keep the table stored even when it is not in use. Digitrax FX & 4th generation
decoders go one step further and give you 128 speed step resolution with load-
able speed tables.
LocoNet:
Digitrax’s powerful communications network especially designed for
model railroad operation.
Mid-Point Voltage:
the value programmed into CV06 specifies the voltage to
apply to the motor at speed step 15 in a 28 step system and step 7 in a 14 speed
step system. This allows you to make a quick adjustment to the motor
voltage/speed curve without setting up a loadable speed table.
MU:
Multiple unit operations. See Consisting.
N:
No, use this key to respond to DT400 text messages.
New (Loco Status):
DCC locomotive that has not been addressed by the sys-
tem. A new loco is selectable by throttles on LocoNet and is not refreshed.
Operating Mode:
14 or 28/128 speed steps. See also, Speed Steps, 14 Speed
Step Mode, 128 Speed Step Mode.
Operations (OPS) Mode Programming:
lets you program CVs in DCC locos
equipped with EPF decoders while they are on the mainline. A typical use for
ops mode programming would be to change the acceleration rate (CV03) or the
deceleration rate (CV04) of your locos to simulate the weight and braking char-
acteristics of the train to compensate for changing the number of cars and
power units in the train.
Paged Programming:
Digitrax preferred method of service mode program-
ming.
Physical Register Programming:
A primitive type of service mode program-
ming. This method is limited to programming 2 digit address, acceleration,
deceleration and start voltage.
Power Booster:
See Booster
Power District and Power Sub-district:
A power district is the power
wiring, components and equipment attached to that wiring, driven by a single
properly isolated booster. A power sub-district is a sub-division of a power dis-
trict.
