Dcs Operation - M.T.H. Premier E94 Crocodile Operator's Manual

DCS - Digital Command System
While the acronyms are close, this is where the similarity ends between DCC and DCS.
Yes they are both digital control systems. However, M.T.H. DCS is not DCC. There are
several proprietary versions of DCC on the market, but DCS is not one of them.
M.T.H.'s DCS System is a proven technology in the O Gauge, One Gauge, and HO
Gauge markets. First the power signal in DCS is not the command signal. Next DCS
employs a fully functional bi-directional communication scheme opening a vast range of
advanced features and yet so simple and intuitive that you can enjoy them. No
programming tracks, bits and bytes, or conversion of binary to hexadecimal numbers
here. To add an engine in DCS, press "ADD ENGINE". After that, if you want to start
your engine just press "START UP" or to turn the smoke unit on or off, just press
"SMOKE". No combination of letters or numbers to remember.
Additional details can be found in the DCS manual that accompanies your DCS system
or on the MTH Web site, www.mthtrains.com With DCS, you can have a whole fleet of
MTH PS 3.0 engines on the rails and they will remain shut down until you command
them to start up.
Your new E94 Crocodile Electric Engine has four new lighting features not found on
any other models: Road, Push, Pull and Yard. By selecting two different softkeys on the
DCS Remote, you are now able to change how the engine's lights respond. Please refer
to your DCS Manual for definitions and further explanation on how softkeys are
utilized in your PS3.0-equipped engine. Below is a lighting table and diagram to help
with setting the correct lighting you desire.
