, STOPP&OFF - 

screen: 

Broadcast Stop (BCS) on track 1

, nor-

NOTE: 

 Press rotary knob VERY LONG  

 (8 sec) 

  

SYS OFF =    STANDBY:

 

In “STANDBY” all outputs are turned off, 
i.e. track and DC outputs, as well as the 
supply wires on the bus cables. There-
fore, also the controllers are turned off. 

ATTENTION:

 the command station 

itself stays active in “STANDBY”; the 
controller part stays active. For safe-
ty reasons, “STANDBY” shall only be 
used under supervision.

State of track 1: BCS - Broadcast Stop 
Preview on state after pressing T1 - OFF 

State of track 2 (below): normal operation stays. 
Changing state with T2 - BCS 

 

 

The STOPP & OFF screen can also be reached via the menu point STOPP & OFF (chapter 8.8). If this 

screen is called up from the menu, both track outputs are in operating state ON. To stop track 1, 

but-

ton 

1

 (

) has to be pressed, and for track 2, 

button 2 (MENU).

 

Broadcast Stop (BCS), voltage off (OFF), can also be controlled and cancelled via controllers, and are 

shown on their displays and and on the MX10’s display.  

 Button 1

 track-1 

   The states of track 1 and track 2 (independently 

                               or with individual keys each) can be switched cyclical: 

  Button 2 

 track 2                       

 

BCS

 (Broadcast Stop)  

  

OFF 

(voltage off)  

  

ON

 (normal operation)  

  

BCS

  

  

OFF

  

 etc. 

  Example:

     

                                                                     

 

 

As soon as both track sections are turned on again 

 (after 2 

sec) it switches automatically to normal operation, normal 

screen 

BLUE 

 

Press 

button 3

 (

 

to “not so normal” *) normal screen 

RED

  

*) 

“not  so  normal”  means  that  BCS  and  OFF  operations 

are 

NOT

 cancelled and therefore, the usually blue screen 

is 

RED

; the trains on track 1 do 

NOT

 start. 

This “not so normal screen” is used to reach AOS, MENU and LOCO with the buttons 1, 2, 3 (as 
in the “real” normal screen). This way, complete operation is possible, also if one of the track 
outputs is turned off or stopped. 

To get back to the “STOPP & OFF” screen from the “not so normal screen”: (to switch the states of track 
1 and track 2 with buttons 1 and 2) 

Press 

button 2 (MENU)

 

 shows MX10 MENU 

RED

 

     (Cursor on STOPP & OFF)

 

 

 

and again:

 

Press 

button 2 (MENU)

 

 normal screen 

BLUE

 

            

or

 

 

 

 

 Press rotary knob LONG (4 sec) 

 STOPP & OFF screen 

RED

 

      

Now, the states of track 1 and 2 can be switched cyclically in-
dependently.  

If you change from the “not so normal screen” via pressing the rotary knob long (4 sec) in the STOPP & 
OFF screen, consider the following: 

State of track 1: 

ON

 

 

BCS 

BCSe

 / 

OFF

 

 no change 

State of track 2: no change 

Means: if track 1 is ON, it is set to (Broadcast Stop) BCSe when entering into the stopping operation. 

Cancelling broadcast stop started by the rotary knob; going back to normal screen: 

 Press rotary knob 

 track 1 BCSe = 

ON

 and back to normal screen 

BLUE

   

  

 

 

 

 

T1  

  

T2 

ATTENTION:

 This is only valid if the rotary knob was pressed LONG in the normal screen to start 

broadcast stop (track 1 = BCSe and track 2 = ON) or if this state is called up (again) manually in the 
STOPP & OFF screen (by repeatedly pressing button T1 and T2).
