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.
This feature does not work at top
speed, because additional voltage
must be available to overcome any
added load.
If desired, numerous functions of the
onboard decoder, such as accelera-
tion, braking, direction of travel and
many others, can be programmed
using a PC and the 55045 MTS PC
Decoder Programming Module (see
Instructions for advanced users).
These functions also can be pro-
grammed with the 55015 Universal
Remote.
Pantographs
The model is equipped with electron-
ically controlled pantographs. The
rear pantograph raises, and the front
pantograph lowers automatically,
depending on the direction of travel.
The pantographs can be fixed in the
"down" position by snapping them
into their holders.
When operating with the Multi-Train
System, you can change the panto-
graph setting to run the loco with
both pantographs raised (see Multi-
Train System). Press the F7 button
to change the pantograph setting.
The selected setting remains active
even after the power is turned off.
Sound
This model features a digital elec-
tronic sound system. The volume
control is located underneath the
model on the left behind the first
power truck (Fig. 3).
All sound features described below
also can be controlled directly with
the LGB Multi-Train System (see
Multi-Train System).
Whistle: The whistle sounds auto-
18
matically when the locomotive is
started.
The whistle also can be triggered by
the LGB Sound Magnet (17050)
included with this model. The 17050
snaps between the ties of most LGB
track sections.
The magnet in the 17050 is under the
LGB logo. If the contact is installed
with the logo on the right side of the
track (in the direction of travel), it will
trigger the whistle as the model
passes.
Sounds after turning on the throttle:
When the throttle is turned to a low
setting, you first hear the main
switch. Then the air pump runs. The
air pump stops and the fan switches
on. When the throttle is turned up to
a higher setting, you hear the drive
sounds and the second, faster set-
ting of the fan. The drive sounds are
proportional to the speed of the loco.
Brake: To trigger the "squealing"
brake sound, reduce the model's
speed slowly. This requires a skilled
hand and a little practice.
Standing sounds: With the Multi-
Train System, you hear the fan while
the loco is standing.
To hear the standing sounds with
analog operation, a low voltage
(approx. 6.5 volts) must be main-
tained on the tracks. Turn the throttle
to a low setting so that the loco does
not yet start, but you can hear the
sounds.
Hint: To obtain standing sounds with
analog operation while the throttle is
turned off and when reversing the
locomotive's direction, the 65011
Sound Unit Power Storage must be
installed. Then you also hear the vac-
uum pump (see Vacuum Pump) and
the main switch (when parking the
loco). For questions regarding the
installation of the 65011, please con-
tact your authorized retailer.
