Features: Switching Speed, Normal Direction of
Travel & Scaleable Speed Stabilization (Back EMF) Features
Switching speed
is controlled by CV54. The factory setting is 000 for OFF. To
turn on the switching speed feature, program CV54 to a value of 001. When
this feature is on, use F6 to activate and deactivate switching speed. When
switching speed is ON and F6 is ON, the switching speed feature is on. With
the feature ON, the throttle’s target speed is effectively reduced by about 50%
and the effects of accel and decel programmed into the decoder are reduced by
1/4. This is useful for yard switching operations.
Normal Direction of Travel
is controlled by CV29. See your decoder manual
for additional information on the settings for CV29.
The intensity, or droop, of
Scaleable Speed Stabilization (Back EMF)
is con-
trolled by CV57. The factory setting for this feature is 006 which is suitable for
most locos. You can adjust this value in the range of 000 for OFF to 015 for the
maximum effect. Consult your Digitrax Decoder Manual for info about CVs 55
& 56 and their effects on scaleable speed stabilization.

Silent Operation and Torque Compensation
The factory settings in the decoder provide silent, smooth operation of your
locomotive under most conditions. For more information about these settings,
please see the Digitrax Decoder Manual or our website.
Digitrax Transponding CV61
Digitrax Transponding
is controlled by CV61. The initial factory set value is
000 for
OFF
. To turn
ON
transponding, program CV61 to a value of 002. This
allows you to use Digitrax transponding to keep track of your rolling stock.
When transponding is enabled, the front light of the locomotive will flicker
slightly to indicate transponding signal is being communicated. For optimal
transponding operation, we recommend that you hook up the forward and rear
lights as shown in the wiring diagram (
Figure 1
).
Decoder Reset CV08
Decoder reset
lets you reset all CV values to the initial factory settings. To
reset all CV values, program CV08 to a value of 008. You also have the option
of resetting all values except the 28 speed step tables. To do this, program
CV08 to a value of 009.
