Switching the shunting gear
The shunting gear can be switched on and off via the auxiliary function
F4. In the shunting gear mode the velocity of all speed levels is reduced
to ca. 50 % compared to the standard velocity. The change of the
setting takes effect immediately. In Motorola I format the shunting gear
cannot be activated.
Improvement of the driving characteristics
Locomotives with especially high current consumption or track sections
with bad contacts (e.g. some types of points) may give an
unsatisfactory performance after the mounting of the locomotive
decoder. You can improve the locomotive performance by soldering a
capacitor 100 µF / > 35 V to the points X1 and X7 (see fig. 1 and 2).
Analogue mode
In analogue mode the decoder can be run like a change-over switch. This
means the decoder reacts with a change of direction on the shift impulse
of the speed control knob, as usual. In analogue mode the lighting is
always switched on. It is switched depending on the direction of travel.
You access the analogue mode by pressing the direction switch of the
analogue driving transformer until the light of the locomotive starts flashing.
To get back into the digital mode, press the direction switch of the analogue
driving transformer again until the light of the locomotive starts to flash. Do
not hold the direction switch on too long, otherwise you perform a reset.
