LOCO
is accessible from most operating modes

LOCO
(new vehicle)
LOCO
is the controller
’s main operating mode
where locos (trains) are operated from.
The operating mode
LOCO
offers
different display representations:
The possibilities depend on which GUI elements for theactive vehicles are present
(i.e. defined, which is NOT always "visible"):
- always present: die vehicle
address
,
at the beginning usually assigned automatically with a speedo
(most often with a green dial, which can be changed in the
vehicle template address 16383),
- optional: a
Name
(added in the
LOCO IN
screen when entering the address or with
A
+
A
),
- optional: a
Speedo
(select from various dials
, or “No Speedo”; from
ADDR SPEEDO
, with
E
+
2
),
- optional: an
Image
(from
ADDR IMAGE
, after address input or later with
E
+
4
)
- always present: the
Function Icon
table (from
ADDR FUSY
, or later with
E
+
5
),
the GUI elements (if any) can be displayed (or hidden) on the screen according
to individual taste
, or
arranged differently.
These display modes can be selected via
TOUCH
screen (alternatively also via the
LOCO
menu); this
applies in principle:
TOUCH the GUI-Element
the touched element changes size larger <> smaller.
Text field (Name & Address) larger - smaller, Image larger - smaller, Large speedo
– small digital display
(the rest of the GUI elements are displayed in an appropriate way (or not when there is no space)
The only GUI element that CANNOT be changed by
tapping the touch screen
is the function icon table
(in this case,
TOUCH
is used to switch the functions themselves); the function icon panel is displayed
only when "address & name" AND "picture" are made small OR when large picture AND the digital
speed are displayed instead of the speedo dial.
EXAMPLES
