MAUS
The turnout is switched at the moment you press one of the arrow buttons. The setting of the turn-
out is also saved. For confi rmation, the fi rst free digits after the “W” are set as “
0” (of course only for
1-, 2- or 3-digit turnout addresses).
The indication of the turnout position in the display does not in any way imply feedback from
the turnout drive. Whether the turnout has actually been switched can only be determined at
the turnout.
You can now either leave turnout mode by pressing the Locomotive / Turnout button or call up and
switch the turnout by entering another turnout address.
If you call up another turnout address, the insertion mark fl ashes alternately with the entered digit
until you have switched the turnout using the arrow buttons or confi rmed with the Light / OK button.
Example
: You want to drive a locomotive (current driving direction left) over the branch of turnout
no. 24.

Note
After pressing the Locomotive / Turnout
button, the
multi
MAUS
changes from driv-
ing mode (library or locomotive address
mode) to turnout mode.
The last turnout called up always appears,
here turnout “6”, “straight” position.
The fl ashing insertion mark indicates that
the turnout address is ready for input. Use
the “2” and “4” function buttons to enter
address “24”.
If the turnout has never been switched,
the complete turnout symbol appears in
the display.
Pressing the right arrow button switches
the turnout. Depending on the turnout
drive used, you may hear an acoustic con-
fi rmation. The free spaces between “W”
and the address “24” are fi lled with “0”.
Note
: Pressing the button too long
can damage or destroy older turn-
out drives that do not feature limit
switching!
Pressing the Locomotive / Turnout button returns you to driving mode (library or locomotive address
mode).
