running on that throttle. Double click the L Throttle knob to reverse
in the same way.
Use the L or R Reverse Keys to reverse direction:
Press the L
& R
Reverse Keys to reverse the direction of the locos
selected on the respective throttles.
The R Direction Indicator under the R Loco Icon
in the LCD will indicate
the direction of the loco.
If you change direction while a loco is moving it will slow down to 0 speed
and then speed up to the commanded speed according to the decoder’s pro-
grammed CV values for deceleration and acceleration.
You can set up (program) each decoder with acceleration and deceleration rates
that simulate the scale effects of braking the train. Then when you command an
instant reverse, the system will simulate braking by slowing down the locomo-
tive at the programmed deceleration rate, come to a stop & then accelerate at
the programmed acceleration rate in the opposite direction.
