Loco Radio Adaptor (MRLA)
Thank you for purchasing your Mtroniks Loco Radio Adaptor (MRLA), this unit has had the benefit of careful in-
the-
field testing and Mtroniks’ extensive experience of radio control equipment.
Dimensions: 95.00 x 55.00 x 30.00mm Weight: 100.0g
Caution
Do not plug a battery into your MRLA. The MRLA takes its power from its connection to the ACI/DCI main unit
and then powers the radio receiver. Connecting an
additional power source to the MRLA’s radio channels
could cause damage to it, or to the ACI/DCI unit that it connects to.
This system is not suitable for use with any system servos. Please contact Mtroniks is this is something you
might want to do.
Do not start the system until your transmitter is switched on, with all its channels in the centre position. It is
strongly advised t
hat each radio channel to be used is tested using the MRLA’s Signal Tester mode (see below),
prior to attempting to control a loco.
Safety is crucial, particularly with a potentially very large locomotive model. The loco must be supervised at all
times and fitted with an accessible power isolation switch. When unsupervised, the loco must be left safe and
without the possibility of tampering causing it to become operational.
