can program the registers.
To do this, select the article no. 29750 (V100) from the locomotive
database and program the decoder as described for this article no. in
the instructions of the Central Station or the Mobile Station.
In general, the option of the register programming can be found in

Firmware Update
The decoder firmware can be updated. The update can take place
with installed decoder. To update you will need a PC with a serial
(COM) port, and a booster that is connected to the COM port of the
PC. To put the decoder in the update mode, the value
‘222’ must be
programmed into CV 255. The decoder is in update mode if, when
voltage is applied, the headlight of the locomotive lights up. Once
programming data is received, the headlights are flashing alternately.
If an error occurs, the light stays on permanently.
Attention: The update mode ends automatically after approximately
60 seconds, as long as firmware transfer has not yet started.
All CV and register settings are retained after a firmware update. This
applies even if new CV or register were added by the update. It may
happen that some CVs may need to be adjusted, due to changes in
firmware.
