Driving and functions
If you have selected a locomotive from the library or are directly using the locomotive address, it is immedi-
ately ready to drive. You can determine the direction of travel and the speed by turning the large controller.
Both the direction of travel and a standstill are shown on the display screen above the locomotive name or
locomotive address.
If the locomotive is at a standstill (display "II"), the last direction of travel is also shown. Thus it is easy to
discern whether the locomotive lighting is switched on correctly, i.e. white light for the front of the train, red
light at the rear.

If another multiMAUS or Lokmaus is used to control a locomotive, the locomotive symbol flashes. See also
the chapter "The master-and-slave principle" on page 54.
The locomotive functions, e.g. the noises of a sound locomotive, are activated using the „function keys".
You can trigger the first 10 functions directly by pressing the corresponding keys. For functions F11 – F20 you
must press the respective function key together with the "shift" key. The display shows the activated functions.
In the figures above functions F1 and F4 are shown as examples. You can check the activated functions of the
second level (F11 – F20) by pressing the "shift" key.
In the following figure, F12 and F20 are activated. The arrow " " stands for the multiplier of tens, i.e. is
interpreted as "1" for F11 – F 19 and as "2" for F20.

See the operating manual for the functions which are available for your locomotive.
You switch the locomotive light on or off using the "Light / OK" key. The star " " at the bottom right of the
display lights up to confirm that the locomotive lighting is switched on.
