Operation
2.1 Function
This locomotive has a built-in
systems-/digital electronic circuit
and offers the following features:
• Optional conventional operation
(AC power with 32 VA transformer or
DC power [max. +/– 18 volts DC]),
operation with Märklin Delta
(only with the 6607 Delta Station),
Märklin Digital (Control Unit) or
Märklin Systems (Mobile Station
or Central Station). This locomotive
is not designed for operation with
locomotive controllers for other
systems (example: pulse width
control, operation with the
Central Control 1 (6030) or similar
systems).

• Automatic recognition of conven-
tional operation and multi-train
operation. The choice between
AC or DC power in conventional
operation is set manually on the
circuit board.
• 80 Märklin Systems / Digital
(4 Delta) addresses can be set
with coding switches. Address
set at the factory: 78.
• Adjustable maximum speed.
• Adjustable acceleration/braking
delay. The electronic circuit for the
locomotive is designed in such a
way that the braking delay will not
work in conventional operation.
• Headlights change over with the
direction of travel in operation with
the Control Unit, the Mobile Station,
or the Central Station and can be
turned on/off. During conventional
operation the brightness of the
headlights depends on the speed
of the loco-motive. The headlights
are on constantly when the loco-
motive is operated with the
Delta Station.
• Only in operation with the
Control Unit, the Mobile Station,
or the Central Station: Tank loco-
motive sound effects that can be
turned as well as the sound of a
locomotive whistle or a locomotive
bell separately.
• Minimum radius for operation:
1.020 mm / 40-3/16".
• This model has been developed
for operation on the Märklin 1
Gauge track system. You incur
your own risk operating it on other
track systems.
• Built-in smoke generator, can also
be turned off in Märklin
Systems/Digital operation
