tus code of the locomotive and to select it to run on the active throt-
tle knob.
5. If the loco address is in-use on another throttle or in a consist when
you press the ENTER Key

and select the loco on the active throttle, the DT400 will prompt you

be selected and will remain part of the consist when the status is
edited.
15.2 Note for Non-Digitrax Decoder Users
If you have a decoder that does not have advanced 28/128 speed step mode
available, you must “status edit” that locomotive to standard 14 speed step
mode before running it with your Digitrax system. Changing the decoder’s sta-
tus will cause the system to handle this decoder as a 14 step decoder. Status
editing does not reprogram anything in the decoder.
16.0 Sw (Switch) Mode
Switch mode is used for sending commands to accessory decoders and for
changing option switches in your LocoNet system. The most common use of
switch mode is for operating turnouts.
