LGB Ge 4/4 III Serie Mode D'emploi page 9

Pantographs
This model is equipped with electronically controlled pantographs. The rear panto-
graph is raised and the front pantograph is lowered automatically depending on the
direction of travel. The pantographs can be fixed in the lowered position by clipping
them into the restraints.
When operating with the LGB Multiple Train System the locomotive can be set with
the F3 button so that both pantographs are raised (see Multiple Train System). This
setting will remain preserved after the layout is shut off.
Programming the Decoder
Numerous functions on the decoder can be programmed individually. To do this,
function values are programmed in registers (Configuration Variables - CVs). You also
can program the function values with the 55015 Universal Remote Controller.
• For normal operation, it is not necessary to change the function values.
• If programming results in unsatisfactory operation, you can reprogram the factory
pre-set values of most important CVs: Program register CV 55 to function value 55.
To reprogram the factory pre-set function values with the 55015, select program-
ming mode "P" (displays shows "P --"). Then input 6, 5, and 5 and press the right
arrow button. The display shows "P --" again: Input 5, 5, and 5 and press the right
arrow button again.
