The default address assigned to the LokSound decoder is 3. Sim-
ply set your controller to this locomotive number and place it on
the mainline. If everything is set up properly, the “DD-1” should
react as shown on the table 2.1. If you use a DCC system which
supports RailComPlus®, it will most likely ask you to change the
locomotive address. All function button icons will be displayed
correctly after the assignment of the new address.
2.5. Analogue operation
“DD-1” can be used conventionally (=analogue) on DC or AC
layouts. However, the number of the available functions is highly
restriced:
• Driving functions forward – backward – backward
• Light changes
• Motor sounds (automatically)
For analogue operation you can use any DC power supplies. Please
note that a trouble-free operation with electronic driving control
devices (PMW operation) is not guaranteed due to the huge vari-
ety of systems available on the market.
