Notes on digital operation:
• The first time the locomotive is used in a digital system (Selectrix
or DCC), the decoder must be set for this digital system. To do this,
the decoder must be programmed once in this digital system.
• Motor and control cars cannot be programmed simultaneously.
They must be programmed separately from each other and they
must be placed individually on the track for this purpose. Only the
address (the same as in the motor car) must be programmed in
the control car.
• The operating instructions for your central unit will give you exact
procedures for setting the different parameters.
• The values set at the factory have been selected to insure
trouble-free operation.
• This locomotive comes from the factory programmed for the
digital address „01" (Selectrix) / „03" (DCC).
