5.1.1

Previous Lokmaus Systems

All ROCO digital devices are based on RocoNet technology can be connected to the multiZENTRALE
include:
multiMAUS, Lokmaus 2 /PowerMouse™ /Lokmaus R3 10760 /10790 /10860 /10792, 10792, Keyboard 10770,
▪
RouteControl 10772;
die ROCO-Booster 10762 und 10765;
▪
the feeder tracks 42517 (ROCO LINE), 61190 (ROCO geoLINE);
▪
and all ROCO add-on devices. The transformers 10718, 10725 and 10850 (ROCO) and 6811, 6812, and 681301 (Fleis-
chmann) are suitable voltage supply units.
The previous ROCO booster 10761 and 10764 with multiMAUS and /or Lokmaus 2 are not designed for concur-
rent use with the multiMAUS
components connected with one another using adapter tracks. These adapter tracks must be switchable and
their electrical connection must always be from the direction of the incoming train to the track section in order
to reach a different section.
Use of the ROCO interface 10785 is no longer necessary since the multiZENTRALE
a PC via the integrated USB port. The software needed – "Rocomotion" – is included with set 10832.
5.1.2 Add-on Devices and Decoders
On a system controlled by the multiMAUS
also vehicles with decoders from other manufacturers, as long as they are in line with the NMRA /DCC standards.
Even locomotives made by other manufacturers can be equipped with ROCO decoders if the necessary room for
installation is available. See the operating manual for the respective decoder.

5.2 Locomotives without Decoder and the multiZENTRALE

Do not use locomotives without a decoder with the ROCO Digital System. The locomotive has a completely differ-
ent voltage supply and would cause very disruptive, high frequency noise. There is also a danger that the motors
would become damaged.
It is imperative that you do not connect a normal transformer on the same circuit parallel to the digital controller.
This would destroy the multiZENTRALE
You can also equip existing locomotives with a locomotive decoder. This is a quick and easy process when using
ROCO locomotives with a digital interface because the decoder simply has to be plugged into a socket inside the
locomotive. You do not need to perform any mechanical work on these locomotives because the space for the decoder
is already provided. Instructions on how to install a decoder are also included in the manuals for these locomotives.
Even locomotives made by other manufacturers can be equipped with ROCO decoders if the necessary room for
installation is available. If they are equipped with a digital interface the conversion is just as easy as with a ROCO
locomotive. If you wish to install the 10745 load-controlled locomotive decoder, the locomotive will require a direct
current motor or the existing all-current motor will need to be converted to direct current before installation.
