Edit locomotives
If you wish to control another (additional) locomotive simply press the "+"
button in order to access the locomotive choice list. Then select another lo-
comotive as described in chapter 11.1. All locomotives are now shown in the
quick access list. If you wish to call up the next locomotive and run it, then
simply wipe to the left or right within the field of the function buttons.
The currently controlled locomotive (class V 100 DB in this example) is dis-
played bright and underlined. Every time you change to another locomotive
the throttle knob will move to the appropriate position to match the loco-
motive speed setting.
11.2.3.1. Quick selection
With the method described you may easily select the next locomotive in the
quick access list by wiping left or right. However, you may also select the
desired locomotive directly.
• Touch and hold the name of the current locomotive in the quick access list
until the quick selection menu appears.
• Choose the desired locomotive directly.

11.3. Blocked locomotive
When you call up a locomotive it may happen that it may be displayed, but
you cannot control it. In this case the text "Display only" will appear below
the locomotive picture instead of the speed indicator. This means that this
locomotive is currently controlled by another throttle.
In the CabControl Settings you may choose to adjust the "locomotive ta-
keover" settings. This will allow you to "Steal" the locomotive from another
throttle.

"Edit locomotive" from the menu.
