throttle off and then on again will not allow the engine to enter the next
reverse unit phase and instead keeps the engine in the current locked
out phase.
To lock out the engine into one of the three positions, simply enter that
position using the transformer throttle or direction button. Once in the
desired direction, remove the locomotive from the track and slide the
ON/OFF switch located on the bottom of the chassis (See Figure 11) to
the OFF position. This locks the engine into the desired direction.
Sliding the switch back to the ON position resets the DCRU® reverse
unit into its normal reverse unit cycling phases.
Note: Once the DCRU® reverse unit is locked out and an hour or more of non-use has
passed, the reverse unit may cycle into any of the three directional states. Should this occur,
the ON/OFF switch should be reset to the ON position to regain normal operation. If the
operator desires to lock the engine out in another direction state, repeat the above steps to
do so.
Using the Z-750 With Self-Recharging, Battery
Equipped After-Market Sound Systems
When using the Z-750 transformer with after-market digital sound systems
employing a self-recharging battery backup system, operators should be
aware MTH does not recommend leaving the engine in neutral with the
power on and the throttle above the setting shown in Figure 10 for an
extended period of time. If you are recharging the battery found in these
after-market sound systems with a Z-750 transformer while in the neutral
position, MTH recommends the throttle be positioned as shown in Figure
10 for optimum charging power.
