated into a prefabricated road system or built into the layout plate with the help of a surface milling machine. Dimensions: L 500 x W 0.3 x H 0.1 cm.

The receiver coil enhances vehicles with inductive charging capabilities and necessary communication. It effortlessly clips onto the transmission block and is connected to the vehicle board through a two-pole plug connection. When used in conjunction with the InduktivCharger, item 8408, it enables unlimited runtime without user intervention. Vehicles can be powered on and off at inductive charging stations. The runtime-to-charging-time ratio is approximately 3:1, depending on system and vehicle conditions. Suitable for all CarMotion system vehicles without built-in receiver coils.Outer dimensions: L 2.4 x W 1.3 x H 0.27 cm

The InduktivCharger enables wireless recharging of vehicles through inductive communication. Vehicles come to a halt on the module and automatically position themselves over the charging coil, allowing charging currents to be self-regulated. These modules are particularly suitable for locations with longer dwell times, such as traffic lights or level crossings. Multiple modules can be interconnected to autonomously guide vehicles to charging positions with upcoming software updates. A control output for the motorized 2/3-way turnout, item 8448, which can also control servos, complements the capabilities. For trucks, the ratio of driving time to charging time is approximately 3 to 1, allowing for virtually unlimited driving time. The InduktivCharger can also switch vehicles with receiver coils on and off. Vehicles need to be retrofitted with the receiver coil, item 8440.Diameter charging coil: 40 mm, diameter electronics: 30 mm, height: 60 mm

The module allows the transmission of a variety of commands to CarMotion vehicles via infrared signals. These commands range from simple blinking to deceleration and stopping of CarMotion vehicles, for example in front of traffic lights. The two infrared transmitter diodes can be inconspicuously positioned alongside the road or placed horizontally in a small cut-out in the roadway or roadside. Like the vehicles, the module can be conveniently configured in the CarManager. All macros stored in the vehicles can be invoked by the module, including those that cannot be accessed through magnetic sequences for technical reasons. The two IR LEDs transmit different signals depending on the selected operating mode. One of the numerous applications is precise stopping in front of a traffic light or similar. The first IR LED is positioned some distance before the traffic light and sends the command for gradual deceleration when the traffic light is red. The vehicle then gently comes to a stop on an optional stop magnet (north pole). The second IR LED is located in close proximity to the traffic light and sends the start command when the light is green. The module is directly controlled by the Viessmann traffic light controller, items 5094 or 5095, or the level crossing items 5104 and 510) via the control input. The input also allows control of the module through a switch, relay contact, or DCC switch command using a suitable central control unit. Simple commands can also be generated by turning the module on and off, for example, to send blink commands only when a corresponding turnout is set.Board dimensions with cable outlet: ca. L 45 x W 5 x H 5 mmRecommended installation space (programming plug): ca. L 55 x W 5 x H 5 mmCable length to the IR LEDs: each ca. 300 mmIR LED dimensions: ca. L 2 x W 1.2 x H 1.2 mm

The permanent magnet holder is the ideal solution for testing the CarMotion system. Equipped with one or more magnets, the holder can be flexibly positioned to the right of the roadway. This allows you to precisely verify whether – and at which point – the CarMotion vehicle detects and executes defined control commands. Its sturdy design enables quick setup and easy repositioning during test runs, ensuring accurate results under realistic conditions.
