ATTENTION: The motor is not designed for non-stop operation. Do not connect the manual release pushbutton directly to
the transformer! Do not operate the decoder on an electroconductive base! Risk of short circuit and destruction!
For programming press the pushbutton on the decoder (see picture) before connecting the decoder to the current supply.
Please strictly adhere to the following procedure:
2. How to programme a turnout or signal address on the digital station
The decoder has to be connected to the main track, not to the programming track. Important: While programming please
make sure that neither a locomotive with address 68 in the Märklin data format nor a locomotive with address 68 in the
DCC/NMRA format are activated on the command unit. Please check this before you continue to programme. In addition
we recommend making a restart of the command unit without deleting the existing database (ATTENTION: Do not make
a complete reset of the system! Please follow the instruction manual of your command unit!). Switch off the power on the
track (press button "STOP"). Keep the pushbutton on the decoder (see picture) pressed when you switch on the power
on the track again. The red LED of the decoder flashes now. The decoder can only be programmed with an address
group of 4 successive addresses (Example: 1 - 4, 5 - 8, 9 - 12, etc.). The decoder automatically recognizes whether it is a
Märklin/Motorola or a DCC address. Now enter the address for the digital dance floor as a magnetic item.
Important: The first address of the group of 4 successive addresses always controls the function. Send a switching
command and the red LED will go out (in our example: 1, 5, 9, etc.). Depending on the used command unit the highest
address which can be chosen in the Märklin/Motorola format is address 317 and address 2045 in the DCC format. Not all
command units send the complete address range. The decoder checks the switching commands while importing the
address. It may happen that you have to send the switching command several times, especially if various locomotives are
activated in different digital formats while importing. As soon as the red LED goes out, the programming of the decoder is
finished. To release the decoder it is necessary to change the digital format of the memorized magnetic item (digital tree)
on some multi-protocol command units. For this purpose call up the magnetic item and change the data format
(Märklin/Motorola <> DCC/NMRA).
Address 1 in a group of addresses: The 3 dances are performed successively, same as by pressing the red pushbutton.
Address 2, 3 and 4 in an address group allow you to directly choose the 3 different dance. Example for addresses 5 to 8:
address 6 trips the first dance, address 7 the second dance and address 8 the third dance.
3. Märklin Mobile Station 60652 (firm locomotive address):
1. Install a locomotive with address 68.
2. Connect the red cable to the center track and the black cable to the track. Important: Pay attention to the polarity!
3. Press "STOP" on the mobile station (power OFF). Now keep the pushbutton pressed on the decoder (see picture 2)
and press again STOP on the mobile station (power ON).
4. Red LED goes on and out.
The decoder is now programmed with the locomotive address 68. The button "illumination" releases the function and the
dancing couples show the three different dances successively.
4. ROCO Lokmaus 2 (firm locomotive address):
1. Install a locomotive with address 68.
2. Connect the black cable to the track.
3. Send address: For this purpose press button F1 several times.
4. Keep the button pressed on the decoder (see picture) and connect the red cable to the track (power ON).
5. Red LED goes on and out.
The decoder is now programmed with the locomotive address 68. The button F1 releases the function (the dancing
couples show three dances). Note: Please strictly adhere to this procedure to ensure that the address will be sent. Do not
use the button "STOP".
5. You do not remember your decoder address and have to make a decoder RESET
In case you do not remember your decoder address, you can repeat the procedure previously described. If you have
memorized a digital address in your decoder but if you want to analogically operate the tree directly with a model railroad
transformer, you have to cancel the digital address. For that purpose switch off the current and connect the pushbutton
for the analogue release. Keep the manual release pushbutton as well as the button on the decoder pressed at the same
time and then switch on the current. Now the digital address of the decoder is deleted and you can release the decoder
with the manual release pushbutton.
