Addresses In M4 Mode; Turning Off Data Protocols Not Needed - Esu LokPilot V4.0 Instruction Manual

Address Settings
Example: You select the address 50 in CV 1 for a class 50 locomo-
tive. You want to set 3 consecutive addresses. They are 51, 52 and
53. They will then switch the consecutive functions whenever you
call up theses addresses on your 6021:
Name Address
Base address 50
Consecutive address 1 51 (50+1)
Consecutive address 2 52 (50+2)
Consecutive address 3 53 (50+3)
Please make sure that no other vehicle is programmed to any of
the consecutive addresses (in this example 51 to 53). Otherwise
you will inadvertently run several vehicles at the same time!
The consecutive addresses are activated with bits 3 and 7 in CV
49. For reasons of compatibility they are not next to each other.
The relationship is as follows:
Bit 7 Bit 3 Meaning
0 0 No consecutive address
0 1 Consecutive address 1 active 8
1 0 Consecutive address 2 active 128
1 1 Consecutive address 3 active 136
First read out the value in CV 49 (default value: CV 49 = 1) and
the value shown in column 4. If, for instance, you wish to activate
3 consecutive addresses then you must write the value 136 + 1 =
137 into CV 49.
Consecutive addresses are only active in Motorola® mode.

Even in an mfx® compatible system addresses are needed for con-
trolling locomotives. However, they are assigned automatically by
the command station when the locomotive reports to it for the
first time. The addresses can neither be programmed manually by
the user nor can they be read out.

9.5. Turning off data protocols not needed

If you know for certain on which layouts your locomotives will be
"travelling" you can turn off the data protocols not needed. This
is useful if multi protocol command stations lead to problems. CV
47 is responsible.

Ex works all protocols are active (CV 47 = 15). In order to establish
the value of CV 47, simply add all values in column 3 and write
them into CV 47.
For safety reasons the protocol used for writing into CV 47 cannot
be turned off. If you use, for instance, an ESU ECOS and write
CV 47 in DCC format then the DCC protocol will remain on. If
you use a 6021 then, of course, the Motorola® protocol cannot
be turned off.
Programming with the ESU LokProgrammer cannot be turned off
either.
