Feature/Factory Reset - M.T.H. HO 4-8-8-4 Big Boy Engineer's Manual

Enter in the long address you want then click anywhere else in the spreadsheet
and it will return the values for CV17 and CV18 (it will also return the hex
conversion of the CV17 and CV18 values if your DCC system requires this).
Below is an example for extended address 2011:
Desired 4-Digit
Engine Address
2011
4. Call up CV17 and enter the value required for CV17. You will get a two
whistle/horn blast response
5. Call up CV18 and enter the value required for CV18. You will get a two
whistle/horn blast response
6. In this step you have to tell the M.T.H. engine that you want it to start
looking at long addresses. You do this in CV29:
a. Bring up the CV menu on your DCC handheld
b. Enter "29" to edit CV29
c. Enter "38" to change the value of CV29 and hit Enter
d. The engine will give you a two-whistle/horn blast response.
NOTE: If you have elected to use PoM and did not start-up the sounds of
your locomotive, you will not hear the two-whistle/horn blast response.
Feature/Factory Resetting
Please note, when making setting changes in DCS or DCC, such as address, please
wait a minimum of 5 seconds after removing power to insure the settings are
stored in the engines memory. Reapplying power in less than 5 seconds may result
in losing the setting changes. If all else fails and you aren't sure of something, never
fear. You can always get your engine back to a known state by either performing a
Feature or Factory Reset.
There are a couple of ways to reset your M.T.H. PS3.0-equipped engine:
Factory Resets: Clears everything (makes engine just like it was when you bought it
new)
• Send a decimal 08 to CV8 to reset everything entirely back to factory default
• Send a decimal 192 to reset everything except user speed tables
Feature Resets: There are a couple of Feature Resets that you can use
• Press F28 twice (toggling on then off). This resets the smoke, volume and
lights back to their defaults
• Send a decimal 64 for a Feature Reset. This resets volumes, smoke and light
settings.
• Send a decimal 128 to reset only address values back to factory default
• This is the same as writing 55 to CV55 to engine address 55
NOTE: The engine address has to be something other than address 55
