USING THE WALK-AROUND COMPANION
For exibility of movement around larger layouts, you can use the separately available Bachmann #44907 Walk-Around Companion
alongside your E-Z Command® Plus Control Center. Simply use the I/O cable included with the Walk-Around Companion to connect to
your control center.
Please note that when using the Walk-Around Companion, you will be limited to 28-speed steps and functions FO-F4 for all 9 addresses.
TIPS & TROUBLESHOOTING
If your train doesn’t respond to commands, make sure that:
• all wiring is correctly installed as shown
• the transformer is securely plugged into the wall socket
• the emergency stop button is lit (indicating that the control center is receiving power)
• the correct button for the train you wish to operate is active (button is lit)
• the control center is not in “emergency stop” mode (STOP button blinking)
• the speed control knob has been rotated clockwise if you used it to stop an individual locomotive
Never connect another controller to track controlled by an E-Z Command® Plus unit. Separate “power
districts” can be created using separate units, but they must be double-isolated so that no train
can bridge the joints between sections.
Never use an electronic track cleaner near your E-Z Command® system.
Only plug a Bachmann E-Z Command® device, or other devices approved explicitly by
Bachmann, into the I/O port shown in this image. Other devices may have the same connector
but are not necessarily compatible. If any device not designed for this port makes contact with the
I/O port, it could damage your control center.
