Part 2 • Operation – Driving and Switching �� Despite its numerous options, operation of the multiMAUS is simple and intuitive. A concept which had already been successfully introduced for the Lokmaus models of the first and second generation. The following shows you how to operate the multiMAUS based on practical examples. -
Page 9: Entering A New Locomotive
• Calling up other locomotives already entered in the library (“scrolling”) �� Locomotives in the library are sorted in the order in which they were entered. You can of course change this order: Select locomotive These key combinations (press keys together) move the locomotive up or down in the library. You can check the new order for the library with the arrow keys. - Page 10 Display message Input Comment Confirm by pressing “OK.” �� The multiMAUS then switches to the locomotive address. The “suggested value” is displayed, in this case “3.” Change the suggested value by either using the “shift” key and one of the “arrow …...

Page 13: Selective Locomotive Stop
The locomotive stop is released by turning the controller, the locomotive starts to move again. Double Heading The new ROCO digital system also allows for double heading, which means controlling two locomotives in front of a train. Two locomotives are coupled and can be controlled centrally at once from one of the two locomotive addresses. -
Page 14: Double Heading Tips
Input Display message Comment The display depicts “EQUAL DIRECTION”. You now set up the direction of travel of the second loco- �� motive in reference to the first locomotive. The last selected direction of travel of the locomotives is not the decisive factor here but the position of the driver cabs. -
Page 15: Turnout Control
Turnout control You can use the multiMAUS to control up to 2,048 digital turnout drives with genuine turnout addresses without having to use up a locomotive address (as is the case with the Lokmaus 2 /R3). To do so, you can ��... - Page 16 Input Display message Comment After the “Locomotive /turnout” key has been pressed, the multiMAUS switches from drive �� mode (library or locomotive address mode) to turnout mode. The turnout last called up always appear. In this case, turnout “6”, position “straight-on.” The flashing cursor indicates that the turnout address can be entered.
-
Page 17: Routes
Routes The multiMAUS does not only offer the possibility to switch individual turnouts but can also combine several turnouts into one route and switch together by pressing only one key. A route is a distance covered �� by a train crossing several turnouts. For example, this can be used to move a freight train from a feeder track across sever turnouts switched with a single command and onto the main track without interruption. -
Page 18: Activating And Deactivating Routes
Input Display message Comment Enter the number of the first turnout of the … route, in this case turnout number 5 set to �� a branch line. After entering the number “5”, the number flashes until the next step of the route has been configured. -
Page 19: Quick Programming Of Locomotives And Decoders
If programming is carried out on the regular track and if more than one digital locomotive is located on that track (or turnout decoders other than the ROCO articles 42624 and 10775), the settings of all decoders in the system are changed with one programming command. This means it is possible to accidentally change all decoders to the same locomotive address, for example. -

Shortcuts” in Part 5 for additional help. Short Circuit and Overload If a system short circuit or overload occurs, the ROCO digital system in- dicates this in two different ways. Two symbols flash in the display of the multiMAUS , namely a lightning or thunderbolt symbol and the STOP sign. -

Even locomotives made by other manufacturers can be equipped with ROCO decoders if the necessary room for installation is available. If they are equipped with a digital interface the conversion is just as easy as with a ROCO locomotive. If you wish to install the 10745 load-controlled locomotive decoder, the locomotive will require a direct... -
Page 38: Connecting Several Controllers
Combination of Digital and non-Digital System Parts All ROCO digital locomotives can be driven on both digital and “normal” direct current systems without any complications. The locomotive decoder automatically detects the type of system it is on. It is therefore simple to use both types of systems together so that you can still use non-digital locomotives on the direct current section of the system. -

Switch off the system before installing a booster. Divide the system into supply sections. Disconnect the tracks electrically from each other in the respective places (on both sides!) wether using ROCO insulating rail connectors 42611 or 61192, insulated track or by sawing the rail profiles. Install a section of power track (e.g. 61190) in the new supply section and connect it to the “Track Out”... -

The ROCO 10769 terminal loop module solves the problems of a terminal loop in digital operation. Isolate the terminal loop with both poles on both sides by disconnecting the terminal loop completely from the rest of the system, using either insulated connectors or by sawing the rail profiles (see fig. 6 on page 93). It is imperative that the isolated section of track within the terminal loop is longer than the longest train which is going to travel ��... -
