2.
Turn the Control Knob clockwise to move the locomotive.
Pressing the
or
buttons on the keypad controls the direction of the locomotive.
The acceleration and deceleration of the locomotive is controlled via the Control Knob only.

Please Note:
If a digital locomotive is called up for operation the analogue locomotive will continue to run at the speed
set prior to the digital locomotive being operated.
It is not possible to program into the analogue locomotive acceleration or deceleration levels.
When an analogue locomotive is placed on the track it will emit a high pitched noise when stationary,
which will become louder when running, this is normal.
Only one analogue locomotive
can be run on a digital layout at anyone time.

Locomotive Function Control
If you do not intend to run any analogue locomotives on your layout it is recommended that DC
running capability is disabled. See page 19 regarding "resetting" the
Select
.
Turning ON/OFF F0.. (usually the locos lights.)

This is an example of "toggle" action switching.
Turning ON/OFF .. Decoder Functions F0 to F28...
The
Select
is capable of controlling a standard DC/analogue locomotive, i.e.. a locomotive that is not fitted with a
DCC decoder. However, this practice is not recommended, it is better to fit decoders to all your locomotives. This
feature is accessed by selecting address "zero" (00) on the
Select
controller.
Note: There is no locomotive actually programmed with "0" as an address, this is not possible. But, selecting
"0" on the
Select
tells the
Select
to control a DC (analogue) locomotive by altering the DCC signal on the track.
Make sure the desired locomotive's address is on the display.
Assuming that the lights are currently OFF. Quickly press the "Function" button. The lights will turn ON.
The display will then show for about 3 seconds the text “On” confirming the function action you have just
carried out. The display will then revert to the locomotive address.
To turn the lights OFF again press the "FUNCTION" button again "oF" will be displayed.
1.
With the desired loco's address displayed “on screen.” Simply enter the function number you wish to
control, then press the “FUNCTION” button. The function will turn ON or OFF depending on
it's current state.
2.
The display will then show for about 3 seconds either “
On
” or “
oF
” confirming the function action you
have just carried out.
The display will then revert to loco address.
Note: When using the
Select
to control functions, some consideration should be given to the type of function
being controlled. Functions, e.g. lighting, require a simple ON/OFF toggle function. The
Select
offers exactly
this type of function control. However, some decoder functions may activate for a short period of time and
then switch OFF. This may be the case with a "whistle" on a sound decoder. These types of functions
require momentary switching where the function is turned ON and then OFF again after a short duration.
On the
Select
once the function key is enabled it remains “ON.” If a specific sound is designed to play once for
a predetermined duration, the function key will need to be pressed again to return the
Select
to “function off”
status before it is possible to activate the same function again.
The
Select
unit is capable of remotely switching on and off up to 29 functions (F0-F28) which may be
incorporated in to some locomotives. For example the locomotive may be fitted with lights, engine running
sounds and a horn or whistle. Using the
Select
each function can be switched on or off.
