4.2 Selecting an Analog or non-decoder locomotive
A locomotive without a DCC decoder is called an Analog locomotive and is
run on address 0000. While an analog locomotive, with no decoder, is sitting
still on your digital layout, you will hear a “singing” sound. Once the analog
locomotive is moving, this sound will change and be less noticeable. To avoid
heat build up in your locos without decoders, Digitrax recommends that analog
locos
NOT
be left sitting on DCC powered track for long periods of time when
they are not running.
As with a regular DC system, only one analog locomotive can be controlled
at a time. If you run more than one analog locomotive at the same time on the
layout all of the analog locos will respond to the commands sent to address
“0000”.
4.3 Select a prior address using RECALL soft key
In loco selection mode when the
key shows “Recall”, pressing this key
will bring up the non-volatile list of the last 10
unique addresses used on this DT602
When in Recall Session Loco List screen, press-
ing a 0-9 numeric key with a 4-digit address to
the right will enter that number as the selection
address For example if you press the 6 key for
the recall screen shown to the right, then the
address 1000 will be entered as the recall selec-
tion address. The selection screen will go back
with this number and pressing
will com-
plete the selection of address 1000.
4.4 Releasing an address from a
throttle
When you are finished running a locomotive
address, it is best practice to release it from your throttle, so that it is available
for other throttles to select and run.
1. Use the
Throttle Knob
to make the locomotive’s speed zero (this option-
al step is strongly recommended as the loco will continue to move after
released if speed is not zero).
2. Press the
key to go into locomotive select mode.
3. The address will begin to blink in the display. Press the
key, this will
release the address from both the DT602 and the locomotive stack in the
system. The display on your DT602 will show the previously selected
address grayed out.
4. If you press the
key again, the DT602 will begin flashing the address
you just released. You can re-select that address by pressing the
key
or
you can enter a new address number to select.
