24.3 Adding Another DCS50
Since each system only needs one command station, you only need one
DCS50 performing this function. When you are ready to add one or
more additional DCS50s to the system, you’ll need to disable the
command station feature of the additional units. This is done by
changing Option Switch 02 to closed. You can also set up these one
or more of these additional DCS50s to act as an automatic reversing
booster by setting Option Switch 03 to closed.
To set up a DCS50 to run as a booster and throttle without com-
mand station capabilities:
1. Press the PROG Key. The display shows the last programming mode
used by the DCS50.
2. Press the SWITCH Key. The display shows the last switch used by
the DCS50.
3. Use the KEYPAD to enter 02. To let the DCS50 know you want to
change Option Switch 02.
4. Press the C Key. to let the DCS50 know that you want to change
Option Switch 02 to c and make the DCS50 a booster and throttle
only. The display will show 002c with “L”s walking from left to
right through the display. This means that you have set the DCS50 to
run as a booster and throttle causing a loss of carrier signal. This is
normal.
5. Press the EXIT Key. The display will show-br- followed by the last
address used by the DCS50 with the walking Ls through the display.
6. Connect the DCS50 that is now running as a booster according to the
wiring diagram shown here.
7. As soon as the DCS50 is hooked up to the layout with a command
station, it will resume normal operations.
8. To make the DCS50 autoreversing Press the PROG Key, Press the
SWITCH Key, Use the KEYPAD to enter 03, press the C Key and
press the EXIT Key. The DCS50 will now run as an auto reversing
