Multi-Purpose Socket
The model has a "flat" multi-purpose socket, with a remo-
vable cover, on each end wall (Fig. 3 & 4). These sockets
can be used to provide track power to cars with lighting or
sound electronics.
Multi-Train System
The model is equipped with a factory-installed onboard de-
coder for the LGB Multi-Train System. It can be used without
modifications on analog or digital layouts. For operation
with the Multi-Train System, the model is programmed to
loco address 03. For information on programming the loco
address, see the instructions for various MTS components.
When operating with the Multi-Train System, you can remo-
tely control the loco's functions. Press the lighting button
("9" with remotes) to turn the loco lights on or off.
When operating with the Multi-Train System, the loco fea-
tures a "Back-EMF" function. This keeps the motor speed
constant (and under normal conditions the loco speed),
even when the load of the loco changes, for example, in
curves or on grades.
