Help to identify cable ends please

[granddad gnome]

Have been given an LGB 55055 transmitter, no cables or instructions. Have found instructions through the Dragon G Scale site, at www.champex-linden.de/lgb but now need to identify the cables needed as the end into the transmitter are obverse but the other ends are a mystery.

Hi Peter.

If you have one of those reels of grey cable (with a plug on both ends) that I gave to you, that will do the job. But not sure if it will work with your Massoth Z1200.
You may need one of these, a 8138001[style="color: #000000;"] DiMAX Adapter

Hullo Peter,

you just need to connect up the port marked LGB bus to a similar port on an LGB MTS Central Station for it to work? By the way, the 55055 is actually a receiver which works in tandem with the LGB 55050 transmitter that plugs into a LGB 55015/6 Universal/Loco Remote.

As Steve mentions, those grey CCTV cables he used to have work really well. I use one of them myself as an extension cable on my 55015 Universal Remote....

Steve is correct, you cannot directly connect a LGB 55055 Receiver to a DiMAX central station (there are exceptions).

You will need to use the http://www.gardenrailoutlet.co.uk/p/78/massoth-dimax-transducer < Link To 8138501 Transducer (not the 8138001 adapter) so that the LGB bus protocol is converted into the DiMAX bus protocol.

Yes connector marked 51070 is for connection to a 51070 only.

Re:Help to identify cable ends please

I must be honest with you but I am intending to sell it on e-bay, or any were I can get a decent price. As I am trying to raise money to but a heart defibrillator (app£1500) for the hospital that I had my open heart surgery at as they are very short of equipment. So I was making an effort to put together all the bits needed to operate it, I have printed off a full detailed manual, and I can now put together the cables so the next step is to value and try to sell same. I thank you both for your help again. I also have a new and unused Massoth Dimax PC Modul Number 8175101 and again this is going into my charity fund.

Might be worth seeing if those bits will sell here on the forum Peter....
