aWESOME SLOW SPEED THINGY
There is an awesome trick that you can use to get even better slow speed running and
smoother operation. It’s called the Automatic Motor Tuning Feature. This feature will
automatically adjust the Back-EMF in most cases and give you phenomenal slow-speed
performance.
In order to use this automatic adjustment you need to use Ops mode programming, i.e.
programming on the main. Make sure your locomotive is in “forward” and that you have
lots of room in front of it on your mainline. Set CV 54 to a value of 0. Then get out of
programming mode and turn on the bell (press F1). We’ll say this again: Make sure you
have plenty of room in front of your locomotive and it is not headed for the layout edge
and the basement floor!!!
Your GMD-1 will quickly take off at full speed and gradually slow down to a stop while
the decoder reads the motor responses. You’ll have fabulous motor control after you do
this. If you ever have to reset your locomotive, you can do the automatic adjustment
again – it just takes a few seconds.
MORE INFORMaTION
While addressing the features that most modelers will need for normal operation, these
instructions have covered just a small number of the many customizable features of
your ESU LokSound decoder. For advanced users who want to more fully explore the
capabilities of the decoder we suggest downloading the ESU Loksound Select decoder
manual. This is available on the GMD-1 page in the Support section of our web site.
LIMITED LIFETIME WaRRaNTY
We will do our best to solve any problems or issues that you may have with your GMD-1
locomotive. If your locomotive has any defects that originate from the factory, we will
repair your locomotive using new components or replace it outright should a repair not
be possible. However, we can only replace your locomotive while we have additional
ones in stock. We normally keep spares for up to six months after a model is released. If
you purchased this locomotive or first opened it after that time, it is possible that we no
longer have any replacements and that a repair is the only option. Please give us a call
or write us an email, and we will see what we can do to help you out.
There are a number of things that this warranty can not cover. If your GMD-1 arrives with
a couple of loose grab irons or underbody bits, there is a very good chance that you can
effect a repair in less time and effort than it would take to contact us. Don’t be afraid to
do some model railroading! White glue, such as Weldbond, works wonders for securing
all sorts of parts and will not mar or damage your paint. However, if parts are missing
that is another story – call us or send us an email and we’ll send you some replacements.
