Programming the Locomotive
(Selectrix)
All of the parameters for the locomotive can be
changed as often as you like by reprogramming the
locomotive. The specifications for programming the
standard parameters can be found in the instructions
for your programming unit. The 66837 decoder has
additional parameters that offer the possibility of
adapting the decoder even more effectively to the
special characteristics of a particular locomotive.
The settings done at the factory for the additional
values will cause the decoder to behave in the same
manner as Selectrix decoders previously available.
Important:
The additional values for the decoder can not be
programmed with the old 56 6841 00 programmer.
The programming of the normal parameters
(address, etc.) can still be done without any limitations.
Important:
The reading and writing of the additional values
overwrites the standard values for the decoder.
The standard values must therefore be entered again
after the additional values have been processed.
Reading the Additional Values
The values are read by entering
00-111 Programming Key
hence Address 00
Max. speed 1
Delay 1
Pulse width 1
Stop area 1
and pressing the programming key.
Writing the Additional Values
Important:
Twp stop areas must always be set for programming
the expanded key values!
The values are written by entering
00 = VAI Programming Key
hence Address 00
Max. speed V (Velo)
Delay A (Acce)
Pulse width I (Impw)
Stop area 2 (Stop)
and pressing the programming key.
Important:
If the motor “whistles” after being placed into service,
you probably forgot to enter the standard values again.
The values to be entered for VAI are explained below:
