Enter the new address for the locomotive. The new address will be sent to the
locomotive and you will be returned to the normal display with the locomotive
selected and ready to run. Most decoders allow programming the address while on
the mainline. If you are using a locomotive with a sound decoder from QSI you will
need to turn off verbal programming acknowledgment (set CV62 to 0) for the
address to be set properly. If your locomotive does not allow setting the address on
the mainline you will need to set it on the programming track. You can press PROG/
ESC to escape out of setting the address without affecting anything in the decoder.
No commands are sent until you press ENTER after typing in the address.
