10 Operating manual LH101
3 First steps
In this section, you will learn:
- to connect your LH101 to the LZ100/LZV100 command station
- to operate your first train
The sections further below explain all the functions of the LH101 in

3.1 Connection and initial operation
The LH101 may be connected to the following components of the
