BL-2 Diesel Engine

DCS/DCC Switch

Your MTH PS3.0-equipped engine has a DCS/DCC selector switch located on the

underside of the chassis as shown below

. To operate the engine in DCS mode, ensure

the switch is set to DCS.
If you wish to run the engine in DCC mode, ensure the switch is set to DCC. If you

inadvertently leave the switch in DCC it won’t hurt anything, you just won’t be able to

communicate with your engine with your DCS system. Likewise, if you leave the switch

in DCS and try to operate the engine under DCC you may notice a humming coming

from your engine and you will likely notice that your DCC system’s overload light will

be on.

Programming Track (for DCC operation)

Your MTH PS3.0-equipped O Gauge engine can function on Programming Track outputs

from DCC systems. Most DCC systems can support the current requirements of the

engine as long as it’s not started up. If you plan on powering up the MTH engine on your

programming track, you may want to consider a DCC Programming Track Booster.

Loading Engine Firmware

Your new MTH PS3.0-equipped O-Gauge engine affords you the ability to load Engine

firmware. Loader version 2.30 or later will allow you to do this. Please refer to the Loader

program’s instructions for more details. So, as MTH releases new features or updates you

will be able to take full advantage without having to ship your favorite engine anywhere.

All new updates are available on our website. MTH will make announcements as they

are available. Not all updates will apply to all engines. NOTE: Requires a TIU w/ version

4.20 or later firmware, and requires Consumer Loader version 2.30 or later.

LED Lighting

Gone are the incandescent bulbs. Your new PS3.0-equipped engine has LED lighting.

MTH uses various colored LEDs to simulate the correct lighting on your engines from

the warm, yellow-orange colored light coming out of an old lantern on your favorite

steam engine to the high-intensity halogen lamp on the latest modern diesels, LED’s

allow for various, correct colors. Also, they require less power and do not emit as much

heat as incandescent bulbs.
