additional Function keys above F9.

Setting the locomotive address in DCC mode

T
he locomotive address may be set by modifying the CVs or by using the locomotive
Program/Run switch. Using the Program/Run switch makes ID changes a snap!
Simply slide the switch to PROGRAM, enter the loco ID (short or long) and press the Horn/
Whistle button (F2). The locomotive will blow the Horn or Whistle, and then the ID is set!
Slide the switch back to RUN, and use the selected ID for your loco.

Setting the consist position (CV50) in DCC mode

A
nother great Lionel feature is CV50, "Consist Position." When creating a consist on a
DCC controller, one only gets to enter the default "direction" of travel.Once the consist
is created, tedious lighting tweaks are the norm. On the Lionel DCC implementation,
simply select each locomotive ID in the Consist (not the consist ID!) and enter CV50 per
the following selections, and all lighting, sound masking, and general operations are
configured. CV50 values: 1 for lead loco, 2 for mid loco(s), and 3 for end loco.
