How To Reset XR1300 Plug-In Throttle ID To Factory Defaults
To reset the throttle to factory defaults, assign the ID to a value of 0. Then unplug the throttle,
count to 10 and then plug the throttle back in. Once plugged back in, the XR1300 throttle
resets to ID=17, and loco address =3 and the accessory address is 1.
How To Set The XR1300 Throttle ID
1. First, make sure the throttle is plugged in.
2. Push the # key. Watch for the two direction LEDs to flash slowly.
3. Now push the DIRECTION key. Notice the direction LEDs are flashing at a faster rate.
4. Now enter the number for the desired ID number and push the key labeled # (called the
pound key) to complete the procedure.
5. Before you forget, put a label on the throttle and write the ID number on the label. You
might remember today, but what about 6 months from now.
If you want to change the throttle ID number, just repeat the above sequence. The old ID
number will be overwritten with the new ID number.
