FLEISCHMANN multiMAUS 686701 Handbuch Seite 58

In a digital system on the other hand, the track always carries a fi xed constant voltage. The motor is con-
trolled by the control signals which the decoder converts into voltage values. These signals are made up
of "zeros" and "ones" and are therefore modifi ed. The smaller the steps – speed steps – are, the more
accurately the locomotive can be controlled. The DCC / NMRA standard, according to which the multiMAUS
works, recognises 14, 27, 28 or 128 speed steps.
Please refer to the operating instructions of your loco/decoder to read about the speed steps adjusted or
ask your local dealer.
Smart-Search function
The multiMAUS has a smart search function, which provides assistance when searching for an locomo-
tive. The function is available in both library mode and locomotive address mode.
Each locomotive address which you call up while using the system is entered into the internal smart search
list. If you search for a locomotive by pressing one of the arrow keys, the search procedure briefl y stops on
each locomotive in the list. This way, you can fi nd the locomotives you have used very quickly.
A maximum of 32 locomotives can be included in the list of smart search addresses. The list is of no benefi t
for a single locomotive. If you have called up more locomotives than what fi ts in the list, the oldest loco-
motive is deleted from the list. You delete all smart search addresses by restarting the system (disconnect
power supply or unplug the master multiMAUS).
You activate the smart search function using the menu item "USERINTERFACE" (see page 51, 3.2.5.).
Amplifi ers and Boosters
They supply the model railway system with the necessary voltage and conduct the digital control signals
from the multiMAUS to the locomotives, turnouts and other digital accessories.
X-BUS
The X-Bus is the connection between the digital components (multiMAUS, booster, interface etc.) and not
only supplies voltage but is also responsible for data exchange.
The master mouse always has a fi xed address, other devices search automatically for free addresses so that
you normally do not need to make any changes.
