OPERATING YOUR LOCOMOTIVE
1) Use <<T and T>> keys to select the cab number that you assigned to the
locomotive that you want to operate. The locomotive’s name & road number will
be displayed on the top line along with SU-, indicating that this is operating as a
single unit locomotive.
2) Use the up and down arrow keys (p and q) to increase and decrease the
locomotive’s speed.
3) Use the Right Arrow key ( u) to go forward and the Left Arrow key (t) to run
backwards.
While it is preferred that you stop you trains gradually by using the down arrow
(q) key you can stop the selected locomotive quickly by pressing STOP/ENTER.
You can now add additional locomotives following these same procedures but
using a different Link Address for each new locomotive.
Controlling two locomotives (trains) independently, at the same time
1) Make sure that both locomotives have been identified in the transmitter, that
linking has been successful and that the locomotives have each been assigned a
Cab Number.
2) Place each locomotive on the track, separated by some distance .
3) Use the <<T and T>> keys until the display shows cab number, name and road
number for the locomotive that is in front.
4) Use the UP Arrow (p) key to start it running slowly in a forward direction.
5) Select the other locomotive with the <<T and T>> keys. Use the p and q keys
to get it running.
Note that the displayed speed for both locomotives may not be the same when they
are actually running at the same speed as it can vary from locomotive to locomotive.
You can continue to operate each locomotive independently by switching from one
CAB to the other using the <<T and T>> keys and then make changes in speed or
operate accessories.
That is all there is to get up and running. With practice you will become a master
at controlling your trains. When you are ready to take the next step please read the
advanced section of this manual to learn how to make the most of the Revolution TE.
