SEQUECED COTROL SECTIO
In this next section we will introduce you to three parts of the Legacy Control system that
work together.
LEGACY VELOCITY THROTTLE
MOMETUM
LEGACY SEQUECED COTROL
Together, these control methods are a new way to control your trains.
Operating a train with the Legacy Velocity Throttle enables you to control
whistle/horn, bell, independent engine brake, crew-talk, blow-down effect,
let-offs, loading, speed and more. This is all done through sequences that
happen when you trigger them with certain throttle moves.
Though it is always possible to control these effects through the Direct
Control method, the velocity throttle is capable of operating the effects
without looking away to the Direct Controls.
You have the choice of either method, or both methods at the same time.
In this section, you will encounter new terms ROLL, TRANS, ARRIVAL
& DEPARTURE TRIGGER, and GATE. Refer to the diagram to
understand where these conditions are on the speed graph.
Insert diagram 19 “MASTER SEQUECE” here
Insert diagram 19.2 “A&D magnifier” here
Insert diagram 19.1 “Master Sequence illustrated speed graph” here
These diagrams show the full 200 speed steps in the range of the Velocity
Throttle and the Lionel Legacy system. The “Master Sequence”
illustration and Display Window “Speed Graph” illustrate where all of the
different Conditions, Triggers and Gates are located. Become familiar
with this to understand what follows next in this manual.
