Setting up Routes: Step-by-Step
Automating procedures is the crowning achievement of their hobby for many model railroaders. With
the Central Station 3, creating routes, locomotive procedures, and the automatic control of entire layouts
has once again been significantly simplified. Thanks to Drag & Drop, the individual elements only have to
be pulled into the procedure bar. Monitoring is also significantly easier.
It is easy to start programming
Tap on the button
„Events” in order to
create new procedures
or edit existing ones. A
list will open up similar to
the themes locomotives
and items. If you do not
have any procedures pro-
grammed yet, there will
be a „+” sign in the first
square. You add a new
procedure by means of
the „+” sign or by means
of the menu item „Edit”,
„Add event”.
Button for creating new
events or for editing
events.
Here, you can turn the automatic
procedure temporarily off.
You start the entry for a
new procedure by means
of „+”.
Alternative to manual
entry: Record the proce-
dures in operation.
Used to enter data when
you want to run trains by
schedule.
Each procedure
can have a photo
laid under it
visually.
Custom assign-
ment of names
for routes, pro-
cedures, etc.
Potential for in-
tegrating sound
files easily.
After opening the menu item „Add event”,
simply pull the corresponding items into
the timeline – Signal 1 for example. The
route can be set up this way step-by-step.
When tapping on the item – Signal 1 for
example – the menu bar opens automati-
cally in order to set the desired function.
Integrating Locomotives
A desired locomotive or powered unit can
be drawn from the locomotive list similar
to solenoid items and it can be placed in
the timeline.
Sound files can be integrated at each spot on
the procedure by means of the „Sound” button.
Either the files can be located in the CS3 or
they can be imported by means of a USB stick
(right image).
The route can be assembled step-by-step
by means of drag & drop. Each individual
point (speed, signal and turnout settings,
etc.) can be adjusted individually in the
process (see the following pages).
