■
Green display shows:
Top bar: “LOCO”, number of addresses in recall memory and fast clock;
Center: loco address (or name
and
address), consist indicator “T” where applicable;
Bottom bar: battery and radio signal strength (only with MX31FU in radio
mode), soft key ID’s and applied speed steps (“s…”);
Complete cab (keys, slider, LED’s) is dedicated to the control of the activated
loco.
HOW?
♦
If the
LED’s
in the light bar next to the display are
scrolling up or down
,
follow
with the slider in the indicated direction until they stop scrolling. This matches the
speed slider to the actual speed of the activated engine. Alternatively move the
slider to zero and press the
S
key to stop the train.
♦
Control
the active engine using all cab elements: speed slider, direction key “R”,
Stop key “
S
”, keys “
MN
” (MAN) and
RG
(shunting) as well as all number keys
(1 … 0 = F0 … F9) as function keys; corresponding indicators in the
display and with LED’s above each key:
Dir
e
ction key, stop key,
speed slider (with light bar
to the left, not visible in this
picture)
The
light bar
(6 vertical LED’s next to the display) normally moves
with the speed slider. It also visualizes system controlled acceleration
and deceleration functions, indicates the direction the speed slider
has to be moved to “catch” the speed of an acquired engine and
displays speed limits (red LED’s labeled with L, U, H) provided the
loco decoder sends information back via the bidirectional
communication (= RailCom).
The
driving direction
is switched with the
direction key R
and indi-
cated in two ways: the usual engine related way with two LED arrows
marked “Fwd” and “Rev”. The arrows also change colors to indicate
active brake and stop functions during change of directions. The
second way to indicate direction is layout related and is shown with
two smaller LED arrows marked “W” and “E” (for West, East). These
indicators are only active if previously set in the LOCO menu or if the
required information is received from the decoder with bidirectional
communication.
To
stop an active engine
immediately, overriding any programmed momentum, use the
stop
key
S
.
