TrainMaster Command Control operations
Building a lash-up
T
rainMaster Command Control allows you to couple your Command Control-equipped
locomotives together, forming a multiple unit lash-up. Just like with the real railroads, lash-ups
allow you to pull longer trains and climb steeper grades. You will find that the lighting operates
prototypically—the lead unit’s headlight and interior lights are illuminated when the train is in
forward, and the rear unit’s headlight and interior lights are on when the train is in reverse. For
more information, refer to your TrainMaster Command Control manual.
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 switch must be set to RUN. See Figure 1
on page 12.
If you press a wrong button, start over with that particular unit. The assignment isn’t
saved until you press
SET
.
