or operation in the LEGACY or Command Control environment, you will want to give your
locomotive a unique ID#. Your locomotive will respond to commands associated with its ID#
while all other units will disregard these commands.
This procedure is not necessary for
conventional (non-Command) operation.
1. Slide the program run switch on your locomotive to the PGM position. See
Figure 6 on page 8.
2. Place the locomotive on the track.
3. Connect the Command Base and plug it in.
4. Power up the track.
5. Press ENG on the CAB-1 or CAB-2 remote.
6. Enter the unique ID#. Choose any number from 1 to 98 that has not been
assigned to another locomotive (ENG). We recommend using a part of your
locomotive’s road number.
All LEGACY locomotives respond to ENG 99. We recommend that you reserve ID# 99 as a
"universal" ID#.
7. Press SET. The locomotive’s whistle will sound, or the headlights will flash if
the RailSounds sound system is off.
8. Slide the program run switch back to the RUN position.
The locomotive’s ID# has been set. Be sure to record the new ID# for your reference.
