SETUP DECODER OUTPUT/FUNCTION MAPPING
General Discussion of function mapping
Function mapping is used to customize which decoder lighting outputs (or sound effects)
are controlled by which function keys on your handheld throttle. Each function command,
F0 through F12, is assigned a unique CV that allows the corresponding function
command to be redirected to up to 14 different lighting outputs or sound effects. A
single function key can control more than one output if desired. It is also possible for one
output to be controlled by multiple function keys. In this case, the output will be turned
on when any of the corresponding function keys are active. That output will turn off only
when all relevant inputs have also been turned off.
Note that all function commands cannot be mapped to all outputs. The LCD display on
your ProCab will indicate only those outputs that can be mapped to each function
command.
The F0 function has two CVs - one for forward direction and one for reverse. Function
outputs mapped to these CVs will be directional unless the same output is mapped to
both CVs. CVs 33 and 34 are both for the F0 function. On NCE decoders CV33 and
CV34 do not provide directionality (see SETUP NCE LIGHTING EFFECTS below) but
otherwise operate the same as above. With NCE decoders direction of operation for
function outputs is provided by the lighting effects CVs (120 through 127). Lenz and
TCS decoders do not follow NMRA standard function mapping procedures.
When you select function mapping you are prompted for the function number to map.

The top line of the LCD displays the function number and the output numbers that can
be controlled by the function. The lower line displays the currently controlled outputs.
Pressing a digit key will enable the output on the decoder when the function is activated.
Pressing the same digit key again will disable the output. In the display below, the 4 key
has been pressed so that output number 4 will activate when ever the F2 button is
pressed on your handheld cab. If you were to press another digit such a 6, both output
4 and output 6 will be controlled by pressing F2.

When mapping functions higher than 3, the top line of the LCD will use small numbers to
indicate the output numbers 10 through 14. To enable/disable these high numbers press
the digit key that is 10 less than the output number.
Example: press 0 for output 10, 1 for output 11, etc.
Pressing PROG/ESC will exit from mapping at any time.
CV PROGRAMMING
This option allows you to change any configuration variable (range of 1-999) in your
decoder. Press PROG/ESC at any time to exit.
ENTER CONFIGURATION VARIABLE NUMBER
All configuration variables can be set while on the mainline. Just pressing ENTER without
typing in a number will return you to the main OPS programming prompt. Pressing
PROG/ESC will completely exit from programming and return you to the normal display.
