6.4 Controlling the Locomotive
The control knob (7) for operating locomotives always
controls only the locomotive that has just been selected
with the address selector switch. All other locomotives
or powered rail cars continue to run at the speed last set
for them.
Important: When a new address is selected and the
control knob is already set at a speed position (any
speed position), the locomotive just selected will imme-
diately run at this speed. You must select this locomo-
tive address a second time, before you can control the
locomotive.
After you switch to a new address, it takes a moment
before the newly selected locomotive can actually be
controlled. This feature makes it possible for you to skip
over other addresses when switching to a new address,
without the locomotives assigned to these addresses
being affected by the current setting for the control
knob. You can use this short period of time to set the
control knob in such a way after selecting the address
that it is at approximately the same speed as the newly
selected locomotive or is at the desired speed of the
locomotive.
