To remove a loco address from an MU:
1. On the DCS51, select the loco address that you want to remove from the
MU by pressing the
## key, entering the address and pressing ##
again. In this example, the TOP address is 09 with address 23 MU’ed to it.
We will remove address 23 from the MU. The display shows address 23
with the FUNCTION and MU Indicator Dot lit.
2. Press the
!) Key. The FUNCTION Indicator Dot will go off and the MU
Indicator Dot will begin to blink indicating that you are MUing.
3. Press the 1 key to remove the loco address from the MU. The DCS51 will
return to regular operation mode ready to run address 23 which you just
removed from the MU.

If all the locomotives in the MU have performance characteristics that are
closely matched, you can run all the MUed locomotives in 128 step mode. If
the units are completely mismatched (for example if you are running two dif-
ferent brands of locos with noticeably different characteristics), then we recom-
mend speed matching the locos by programming the decoder with either
Simple 3 step or Advanced 28 step loadable speed tables (See your Digitrax
Decoder Manual for more information on these features of your decoder).

Even though an individual locomotive is part of an MU and you can’t control
its individual speed and direction, you can still control its function outputs
independently as follows:
1. Select the loco that is part of an MU for which you wish to independently
control functions. In this case we will select loco address 23 which we
added to an MU with address 09 in the previous example. Press
##,
enter the MUed loco’s address, press ##. You’ll see the loco address and
the FUNCTION and MU Indicator Dot will be lit letting you know that
you can control functions on this loco that is part of an MU.
