The Controller Knob
The controller knob will alter the speed of the loco
and its direction. On turning the knob, one will
feel a slight click, each of which corresponds to
exactly one speed level. By endless rotation of
the knob, without end stop, when changing
locos, the TWIN-CENTER will automatically take
the stored speed setting of the newly selected
loco.
The Display
The large background illuminated LCD display
will indicate to you the exact running situation at
any time.
Data Format
Speed
Individually indicated at each side is the indicati-
on of each controller of the data format, loco
addresses, speed and direction of the locomotive
currently under control.
Information about the chosen operation mode is
displayed in the centre.
7.2
Loco Addresses
The individual locomotives of a digital control
system are called up by their so-called addres-
ses. By keying in a specific numerical sequence,
the individual decoder built into each loco will
then recognise it.
Each decoder will only react to its own specific
address, so that only that particular loco with that
address can be spoken to.
7.2.1
Setting Loco Addresses
If any vehicle is to be operated by the TWIN-CEN-
TER, then it must be called up under its own
decoder address.
