Setting the address
SILVER decoders can be operated both with the basic
locomotive address in CV1 (range 1-127, the Digital plus system
only uses addresses 1-99) as well as with the so-called extended
locomotive address (range 100-9999), stored in CV17 and
CV18.
For the locomotive decoder to know to which address it is to
react, Bit 6 in CV29 serves as a switch between the two
addresses. If this bit is deleted (0), the 2-digit address from CV1
will be used; if this bit is set (1), the 4-digit address from CV17
and CV18 will be used.
When using the Digital plus command stations
LZ100
1
or
LZV100
together with a manual control LH100 or LH90 for the
programming of the address, you will not have to pay attention to
this division into the different CVs. Simply enter the desired
address via the menu "Programming on the programming track".
Enter the 2 or 4-digit address; the rest will be done automatically
by the system.
When using a
compact
or LZ100 up to version 2.3, you will only
use 2-digit addresses. In this case, you always enter the address
in CV1.
If a valid address is entered in CV1, Bit 6 in CV29 is
automatically deleted and the decoder set to operation with a 2-
digit address.
Ex-works SILVER decoders are set to address 03.
If, by mistake, an address greater than 127 is entered in CV1,
the SILVER decoder will automatically change the address to 03.
