“singing” caused by the DCC track signal when it is applied to ana-
log locomotives. Once the analog loco is moving, this sound will
change and be less noticeable. (Digitrax recommends that analog
locos not be left sitting on DCC powered track for long periods of
time when they are not running.)
2. Check the Track Power Indicator on your DT400’s LCD to be sure
that track power is turned on.
3. Activate the DT400’s right throttle knob “R” by turning it a 1/4 turn in
either direction or by pressing down on the R Throttle knob once.
The R Address will start flashing. If nothing is selected on this throt-
tle it will flash
“SEL”
.
4. Press the LOCO Key
. The LCD will show the last address used
and the current decoder status of that address. The DT400 gives you
two options for choosing the address you want to run: throttle knobs
or direct keypad entry. Either use the R Throttle knob to dial up
“00”
in the R Address display or press 00 on your keypad. Press the
LOCO Key
again to select address 00 on the throttle. The
icon and the address will be blinking until you complete your selec-
tion by pressing the LOCO Key the second time or exit the loco
selection mode by pressing another key to begin another throttle
task. The EXIT Key can be used at any time to return to Fn mode
for normal loco operation.
This illustration shows
what will be on your LCD
when you press the LOCO
Key to select an address on
the R Throttle if address
“00” was the last address
selected on the R Throttle
and where no address has
been previously selected for
the L Throttle.
As you browse through the
decoder addresses, the dis-
play will show the current
status of the address.
