PAGED PROGRAMMING (Option 4)
Option 4 forces the system to use Paged mode while doing Standard and all
subsequent programming. Almost all decoders support Paged Mode.
DIRECT PROGRAMMING (Option 5)
Option 5 forces the system to use Direct mode while doing Standard and all
subsequent programming. Older decoders (built prior to 1/1/2001) do not support
Direct Mode programming.
SETUP NCE LIGHTING EFFECTS (Option 6)
You can use this option to customize the lighting effects for your NCE decoder
equipped locomotives. This programming option will only work with NCE decoders.

Function outputs are numbered from 1 to 14. Do not confuse Output numbers with
Function numbers. The headlight is always output 1 and the reverse light is usually
output 2. You are prompted for the output number to setup. Press the output number
followed by ENTER.
Use the thumbwheel or up/down speed buttons to scroll through the different lighting
effect options. Press ENTER when you get the one you want.

Next press 1,2 or 3 to select the ‘directionality’ of the output. If you want the output
active only in the forward direction of travel - press 1. Press 2 for the effect to
operate only when travelling in reverse. 3 activates the output no matter which
direction the locomotive is travelling.

Last, press 1 if the output has a regular incandescent bulb attached. Press 2 if the
output has an LED connected. LEDs behave differently when dimmed than
incandescent bulbs. Pressing 1 or 2 informs the decoder which set of lighting
characteristics to use for this output.

RECOVERY PROGRAMMING (Option 7)
This programming section is included to allow the user to set all registers of the
Decoder to the values that were programmed into it at the factory.

Press 1 to enter Recovery mode. This will reprogram NCE decoders (and most
others) to their original factory values. It will also set addresses, motor control CVs
and Function Mapping CVs to a useful state so that you can get control of a decoder.
As each CV is programmed the CV number is displayed.
