Address assignment

If this option is active, you just need to touch any function of a loco or
change the speed to assume control of it.
If the function is not active a locomotive will remain under the control of the
original Mobile Control II. On a secondary controller the loco will be marked
"only display", you can only see the status of the loco, but you cannot con-
trol it.

14.2. Enable RailCom/RailComPlus

This option controls whether the RailCom protocol is activated on the Cab-
Control System.
You can switch it off if you do not own any RailCom equipped decoders. In
case that you don't want to switch it off it completely, you can choose to just
disable the automatic RailComPlus-registration.
14.3. Address Assignment
Here you can decide what should happen if a loco with RailComPlus equip-
ped decoder wants to register with the CabControl System.
Please note how the text changes when switching between "automatic"
and "overwrite".

14.4. Start Address

This option controls what happens if an address is already in use. By default
all decoders are set to address #3. This won't cause a problem if you only
have one loco, but if you have more all other locomotives will need to be assi-
gned other addresses. You can configure the starting address the CabControl
system uses when automatically assigning addresses. Alternatively, you can
always configure a locomotive's address via CV-programming.

14.5. Delete All AutoRegistered Locos

Here you have the possibility to delete all locomotives that registered via
RailComPlus automatically. This is an option to avoid the difficult alternative
to delete all locomotives separately.

14.6. Current Limit

The CabControl system auto detects the power supply in use. The system will
pick a current limit based on the power available. Usually this is the maximum
available current. For smaller scales or layouts it can make sense to further
limit the power provided.
