Page 6: Connecting A Pickup Shoe
With the decision to install a WD-PWxxx decoder into your wagon, you have also opened up the possibility of using the TCCS system from T4T. This innovative digital technology requires a thor- ough understanding of the new functions. Even if you have an extensive know-how and a lot of experience, it is essential that you read this manual. -

Page 8: Basic Features
The decoder is controlled via T4T train bus and TCCS. Its functions can be activated by any stand- ard DCC-systems (e.g. Arnold Digital, Lenz Digital Plus, ROCO digital is cool, Uhlenbrock Intel- libox, Zimo MX-1, etc). -
Page 9: Wd-Pwxxx And The Dcc Protocol
Do not use electric light bulbs. In particular with long trains it can come to the overload of the train bus and with it to the compulsive disconnection. T4T offers suitable luminous means for 16 - 20 V. If LED's are connected, a preresistor has to be switched in series. Resistance values in the area of from 1 to 5 kOhm are suitable according to the LED model. -

Thus it is not necessary that each wagon that shall be lit has its own railway siding. Most production models do not have their own tracking shoes and upgrading them is mostly diffi- cult and leads to bad riding qualities. -
Page 11: Wd-Pwxxx And The Train Identification (Tram & Lissy)
Please note that when a new vehicle is added to the train set the transmitting station may have to change, e.g. when a new car is added at the head of the train in direction of travel. The transmitter will be activated only when the new wagon has been identified (see chapter "LD-1x and T4T Train (TCCS)"). -

Speed steps 0 through 50 are supported.

If speed step 0 is selected, all cars will be addressed. If the locomotive has only cars coupled to it on one coupling end, the direction indicator is meaningless. If the locomotive is located in the middle of the train set, the direction of travel is interpreted in such a way that the direction of travel means traveling foward and thus that those cars are addressed which are coupled to the driver's cab end 1 of the locomotive.

The software versions will be required by T4T support in case of a technical problem.

Page 34: Wd-Pwxxx Update-Programming
If an update by the Decoder-Manager is carried out, the data will be taken through the TC-H0 cou- pling. This means that the data is transmitted using the T4T train automation channel. The update takes only a few seconds. The following diagram shows the necessary components required: Illustration 1: Connectivities to the update Detailed instructions on the update process can be found in the Decoder Manager manual. -
Page 35: Caution Notes
DO NOT touch the electronically conducting vehicle parts. Otherwise the decoder will get damaged! TCCS defines the T4T train bus system which describes the communication between T4T-decoders. Although all T4Tdecoder of the WD-PWxxx series are fully compatible with the DCC-standard, TCCS cannot be combined with decoders from other manufacturers within one train set. -

For variables that are written bit-by-bit, the counting convention used for the control centre needs to be considered.
