Programming your switches

Soft Set Programming

The TMCC switch incorperates "Soft Set Technology" which allows the operator to change the

ID# (1-99) without physically activating the program button. This is great for switches that

are not easily accessable.

1. Activate the desired switch by pressing SW, (the new switch ID# number) then

alternate the AUX1 and AUX2 buttons to verify the command system is communicating with

the switch.

2. On the Cab remote, press the SET button five times slowly. After the fifth press, the lantern

will start to blink.

3. Press the SW, (the new switch ID# number) SET.

4. The lantern will flicker when the SET button is pressed and then will continue to blink for

approx. 5 seconds.

5. When the lantern stops blinking, press SW, (the new switch ID# number) and

alternate AUX1 and AUX2 to verify that it is reprogrammed to the new number.

In an environment where more than one Command switch is intalled, be sure that

Note!

you program each switch with it's own switch ID # initially so other switches are not

addressed when doing a "soft set".

Train route information

n TMCC1 operation, Routes 1 to 9 are supported and are stored in the switch. Routes 1-9

are assigned by the Cab-1 controller. Each switch saves the route number assigned, and the

"through" or "out" selection. After a route is selected and activated, the switch is fired with

a randomized time. The reason for this is when a route is activated, all of the switches

operating together would add undesired load on the track power transformer. Allow up to 2

seconds for all switches to throw when part of a route and the route is selected and activated.

Please refer to page 13 in your TMCC1 owners manual for instruction on creating routes

n TMCC2 operation, Routes 1-99 are supported and are stored in the Legacy command

base. No route assignment is stored in the switch, please refer to the route builder in the

Legacy manual page 69 for how to create a route.
