OPERATION
Preparation
Attach the engine to the tender:
- Plug the wiring cable (Fig. 1)
from the engine into the socket
on the tender.
- Slip the coupling hook on the
engine over the loop on the ten-
der.
Attention! The cable can be
damaged by rough handling.
When disconnecting the tender,
do not pull on the cable. Pull on
the plug only.
Operating Modes
This model has a four-way power
control switch mounted inside the
cab (Fig. 2, 3):
Position 0: All power off
Position 1: Power to lights and
smoke generator
Position 2: Power to lights, smoke
generator and motors
Position 3: Power to lights, smoke
generator, motors and
sound (factory pre-set)
Multi-Train System
The model is equipped a factory-
installed onboard decoder for the
LGB Multi-Train System. It can be
used without modifications on
analog or digital layouts. For oper-
ation 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 remotely
control the loco’s functions. Press
the lighting button (“9” with
remotes) to turn the loco lights on
or off. Press the function buttons
to control the following functions
1: Whistle signal “crossing” (2
long, 1 short, 1 long blasts)
2: Brake sound
3: Bell
4: Air pump
5: Flickering firebox off/on
6: Whistle (1 long blast)
7: Smoke generator off/on
8: Sound off/on
With a Loco Remote or Universal
Remote, press the numbered loco
function buttons. With an MTS
Train Mouse, press the loco func-
tion button the matching number
of times. For example, to trigger
the bell, press button “3” on the
Loco Remote or Universal
Remote. If you are using a Train
Mouse, press the function button
three times to trigger the bell.
When operating with the Multi-
Train System, the loco features 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. 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
acceleration, braking, direction of
travel and many others, can be
programmed using a PC and the
55045 MTS PC Decoder Pro-
gramming Module (see “Instruc-
tions for advanced users”). These
functions can also be pro-
grammed using the 55015 Uni-
versal Remote.
Sound
This model features a digital elec-
tronic sound system. The volume
control is located inside the cab
above the firebox door (Fig. 1).
All sound features described
below also can be controlled
directly with the LGB Multi-
Train System (see Multi-Train
System).
