3 Transformer operations Running your locomotive with a Lionel transformer

Place your locomotive on Lionel or Lionel-compatible 11 O-54 or larger track. With track power OFF, connect the drawbar between locomotive and tender as illustrated in Figure 1. That’s all you have to do with Lionel’s Wireless Tether, an infrared communication system that eliminates the plugs and wires of the past. Figure 1. Drawbar connection Power up your locomotive with your transformer. 22 Your locomotive is designed to operate on 8-18 volts alternating current. Virtually all Lionel and Lionel-compatible alternating-current transformers are suitable. Caution! Do not power your locomotive with direct current (DC). Damage to sensitive electronic components may occur. Note! When you first power up your track, the locomotive will wait between three and eight seconds as it “listens” for digital language from the TrainMaster Command Base (available separately). When it has determined that it’s on a conventional (non-Command) railroad, the locomotive’s headlight will illuminate and RailSounds will fire up. At this point, the locomotive is in neutral. (This occurs when placing the locomotive on your railroad for the first time. Thereafter, it will start in forward following every three-second power interruption.) To experience all of your locomotive’s features, we recommend using the TrainMaster Command Control system, available at your authorized Lionel dealer.

Move ‘em out! 33 Get your locomotive moving. Press the DIRECTION button on your CAB-1 Remote Controller or Lionel transformer. This sequences the Command reverse unit to the next operating state. Adjust track voltage until your locomotive moves at your desired speed. To increase speed, increase track voltage. To decrease speed, reduce voltage. To stop the locomotive, turn-off track power. See page 5 for information on locking your locomotive in a single operational state. 4 Figure 2.Switchlocations Locking your locomotive intoasingleoperational state Transformer operations unit switchtoPROG.ReferFigure2for without stopping. desired direction,then (PROG/RUN) switch. function withtheCommandreverseunit Command reverseunit’s sequencing forward only),youcandeactivatethe T Get yourlocomotivemovinginthe your Lionellocomotive(example: o selectasingleoperationalstatefor

Place your rolling stock’s coupler “trigger disc” over the central coil of a Remote-Control Track section and press UNCOUPLE on the controller. The magnetic field pulls the disc downward, and the coupler opens. Remote-Control Track section Note! Your locomotive tender’s Figure 3.

Note! Please remove the protective cover from the battery clip before installing the battery.

Note! Although RailSounds is powered by track voltage, the battery is required for uninterrupted operation and shutdown sequences. Use only alkaline batteries.

Note! Discontinue locomotive power for ten seconds before changing the RailSounds ON/OFF switch position.

Note! If the RailSounds sound system “drops out” during track power interruptions (during direction changes, switches, crossings, etc), replace the battery.

Odyssey System conventional (transformer) operation

Setting Speed Control 1. Run the engine at the desired speed for approximately five seconds. Be sure the Odyssey switch is in the ON position. See page 5 for the switch locations. 2. Press and hold the whistle button. 3. While holding the whistle button, increase the track voltage by at least three volts (at least a quarter turn). 4. At this point, speed control is set. Note! Engine speed will increase slightly before returning to the set speed. Turning off Speed Control using your transformer: 1. While the engine is in neutral, turn your controller up to the maximum power (no more than 20 volts), wait one second, then press and hold the whistle button. 2. While holding the whistle button, slowly reduce track voltage to one-fourth of full power. The classification lights will turn off. Keep reducing the throttle and the classification lights will turn on. 3. Release the whistle button. 4. Cycle the engine to forward or reverse. The engine is now out of speed control mode. Caution! In conventional operation, the lights in both the engine and tender are connected directly to track power. Do not exceed 14-16 volts for extended periods. Doing so will reduce the life of your lamps. Note! If you experience problems with speed control, turn off track power, place the locomotive on the track with the Odyssey switch OFF, and throttle up. This will clear the speed settings. You must slide the switch back to the ON position to set another speed setting.

12 TrainMaster Command operations The Command Control environment

TrainMaster Command Control and a CAB-1 Remote Controller gives you the power to operate multiple (6-12868). Find them both at your Command-equipped locomotives on the Authorized Lionel retailer. same track, at the same time.

Place your locomotive on Lionel or 11 Lionel-compatible O-54 or larger track. • Make sure track power is OFF before placing on the track. • Make sure your Lionel Command Base is plugged-in and its communications wire is connected to the COMMON post on your Lionel transformer or the U terminal on any of your installed PowerMasters. • Once positioned on the track, increase track voltage to FULL (no more than 20 volts). On PowerMasters, slide the CMD/CONV switch to CMD.

Address your locomotive using CAB-1. 22 • Press ENG and 1 on the numeric keypad of your CAB-1. This command is sent by CAB-1 to the Command Base, which then translates your command into digital code. That code is sent around your railroad’s outside rails in the form of a digital “halo.” All Command-equipped Lionel engines listen to this digital communication, but they do not respond until they hear their individual ID number—in this case, “1.” • The digital language of TrainMaster Command—and not track power—controls the actions of Command-equipped Lionel engines. Track power is simply like gasoline in the tank of your car—it gives you the power to go places, but it doesn’t tell you where to go or how fast to get there. Note! All Command locomotives come factory-programmed with an ID# of “1.” To change the ID# of your locomotive, see page 17.

Move ‘em out! 33 • Throttle up or press any command button on the CAB-1. Your locomotive will respond to your every command. Read on.
