The train count is needed for 2 reasons:
1. Manage different creeping speeds for up to 5 trains. (sensor mode only)
2. Send proper signals to attached YardMasters to correctly fire turnouts.
For example, a 3 track siding using 2 YardMasters wired in parallel would
have a train count of 3, since 3 trains will be controlled.
A factory reset will set this to 2 trains.
When running a simple back and forth this value can be anything.
Programming:
1. Make sure all three sensor inputs are open.
2. If not already in programming mode turn the top speed dial to zero.
(fully counter-clockwise.)
3. Slowly turn the top speed dial clockwise until the sensor LED turns GREEN.
This indicates secondary programming mode.
(Skip this step if already in secondary programming mode)
4. Press and hold button #3.
5. Each orange flash counts the number of running trains.
Release the button when the desired number of flashes have occurred.
The number will be echoed back when the button is released..
Repeat this procedure if you want a different value.
When finished with all programming, increase the top speed dial clockwise to MAX,
and then down to a desired top speed or creep speed if necessary.
All programming values are stored in flash memory and saved until re-programmed again.
NOTICE:
A factory reset will set the train count to 2
