to allow the internal lighting and chuff system to function properly. An alternate
installation approach if your Battery/RC system does not support plug-and-play
operation is to connect the motor outputs of your RC system to the “BATT1”
battery screw terminals (Figure 25). Should you wish to control the locomotive’s
individual lighting and smoke functions, follow your specific manufacturer’s
instructions for connecting these functions to the 4-6-0’s control system’s
function inputs.
HYBRID DRIVE OPERATION
Some control systems use a combination of on-board primary and backup
power to provide the locomotive with the control signal being transmitted
either through the track or via radio control. To install such systems, connect
the onboard power ground terminal to “J1-7 GND” and the onboard power
positive terminal to “J1-6 B+”. The remaining connections are through the
plug-and-play socket. These systems also allow for the control signal to come
either from the track or a radio receiver. If using such a system, connect the
radio receiver outputs to the “BATT1” terminals, and use the “Track/Battery”
pickup switch to select “Track” for track signal or “Battery” for radio signal.
