5.3. Menu point “loco-warnings“
If more than one PIKO SmartController
light
is used and loco-warning is turned on, you can see whether
a locomotive is already controlled by a different PIKO SmartController
light
with activated loco-warning
by selecting the locos address. For this process every PIKO SmartController
light
has its own ID
number, which is not visible in the system.
There are four settings for this operational situation:
• 0 = No loco-warning
• 1 = loco-warning ”LOCOMOTIVE ALREADY UNDER CONTROL“. The PIKO
SmartController
light
connects its ID with the loco address and is able to control it.
• 2 = loco-warning ”LOCOMOTIVE ALREADY UNDER CONTROL“. The PIKO
SmartController
light
does not connect its ID with the loco address and is able to control it.
• 3 = loco-warning “LOCOMOTIVE NOT CONTROLLABLE”. The loco address cannot be
accepted and controlled. The display shows “LOCO?“. Another loco address can now be
selected.
By pressing [1] on page 2 of the conguration menu, you can set the loco -warning of the PIKO
SmartController
light
. By pressing [▲] or [▼] you can switch between the different settings and conrm
it by pressing [↩].
ATTENTION: If loco-warning 1 is switched on and a loco address is quitted, the connection to this loco
address will be deleted.
ATTENTION: If loco warning 1 is switched on and the PIKO SmartController
light
quits the system,
the last activated loco address has to be reactivated by another PIKO SmartController
light
with loco
warning 1 or at the digital central so that the connection is deleted.
ATTENTION: Please note that only the PIKO SmartController
light
can transfer this ID. That’s why loco
warning is only available for PIKO SmartController
light
. Other controllers do not support loco warning.
