Safety Notes; Important Notes; Functions; Multi-Protocol Operation - LGB Tm 2/2 Serie Mode D'emploi

Safety Notes

• This model may only be used with the operating system designed for it.
• Use only switched mode power supply units and transformers that are designed
for your local power system.
• This locomotive must never be supplied with power from more than one power
pack.
• Pay close attention to the safety notes in the instructions for your operating sys-
tem.
• Not for children under the age of 15.
• WARNING! Sharp edges and points required for operation.

Important Notes

• The operating instructions are a component part of the product and must therefore
be kept in a safe place as well as included with the product, if the latter is given to
someone else.
• The warranty card included with this product specifies the warranty conditions.
• Please see your authorized LGB dealer for repairs or spare parts.
• Disposing: www.maerklin.com/en/imprint.html

Functions

• This model is designed for operation on LGB two-rail DC systems with conventio-
nal LGB DC train controllers or power packs (DC, 0 - 24 volts).
• Factory-installed multiple protocol decoder (DC, DCC, mfx).
• The model is programmed with locomotive address 03 for use with the LGB Multi
Train System (DCC). The locomotive is automatically recognized in operation with
mfx.
• The operating sounds are on in analog operation.
• The functions can be activated only in parallel. Serial activation of the functions is
not possible (Please note here the instructions for your controller).
• Mfx technology for the Mobile Station/Central Station.
Name set at the factory: Tm 22
General Note to Avoid Electromagnetic Interference:
A permanent, flawless wheel-rail contact is required in order to guarantee operation
for which a model is designed.
Do not make any changes to current-conducting parts.
Mode of Operation Switch
This locomotive has a mode of operation switch.
Pos. 0 Locomotive stored on a siding without current
Pos. 1 Locomotive motor, lighting, and sound turned on
Sound
The whistle can be activated with the LGB sound activation magnet (item no. 17050).
The activation magnet can be clipped into place between the ties of most LGB track
sections. Place the magnet on the right side in order to activate the short whistle
blast when the locomotive passes over this location. The long whistle blast will sound
when the magnet is placed on the left side.

Multi-Protocol Operation

Analog Operation
This decoder can also be operated on analog layouts or areas of track that are
analog. The decoder recognizes alternating current (DC) and automatically adapts
to the analog track voltage. All functions that were set under mfx or DCC for analog
operation are active (see Digital Operation).
Digital Operation
The decoders are multi-protocol decoders. These decoders can be used under the
following digital protocols: mfx or DCC.
The digital protocol with the most possibilities is the highest order digital protocol.
The sequence of digital protocols in descending order is:
Priority 1: mfx; Priority 2: DCC; Priority 3: DC
Note: Digital protocols can influence each other. For trouble-free operation, we re-
commend deactivating those digital protocols not needed by using CV 50. Deactivate
unneeded digital protocols at this CV if your controller supports this function.
If two or more digital protocols are recognized in the track, the decoder automatically
takes on the highest order digital protocol, example: mfx/DCC; the decoder takes on
the mfx digital protocol (see previous table).
Note: Please note that not all functions are possible in all digital protocols. Several
settings for functions, which are supposed to be active in analog operation, can be
done under mfx and DCC.
Notes on digital operation
• The operating instructions for your central unit will give you exact procedures for
setting the different parameters.
• The values set at the factory have been selected for mfx in order to guarantee the
best possible running characteristics.
Adjustments may have to be made for other operating systems.
