BASIC OPERATION
After making sure everything is properly assembled and power has been applied as
instructed, aim the Remote at the Receiver and press the
SU/SD
Button on the
Remote. (
NOTE
: Because this is an infrared line-of-sight remote, you must aim the
remote at the receiver in order to send signals to the track.). Once pressed the
Engine start up sound will begin as well as the lights and smoke unit will turn on.
Now press the
+
end of the Remote's Throttle Control and the train will start to
move forward. Each time you press the
+
end of the Throttle Control the train will
move faster and faster. Please see the Operating Buttons Using the Handheld
Remote for more information on using the Remote to operate the train.

DCS Remote Commander
4
* The DCS Remote Commander will
ONLY operate locomotives equipped with
M.T.H. Proto-Sound 2.0 and 3.0 systems.
Locomotives equipped with Proto-Sound
2.0 must be the 3 volt model. The 3-volt
model can be distinguished by its square
battery charging jack typically found on the
bottom of the locomotive or under any
removable hatches on the top of the body.
Locomotives will ONLY operate with the
DCS Remote Commander if they are set to
the factory default settings. If the Factory
default settings must be reset, the reset
procedure - in some cases - can be done
with the Remote Commander by following
the procedure on page 7 of this manual. If
that procedure fails to reset the locomotive,
then a conventional transformer (like the
M.T.H. Z-500, Z-750, Z-1000 or Z-4000)
can be used by pressing the bell and whistle
buttons in the order described on page 7 of
this manual.
