MTHTrains DCS - Acceleration and Deceleration Rates

DCS Command System User’s Guide
Menu Operations - Control
Acc Rate
Set your engine to accelerate in different
increments, ranging from 1 to 25. The
engine’s default acceleration rate is set low,
but you can set the engine to accelerate
much more quickly as you scroll the
thumbwheel. Set the rate low to avoid
derailing a long train of freight cars, or set
it high to keep up with the large speed
steps in other manufacturers’ engines.
Roll the thumbwheel to set the accelera-
tion rate you want, then press firmly on
the thumbwheel to confirm the selection
and return to the Control menu list.
The “Boost” button on the remote boosts
your locomotive’s speed at the rate set
here.
Dec Rate
Set your engine to decelerate in different
increments, ranging from 1 to 25. The
engine’s default deceleration rate is set
low, but you can set the engine to deceler-
ate much more quickly as you scroll the
thumbwheel. Set the rate low to avoid
derailing a long train of freight cars, or set
it high to keep up with the large speed
steps in other manufacturers’ engines.
Roll the thumbwheel to select the deceler-
ation rate you want, then press firmly on
the thumbwheel to confirm the selection
and return to the Control menu list.
The “Brake” button on the remote slows
your locomotive’s speed at the rate set
here.
