Functions
• Built-in electronic circuit for optional operation with
a conventional DC train controller (max. ±12 volts),
Trix Systems, Trix Selectrix (SX1), and Selectrix 2 (SX2),
or digital systems adhering to the NMRA standards.
• Automatic system recognition between digital and analog
operation.
• No automatic system recognition between the digital sys -
tems.
• Triple headlights in the front, dual red marker lights in the
rear, that change over with the direction of travel.
• NEM close coupler mechanism and coupler pocket.
• The locomotive cannot be switched to operation from catenary.
Notes on digital operation
• When operating in a digital system for the first time (SX1, SX2,
or DCC), the decoder must be set to this digital system. To do
this, the decoder must be programmed once in this digital
system (example: change the address).
• The setting done at the factory does not permit operation with
opposite polarity DC power in the braking block. If you want
this characteristic, you must do without conventional DC
power operation (DCC: CV 29 / Bit 2 = 0).
Safety Notes
• This locomotive is only to be used with the operating system
it is designed for.
• This locomotive must not be supplied with power from more

your operating system.
