on the CAB-1 Remote Controller, both units respond together, allowing
the headlight and back-up lights to operate prototypically. Remember, you can always address
an individual unit in a lash-up using its engine (ENG) ID#.
You will need to build a new lash-up if you want to change the lash-up (TR) ID#, add an
additional locomotive, or assign new individual ID#’s to any part of the consist.
To build a lash-up, assign a unique engine (ENG) ID# to both units. Arrange the units on
the track and couple them together. The Command reverse unit switches must be set to
RUN/FORWARD.
If you press a wrong button, start over with that particular unit; the assignment isn’t
saved until you press
