hen your non-powered locomotive has been programmed as part of a lash-up with a
number of Command-equipped powered or non-powered locomotives, the locomotives
will respond together, allowing the headlights and back-up lights to operate prototypically.
The direction of the train will indicate which headlights are on.
To build a lash-up, assign a unique engine (ENG) ID# to each unit. 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 SET on the CAB-1.
Start with the powered unit.
1. On your CAB-1 remote controller, press TR, then enter your lash-up ID# (1-9).
No other track or lash-up should be assigned that ID#.
2. Enter the lead unit’s unique ID#, then press F.
3. Press SET beneath the front panel of the CAB-1.
Complete the lash-up by adding the non-powered unit.
1. On your CAB-1 remote controller, press TR, then enter your lash-up ID# (1-9).
2. Enter the last unit’s unique ID#, then press R.
3. Press SET beneath the front panel of the CAB-1.
Only the ElectroCouplers at the front of the lead unit and at the rear of the last unit
will operate when the locomotives are addressed as a lash-up. Any ElectroCouplers
located between the locomotives will not function when you address the lash-up.
