The two delays, similarly with other delays, can be set in 8ms steps. The default value for both is 25,
meaning 0,2s. The two threshold values are set in CV141=10 (12/ decoder type dependent) and CV192=6.
It’s mandatory that CV141 to be greater than CV192.
If the initial value does not provide good results at ABC detection, the optimal value of thresholds can be
changed experimental in the range 8-16. A too low value causes undesired erroneous detection, and too high
will make the detection difficult or even impossible.

Shuttle train operation (Penduling)
Shuttle train operation (also known as “Penduling” or “Push
-pull") allows you to cycle on a route
between two terminal stations repeatedly. Stopping and changing the direction of travel is done when
receiving ABC commands at terminal stations. DCC commands only determine the travel speed and the
enabled functions. There are two variants described below.
12.3.1.
Without intermediate stops
The Shuttle train operation without intermediate stops requires two separate sections at the ends of the
route that generate an ABC "Stop" signal corresponding to the direction the locomotive approaches (the
more positive right track). The locomotive arriving in the terminal section stops, inverts the direction
(including directional lights) and, after the waiting time, starts in the new direction. Activation is made by
