Programming information
The Switch-It
cannot
be programmed on your programming track. It is always
programmed while connected to the mainline track. This decoder can be programmed
by all systems that support accessory control using the procedure below.
To program switch "A" to a new address using any DCC system:
1) Connect wires from the track to the decoder
TRK
connections.
2) Connect a short "jumper" wire from the
PA
terminal to common as shown below.
3) Use your DCC system to throw the accessory (switch) number you want the
Switch-It to use as its
new
address.
To throw a switch using the NCE or MRC system:
Press “SEL ACCY”
Type in the accessory number followed by “ENTER”
Push “1” to throw the switch.
To throw a switch using a Digitrax system:
Press “SWCH”
Type in the accessory number
Push “OPTN” to throw the switch.
To throw a switch using a Lenz system:
Press “F”
Press “5”
Type in the accessory number followed by “ENTER”
Push “+”
4) Remove the jumper wire.
Do
not
leave the jumper in place after programming or you won’t be able to
control the switch.
To program switch "B" to a new address using any DCC system:

TRK
connections.
2) Connect a short "jumper" wire from the
PB

3) Use your DCC system to control the accessory (switch) number you wish the
decoder to use as its address for the
SWB
output. (see step 3 above)
4) Remove the jumper wire.
Do
not
