bers as hexadecimal simply press the R throttle knob and you will see the CV
value change to the hex equivalent of the decimal. Hex numbers are displayed
as xnn. For example the decimal value of 006=the hex value x06. The deci-
mal value 011= x0B. The ability to toggle between decimal and hex effective-
ly gives you an instant conversion table.

teristics you might want to use for your locomotives. Your decoder manual has
a complete listing of CVs that are available in specific decoders, what they do
and suggested values for each CV.
1. Place the decoder equipped locomotive you want to program on the
programming track If you are using operations mode programming,
the loco you want to program can be anywhere on the layout but it
must have a decoder that is capable of ops mode programming
installed.
