Conventional transformer operations
Operating your locomotive in the conventional environment (continued)
1. Place your locomotive on Lionel or Lionel-compatible O-36 or larger track.
2. Power your locomotive at 12-18 volts with your alternating current (AC)
transformer.
Power your locomotive with an alternating-current (AC) transformer only.
Powering your locomotive with a direct-current (DC) transformer, or in excess
of 19 volts AC, may result in damage to sensitive electronic components. 60 HZ
AC is required. Do not power with 50 HZ AC.
3. Wait three to eight seconds as your locomotive determines whether it
is in a conventional environment or a TrainMaster Command Control
environment.
When the locomotive has determined that a TrainMaster Command Base is not connected
to the track, the locomotive’s headlight will illuminate and the LEGACY RailSounds sound
system will start. You are ready for operation in the conventional environment.
4. Move ‘em out!
Press the
DIRECTION
button on your transformer to sequence your locomotive through
the repeating pattern of operations: forward, neutral, reverse, neutral, and so on. You may
also briefly turn off track power to advance the locomotive to the next operating state.
Adjust the throttle until your locomotive moves at your desired speed.
When placing your locomotive on your layout for the first time, it will start out in
neutral. Thereafter, it will start in forward after every power interruption lasting five
seconds or longer.
We recommend that you operate your LEGACY diesel locomotive with The
Odyssey II Speed Control System turned on.
You may choose to operate your
locomotive without speed control by placing the Odyssey II Speed Control System switch to the
“NO ODY” position. See Figure 1 on page 12.
Use the
HORN
and
BELL
buttons on your transformer to activate those features. Refer to
page 31 if your transformer is not equipped with those buttons. Adjust the volume using the
volume control knob located under the roof top hatch. Refer to Figure 1 on page 12.
