I have respect for Viessmann products, and their German/English instructions are usually very straightforward to follow. What I am trying to achieve is simple point motor/ decoder linked to a CS2 keyboard in MM and the only thing I think I need to adjust is the address number The instructions (which are much much bigger than the item itself) seem to address just about every scenario on earth. I thought it would be simple point motor already connected to decoder with two wires ready to connect to the track! Will some one put be right in a simple set up instruction.

Prepare on the CS2 Keyboard tab, the switch you would like to insert, assuming it is MM (not DCC) 1- connect all wires (Yellow, Blue w. green ring, Blue w. Red ring) except brown to B (Red) output of your CS2 arranging so that later the blue wire with red ring can be disconnected 2- connect the brown to the O of your CS2 3- Push toe STOP button to have power 4- Select the switch on the CS2 keyboard you want to assign to this 4558 decoder and push both buttons (Straight, Deviating) 5- unplug the Blue with Red ring and plug it to the 0 of your CS2 Finished I hope this works Cheers Jean

I purchased 2 of the Viessmann predecessor 4554 but I had problems: they were noisy and ended up jamming / burning so I reverted to Märklin motors. I understand the 4558 are much better, reliable, no lubrication, little noise when compared with the 4554 but with 2 minor drawbacks: the additional electronics you have to lodge somewhere and the no manual operation (which I don't use except when jamming). Cheers Jean

Joined: 23/08/2015(UTC) Posts: 15 Location: England		Hello Realise this is a few months old but almost exactly what I’m looking for. I’m considering get the Biessmann 4568 but the connections and programming are still unclear to me. I don’t have a central station, I have a mobile station 2 or a 6035 control station. Is it possible to set these up without a CS? Thanks

The notice calls for a cable arrangement for programming, then issuing a command from your MS2 to a switch address and last to change the wiring so the programming is stored. MM or DCC are possible Cheers Jean
