Programming Modes And -Procedures Of The Lokmaus - Roco Lokmaus 2 Handbuch

loco 98 only with 14. The factory default setting is 28 speed steps for all locomotives (this setting is
restored by the system-reset using C7). This setup is done by the menu C6 (see page 31).You can define
the general mode to 14 speed steps if there occur problems using the 28 speed steps mode.
The speed steps for the control of an individual locomotive can be changed in the running system very
easyly:
Select that loco and turn the knob to zero (middle position). Push the 'P' button and keep it pressed.
Now press additionally the arrow button 'up' or 'down'. The display shows you the actual valid setting.
One bar means 14 speed steps, two bars 28 speed steps and three bars indicate 128 speed steps. If
you press the button 'up' a second time the number of speed steps is raised, if you press 'down' it is
lowered. The new actual setting is shown in the display. The Lokmaus 2

at the end of the session or in case of an interruption of the power supply (only inside the master
Lokmaus 2 !).

If you only want to control the setting of the speed steps of a loco the knob doesn't have to be in the
position zero but then it can't be changed.
Important: It is recommended that you also change the setting of the decoder accordingly to the set-
tings of the Lokmaus
CV29 (see page 27). How to do this you find in the decoder's or locomotive's manual. If you don't find
any information there please contact the decoder's manufacturer. For the ROCO decoders you find a
list of features and settings at the ROCO Homepage. The newer ROCO decoders detect the speed-step-
mode automatically after a short run with different speeds. They don't need a programmation. If the
settings of the Lokmaus 2
not at all or the loco doesn't move. By a wrong setting the loco decoder cannot be damaged!
Remember that there are loco decoders that don't support all speed step settings (e.g. the old
ROCO loco decoders only support 14 speed steps). At a setting to 128 speed steps such a loco
doesn't run at all and if the speed mode is set to 28 steps the light flickers if the loco accelerates
or decelerates bat cannot be controlled by the Lokmaus 2

ROGRAMMING MODES AND
Before you start to program a loco decoder you should read the instruction to find out what parameters
and which values can be programmed and which kind of programming mode is required. An overview
for the ROCO decoders and the decoders of other manufacturers that we have tested you find in the
compatibility-list on our Homepage 'www.roco.cc/digital'. There you find a list of the facilities of the
ROCO decoders too.

Using the standard mode you can programm the loco address, the minimum speed, the acceleration
and deceleration, the maximum speed ant the CV29. Using the professional mode you can program
all important settings of the decoders by programming the CVs from 01 to 99 indicating values from
00 to 99.
There must be only one decoder in the system during the programming procedure (except the
digital turnout drive 42624). If there are more than one loco or switch decoder on the track or
connected to the amplifier all decoders are programmed simultaneously including switch-decod-
ers! By that way e.g. all decoders could be programmed to the same address! Therefore it is the
best way to program loco and switch decoders on a separate programming-track.
So first unplug all feeding tracks of your layout, second plug the programming track and then
start the programming procedure. Instead of unplugging you can install a two-pole-switch that
cuts the feeding of the driving area of your layout and only feeds the programming track (see
fig. 4 on page 37).
