Confirm your input with "OK". The entered value
will be taken over and the numerical keyboard is
faded out.
Tip: three-way turnouts and
signals with several aspects
This functional models require several
addresses. You only have to program the
first digital address. The Commander auto-
matically assigns the following address(es)
to the signal aspects and switch positions.
Connect the switch drive units / signals al-
ways to consecutive decoder outputs. Be-
gin with the first output and an odd number if
possible.
Adjustment of the position indication:
The displayed track diagram is schematic. In case
of curved switches it may occur that the represen-
ted position doesn't correspond to the real switch
position. You can adapt the correct position on the
track diagram then.
► Select one of the two options "normal" or "inver-
ted".
► In case of doubt try both and select the fitting
one.
Switching over the position:
The switching position of a conventional solenoid-
drive depends on the fact to which connexion jack
of the decoder the control cables are connected.
You can reverse the operating direction of a switch
respectively of a signal with the Commander. This
enables you to adapt the operating direction on
your layout without having to change the connec-
ting leads at the outputs of the decoder itself.
► Select one of the two options "normal" or "inver-
ted".
► In case of doubt try both and select the fitting
one.
Setting of the digital system:
You can define the digital format you want to use,
on the second side of the turnout- and signal editor.
You can choose the following formats by tipping:

Turnout- and Signal Editor
Adjustments
► Märklin-Motorola
► NMRA-DCC
► LSB
You only need the "LSB"-format when connecting a
decoder to the Viessmann SpeedBus. The control
commands will be transmitted in the quick Speed-
Bus-format to the decoder then.
Switching command
every time the system starts:
The Commander can execute a particular switching
command for every functional accessory every time
the system starts. This feature is useful to establish
coherent starting conditions in case that you ex-
ploit your layout in the automatic operating mode.
If there is no input here the functional accessories
keep the position they had when the system was
shut down.
Save the adjustments
► Save all adjustments by means of the touch
field "Save".
► Leave the turnout- and signal editor by pushing
the touch field "Exit".
Tip: Daylight signals
Daylight signal control modules
need a switching impulse like
conventional solenoid-drive de-
coder.
Occupation feedback by
conventional solenoid-
drive decoder
Conventional solenoid-drive decoders ( also
those of single switches) release a track oc-
cupation information in case that the track is
connected to a section controlled by a feed-
back module. It is therefore advisable not to
connect the decoder to the track for power
supply. Effect power supply of these devices
always by a separate digital circuit line.
