Important Installation Instructions; Functions - Roco 10895 Mode D'emploi

Important installation instructions:

• Digital decoders are modern high-quality electronic products and are to be treated with special care:
• Coming into contact with fluids (e.g. oil, water, cleaning agents ...) place the decoder at risk.
• Incorrect treatment with metallic objects (e.g. screwdriver, tweezers...) can cause mechanical/elec-
trical damage to the decoder.
• Rough treatment (e.g. pulling wire strands, bending components) can cause mechanical/electrical
damage.
• Soldering work on the decoder can result in failures occurring.
• The decoder (with the exception of PluX16 or PluX22) is to be adhered to a surface which is as large
GB
as possible, using the enclosed electrically insulating adhesive strips.
• When adhering the decoder, please take care and ensure that no decoder parts which protrude from the
adhesive strips can come into contact with metal parts (cut the adhesive strip to size if necessary).
Installing the decoders
1. Remove the locomotive housing as described in the operating instructions for the locomotive which are
enclosed with it.
2. Disconnect the dc power plug from the locomotive interface. Place the plug in a safe place! Should any
faults occur at a later date, this can be used to determine whether they have been caused by the loco-
motive or the decoder.
3. Insert the decoder plug into the existing locomotive interface. When doing so, ensure that the mark "1"
or "*" are on the same edge of the plug as the mark on the interface.
4. Use the enclosed double-sided adhesive strip to attach the decoder at the place provided for this purpose
by the locomotive manufacturer, or adhere it to a metal surface which has good thermal conduction,
should nothing be specified. First of all, adhere the adhesive strip to the metal surface and then carefully
press the decoder onto the adhesive strip.
5. Replace the locomotive housing, ensuring that the wire strands are not trapped.
Operating parameters for the decoder
The decoder has numerous setting possibilities (e.g. its address) which determine its actions or enable
conclusions to be drawn concerning its actions. These settings are or will be stored in so-called CVs (CV =
Configuration Variable, please refer to the table at the end of these instructions). There are CVs which only
store a single piece of information (referred to as a "byte"), and others which include 8 information units
(bits). The bits are numbered in sequence from 0 to 7. You require this knowledge for the programming. The
programming of the CVs can be very easily carried out with a DCC control device which is able to program
"CV-direct" in bytes and bits. The programming of some of the CVs is also possible via the register program-
ming. All of the CVs can also be programmed on the main track in bytes as long as your control device is
able to carry out this programming form (POM -Program on Main). (You will find more information on this
subject in the operating instructions for the digital control device concerned.)
Decoder Reset
Should you not know what to do at any time, you can restore the works settings at all times: simply program
the value 08 in the CV 8.

Functions

The decoders provide a different number of connectable functions in addition to the engine and the head-
light. Please refer to the information concerning your locomotive, the required decoder and which function
is installed in your locomotive.
