Plug-Expand-Play Control Tower Basics; Connecting Your Accessory To A Plug-Expand-Play Lock-On - Lionel Plug-Expand-Play Control Tower Owner's Manual

Plug-Expand-Play Control Tower basics

Connecting your accessory to a Plug-Expand-Play lock-on

Y
our control tower comes with a remote control momentary control box. This allows you to
turn the interior lamp ON or OFF and activate the animation in either the ON or OFF positions
by pressing the control button down. Connect your tower to the remote control box by plugging in
the 3-pin male connector into the 3-pin female slot on the back of the remote control box. Next,
plug in the 3-pin male connector on the remote control box into either a Plug-Expand-Play lock-on
(6-81313) or a Plug-Expand-Play power block lock-on (6-81314). See figure 1 for wiring.
Follow these instructions to illuminate your control tower and activate figure movement.
• Push the knob down in the "ON" position; the figures will move and the anemometer will
rotate.
• Slide the knob forward to turn on the lamp in the tower.
• With the knob in the forward position, push down to move the figures and rotate the
anemometer. Notice that the tower will stay illuminated.
• Slide the knob back to the "OFF" position to turn off the lamp in the tower.
