Using your AEC switcher’s Electrocoupler in the non-Command environment
Y
our AEC switcher is equipped with
front and rear Electrocouplers,
when in the non-Command environ-
ment, you must first couple a piece of
rolling stock equipped with Lionel mag-
netic couplers directly to your AEC
switcher. The magnetic coupler on the
rolling stock will then react to the mag-
netic field generated by a Lionel remote-
control track section (available separate-
ly). Place your rolling stock’s coupler
“trigger disc” over the central coil of a
remote-control track section and press
uncouple
on the controller. The magnetic
field pulls the disc downward, and the
coupler opens.
Your AEC switchers Electrocouplers will
NOT
open manually or by using a
remote-control track section
