INSTALLATION: Disassemble loco and tape the frame around the motor spring
contact as Fig1 indicates. The motor spring contact should not touch the frame.
The decoder replaces the original circuit board of the locomotive and should fit in
the same location. Assemble one half of the frame first, installing the decoder,
motor, driveshafts, bearings, trucks, and frame spacers. Gently place the other
frame half on top of the completed half, checking clearances and if there is any
binding of the drive mechanism. Correct any trouble spots at this point. Also
check to make sure the motor brush tabs are not touching the frame halves and
the clear tape is correctly positioned at the motor brush tab points to avoid
shorting out the decoder. Now you can install the insulated bolts and nuts to
secure both frame halves together. Apply tape on the chassis under the speaker
to prevent the speaker from touching the chassis.
DCC OPERATION: The decoder has been factory programmed with address #3, 28/
128 speed steps and maximum top voltage. This decoder has start up and shut
down feature. You must press any function key to start up the engine before
operating the loco. To shut down the engine you must bring the loco to idle and then
press F8 3 times. Please refer to the CV Chart to explore other features of the
decoder.
TROUBLE SHOOTING: Whenever the decoder doesn’t work, please use the program
track to program CV# 125 with value 1 to restore the decoder to factory settings. This
should bring the decoder to life with address #3. This decoder should perform well with
all DCC systems.
