our F3 A-unit was factory-programmed as a lash-up for operation with the Powered F3
A-units. When you address the lash-up by pressing TR and entering the unique lash-up
ID# on the CAB-1 Remote Controller, the locomotives will respond together, allowing the
headlight and back-up lights to work together. Remember, you can always address an
individual unit in a lash-up using its ENG ID#.
You will need to build a new lash-up if you want to change the lash-up (TR) ID#, add an
additional locomotive, or assign new individual ID#’s to any part of the consist.
To build a lash-up, assign a unique engine (ENG) ID# to all units. Arrange the units on the
track and couple them together. The Command reverse unit switches must be set to
RUN/FORWARD.
If you press a wrong button, start over with that particular unit; the assignment isn’t
saved until you press SET on the CAB-1 Remote Controller.
Start with the lead powered unit.
1. On your CAB-1 Remote Controller, press TR, then enter your lash-up ID# (1-9).
No other track or lash-up should be assigned that ID#.
2. Enter the lead unit’s unique ID#, then press F.
3. Press SET beneath the front panel of the CAB-1 Remote Controller. The horn will sound to
indicate that the lead locomotive has been assigned the first position.
Complete the lash-up by adding the rear non-powered A-unit.
1. On your CAB-1 Remote Controller, press TR, then enter your lash-up ID# (1-9).
2. Enter the last unit’s unique ID#, then press R.
3. Press SET beneath the front panel of the CAB-1 Remote Controller.
You are now ready to operate your locomotives as a lash-up. Simply press TR and enter the
lash-up ID#, then use the CAB-1 Remote Controller to operate your locomotives. To operate an
individual unit within the lash-up, simply press ENG and enter the ID# for that unit.
