4. Operation with the R/C Speed Controller
The operation is simple. By pressing the buttons on the Pocket Remote, you can select the
direction of motion, speed step, switch the accessory output and trigger an emergency stop.
1 x
= Forward driving direction, speed step 1
2 x
= Forward driving direction, speed step 2, and so on, up to 28
If you are already driving forwards with the locomotive, you can use the button
to increase
the speed (speed steps). By pressing
, you can decrease the speed.
You can press the buttons briefl y, which only changes one speed step at a time, or you can keep
the buttons pressed, which causes the speed to change continuously.
Using the included transformer in the 35028 set, the R/C Controller adjusts the track voltage in 28
steps from zero to full-voltage, in both directions.
1x
= Reverse driving direction, speed step 1
2x
= Reverse driving direction, speed step 2, and so on, up to 28
If you are already reversing with the locomotive, you can use the button
to increase the
speed (speed steps). Press the button
to reduce the speed.
= Accessories on/off
This toggles on/off the fi xed DC accessory outputs on the R/C Controller.
= Emergency stop
Notes on Operation:
The starting response of each locomotive is different. Locos with decoders or other electronics generally require a higher voltage on the track before
starting to move. In some cases, the arrow key may need to be pressed several times (or held down) before the train starts to move.
Also, the terms “forward” and “reverse” are used here only for reference. As with any analog DC throttle, depending on which direction the train is
facing on the tracks, pressing “forwards” may cause the train to move either forward or reverse.

and accessories.
• Only connect the Power Supply to a 120 Volt grounded electrical outlet.
• Unplug the Power Supply from the outlet before connecting electrical devices. Danger of short circuit and/or electrical shock.
• Never connect an electrical device to two or more Power Supplies!
• Unplug the Power Supply from the outlet and disconnect all electrical devices from the Power Supply before attempting any cleaning. Clean only with a soft cloth,
dampened with water if necessary. Do not use chemicals or excessive water.
• Never touch the exposed metal ends of the output wires when the Power Supply is plugged in.

5.2 Safety & warning information
The remote control system has been designed and approved exclusively for radio control of model trains. The construction and operation of such models requires
special knowledge, technical care, technical understanding and careful, safety-conscious behavior. Errors during assembly or operation can cause considerable
damage to property and personal injury. As manufacturers and sellers, we are unable to monitor the operation of our products. Therefore we do not assume any
liability. Technical defects of an electrical or mechanical nature can lead to unexpected operating behavior, which can cause serious damage or injury! Even oper-
ation of the receiver system without activated transmitter can lead to this effect. Protect your remote control system from dust, dirt and moisture. Do not expose the
devices to excessive heat, cold or vibration. Operation may only be carried out in the specifi ed temperature range from -15°C to +55°C. Always check your remote
control for damage to housings, cables and connections.
