Operator's Manual. Just like DCS, you can also operate each engine as its own
individual engine. With this in mind, you will need to perform the following
operation to ensure each engine (A-unit or B-unit) has its own unique DCC
address:
1. Set the first engine on the track, flip the DCC/DCS switch to DCC and apply
DCC power
2. Call up engine address 3 on your DCC handheld
3. Press F3 to start the engine up
4. Set the address to something other than 3. Refer to the Basic DCC Instructions
in this manual or your DCC system's manual
a. NOTE – You can also use the extended address. However, it is
important that you do NOT use the same address, extended or short,
for more than one engine
5. Remove track power
6. Repeat the same process (steps 1-5) for all the engines that are going to be run in
a Consist. Ensure each engine has its own, unique DCC address
7. Set up the Consist in either the Old or Advanced method as described in the
DCC section of this manual
If you remove the MTH electrical couplers and apply the Kadee-compatible or
other type of coupler you will no longer have remote control of your couplers. The
sounds will play when you hit the Front or Rear Coupler Function button but the
couplers will not open.
