Section 5 Assigning and Using ID Numbers
u
37
Road and Engine ID numbers allow you to split your engines into groups, and
then select and run engines within that group. It is a faster and more logical
way to select an engine.
You can set up groups or "Roads" any way you want. Perhaps you want all your
steam engines in one group, diesels in another. Or you may want all your
Lionel engines in one group, MTH engines in a second, and Weaver engines in
a third. Or you can use actual road names.
For example, say you have three New York Central engines, three Santa Fe
engines and four Union Pacific engines. Give each group a Road ID Number,
(like Road ID 3. for NY Central, Road ID 4. for Santa Fe and Road ID 5. for
Union Pacific), and each engine an Engine ID Number (#1-#3 for NYC and SF
and #1-#4 for UP).
Note: We suggest you save Road ID numbers 1 and 2 for future use as
Temporary ID numbers. We will explain why later in this section.
It's a good idea to make up a table so you can keep track of the numbers you
assign to each engine in each Road. For example:
Actually, make two lists and keep one in a safe place. Once you assign a Road
and Engine ID Number, your engine will remember those numbers indefinitely,
until you change or erase them. You can also attach a label to the bottom of
each locomotive with its Road and Engine ID number written on it like this:
(4,2). The first number is the Road ID number, and the second number is the
Engine ID number.
To actually assign Road and Engine ID numbers, follow the instructions given
in Section 6, RESET Positions #15 (Road ID Set) and #16 (Engine ID Set).
Before selecting and running these engines using the Road and Engine ID
numbers, be sure all Temporary ID numbers are clear using RESET Position
#3.
Selecting the engine you want to run is very similar to selecting engines with
Temporary ID numbers, except that both RESET Position #0 and #1 are used.
You select the Road number using RESET Position #0, and the engine itself in
RESET Position #1. For example, say you decide to run your Lionel 208 Alco
from the list above. After doing a RESET, you are in Position #0. Press the
horn button 4 times to select Road ID #4, Santa Fe. All the engines under this
Road ID number will now turn on. (If you interrupted the power now, all the
