ROL
ESC MU’ing LOCO CONSISTS.
MULTIPLE LOCOS IN A CONSIST.
The
RCS-BEL
T
ROL
ESC’s
are capable of MU’ing multiple locos in one consist of locos.
You can add as many speed matched locos to the loco consist, as you like. Each loco must be bound to the
controlling TX. Follow the “BINDING” procedure described above on page # 4.
If the loco to be added has already been speed calibrated, there is no need to repeat the calibration step.
The
RCS-BEL
T
ROL
program permits reversing default direction & speed matching of locos. Settings for these
features are stored in the
ESC
so that any loco can be acquired by any TX. See page # 6.
HOW TO ADD LOCOS TO A CONSIST.
Turn the first loco OFF. Turn the second loco ON and drive it into position. Turn the first loco back ON.
The lock in feature of the system ensures the direction is set positively. Just make sure both locos are at zero
output before changing direction. To make sure the direction is set correctly for all locos in a consist, press the
direction stick twice from neutral. Once the direction is set it cannot accidentally change back to neutral.
DELETING LOCOS FROM A CONSIST.
Turn OFF the
“to be retained”
loco. Leave the
“to be deleted”
loco ON & drive it away, or,
rebind
it to a
different TX for use by another operator. See page # 4.

DO NOT
use the PWM ESC’s. Only the
RCS-BEL

#
ECL
-6RF
ESC
can be used with a QSI
®
sound
system fitted to a PnP socket inside an AristoCraft
®
loco. The #
ECL
-6RF
controls QSI
®
sound correctly with
outstandingly smooth slow speed acceleration & braking. The only practical way to use it is in a trail car with
the batteries etc. We recommend a minimum of 18 volts nominal. You can safely use up to 24 volts nominal.
Simply connect the output of the
RCS-BEL
T
ROL
ESC
to the pigtails on the back of the AristoCraft
®
loco.
For other brands of locos refer to the QSI
®
instructions. The track pick ups
MUST
be disabled.
You can use the QSI
®
as delivered with default “REGULATED THROTTLE CONTROL”. We recommend
resetting to “STANDARD THROTTLE CONTROL” with level 2 load
BEFORE
setting an idle voltage.
The QSI
®
sound system needs to have an idle voltage applied so that when the loco has stopped the sound
system is kept alive. The
RCS-BEL
T
ROL
system can be programmed to do this. Here is how to do it.
Once the TX & RX have been bound together you need to calibrate the loco speed as described on page # 4.
Once calibrated you now need to set the idle voltage which in effect is the same as setting the start speed.
With the loco switched on gradually apply throttle until the sound system comes ON. Note TX stick position
Continue to carefully apply throttle until the loco just begins to move. Once again note the stick position.
You need to decide at which point it is that best suits your application. We suggest the idle (i.e. start) voltage
should be set midway between the two stick positions you have just determined. Once you have determined
what the start voltage is to be, take the throttle stick back down to zero and set the direction to neutral.
Now go into
RCS-BEL
T
ROL
programming mode (see page # 6 section
3.1.
).
After entering programming mode, set the throttle stick position as recommended above.
Then push the direction (elevator) stick forwards once only. The lights will blink
ONCE
with the push.
Wait a couple of seconds for the lights to blink
ONCE
again indicating the new start voltage setting has been
stored in the system memory. Then move the throttle stick back to zero (OFF) position. i.e. Stick down.
Then turn channel # 5 OFF. The lights will blink three times and then go to all solid ON. i.e. Neutral.
The QSI
®
sound system will come on and you are now ready to operate.
CONTROLLING THE SPEED OF A QSI
®
EQUIPPED LOCO.
To control the loco see page # 7 section
4.1.
etc. The loco will
NOT
jerk when power is switched ON.
If the direction is wrong, simply swap over the two wires coming from MM on the
RCS-BEL
T
ROL
ESC
.
When stopped the sound will remain in idle.
CAUTION. DO NOT CONNECT THE OUTPUT OF THE
ESC
TO ANY NON QSI
®
EQUIPPED LOCOS.
TRIGGERING THE QSI
®
SOUND SYSTEM WHISTLE/HORN & BELL.
You will need to fit the
RCS-BEL
T
ROL
# FLIPPER
in series in the MM leads and connect the trigger to the
appropriate terminal on the
RCS-BEL
T
ROL
ESC
. See the special
# FLIPPER
wiring diagram.
One or the other of the sideways sticks will trigger the output functions. Only one half of the stick is used.
The stick should be moved one way very briefly to turn the Bell ON & very briefly again to turn the Bell OFF.
Move the same stick the same way & hold it to play the Whistle/Horn. Let the stick go & the play will cease.
