4.2 Selecting an Analog or non-decoder locomotive
A locomotive without a DCC decoder is called an Analog locomotive and is
run on address 0000. While an analog locomotive, with no decoder, is sitting
still on your digital layout, you will hear a "singing" sound. Once the analog
locomotive is moving, this sound will change and be less noticeable. To avoid
heat build up in your locos without decoders, Digitrax recommends that analog
locos NOT be left sitting on DCC powered track for long periods of time when
they are not running.

4.4 Releasing an address from a throttle
When you are finished running a locomotive address, it is best practice to
release it from your throttle, so that it is available for other throttles to select
and run.
1. Use the Throttle Knob to make the locomotive's speed zero (this option-
al step is strongly recommended as the loco will continue to move after
released if speed is not zero).
2. Press the
