Operating instructions
DIGITAL-N-LOCOMOTIVE WITH DCC-DECODER
PROPERTIES OF THE INBUILT DCC-DECODER Locomotives with an inbuilt DCC-
decoder can be run using the FLEISCHMANN control equipment LOK-BOSS (6865),
PROFI-BOSS (686601), multiMAUS, multiMAUSPRO, WLANMAUS®, TWIN-CENTER (6802),
Z21 and z21 start as well as with other DCC-control-less conforming to the
NMRA standard, without the need to alter the DCC-decoder of the vehicle when
changing from one system to another (except loco addresses higher than ”4“).
With a DCC-decoder installed, the speed of the loco remains constant,
irrespective of the load, i. e. whether up or downhill, the loco will run at
the same speed (allowing for sufficient motive power).
Power to the motor will be turned off once that temperature exceeds 100°C. The headlights start flashing rapidly, at about 5 Hz, to make this state visible to the operator. Motor control will resume automatically after a drop in temperature of about 20°C, typically in about 30 seconds.
ADVICE: The digital DCC-DECODERS are high-value products of the most modern electronics, and therefore must be handled with the greatest of care:
- Liquids (e.g. oil, water, cleaning fluid …) will damage the DCC-DECODER.
- The DCC-DECODER can be damaged both electrically or mechanically by unnecessary contact with tools (tweezers, screwdrivers, etc.)
- Rough handling (e.g. pulling on the wires, or bending the components) can cause mechanical or electrical damage
- Soldering onto the DCC-DECODER can lead to failure.
OPERATION WITH THE FLEISCHMANN DCC-DIG-ITAL SYSTEM
Locos with inbuilt DCC-DECODER can be used with the FLEISCHMANN-controllers
LOK-BOSS (6865), PROFI-BOSS (686601), multiMAUS, multiMAUSPRO, WLANMAUS, TWIN-
CENTER (6802), Z21 and z21 start conforming to the NMRA standard. Which DCC-
decoder functions can be used within which parameters are fully described in
the respective operating instructions of the respective controller? The
prescribed functions shown in the instruction leaflets included with our
controllers are fully useable with the DCC-decoder. The simultaneous,
compatible running possibilities with D.C. vehicles on the same electrical
circuit are not possible with DCC controllers conforming to NMRA standards
(see also manual of the respective controller).
CODING THE ADDRESS
Using the controller PROFI-BOSS (686601), multi-MAUS, multiMAUSPRO, WLANMAUS,
TWIN-CENTER (6802), Z21, and z21 start the address can be altered at any time
from address 1 to 9999. Using the LOK-BOSS (6865) the address can be altered
at any time to address 1 through 4. Please make yourself familiar with the
instructions which are included with each piece of equipment.
PROGRAMMING WITH DCC
The DCC-decoder enables a range of further settable possibilities and
information according to its characteristics. This information is stored in
so-called CVs (CV = Configuration Variable). Some CVs store only a single
piece of information, the so-called Byte, and others that contain 8 pieces of
information (Bits). The Bits are numbered from 0 to 7. When programming, you
will need that knowledge. The CVs required we have listed for you (see CV
table). The pre-adjusted basic values of the CVs can be altered by use of
PROFI-BOSS (686601), multiMAUS, multiMAUSPRO, WLAN-multiMAUS, TWIN-CENTER
(6802), Z21 and z21 start, and other DCC controllers that accord to NMRA
standards and that are capable of the programming by bits and bytes in mode
”CV direct“. The programming of some CVs by register programming is also
possible. Furthermore, all CVs can be programmed byte-wise on the main track,
independently from the programming track. However, this is possible only if
your appliance is capable of this programming mode (POM – program on main).
Further information concerning that issue is given in the respective manuals
and operating instructions of the digital controllers. The pre-adjusted basic
values of the CVs can be altered by use of the above-described DCC controllers
that accord to NMRA standards. The vehicles will then behave according to the
values that you have set within the CVs.

speed between 0 and 255 can be given in each of the 28 CVs from 67 to 94. CV67
holds the minimum speed, and CV94 holds the top speed. The control
characteristic curve is then determined by intermediate values. They decide
how the speed of the vehicle alters with the controller setting.

RUNNING ON CONVENTIONAL DC LAYOUTS
Do you want to run your FLEISCHMANN DCC-loco once in a while on a DC layout? No problem at all, because as delivered, we have adjusted the respective CV29 in our decoders so that they can run on ”analog“ layouts as well! However, you may not be able to enjoy the full range of digital technique highlights. If a locomotive with this decoder runs from the digital layout into an analog layout and the transformer is set for this area the locomotive will continue in the same direction, so the locomotive will do so. The speed is dependent on the setting of the transformer. You can then shunt the train in the digital layout and then run in an analog circuit of your model railway layout.
BRAKING SECTIONS
In the digital systems you have also automatic braking sections. In this
vehicle, the support of braking sections is turned on, when CV29 Bit 2=0 is
set. If a locomotive with this decoder runs from the digital layout into an
analog layout and the transformer is set for this area that the locomotive
will run in the opposite direction, the locomotive slows down with the
deceleration stored in the decoder and stops. The decoder knows that this is
the analog braking distance with the opposite DC voltage. If the brake section
is switched from analog to digital again, the locomotive continues running
with its digital commands.
SIMULATION OF TRAIN WEIGHT
In our decoders we have integrated acceleration and braking inertia values,
that represent the weight of a ”real“ locomotive (see CV-table). Often,
however, it is of advantageous to be able to switch off this simulation, e.g.
when coupling. The inertia can then be
switched on and off using the function key F5.
SHUNTING GEAR
Some operational situations require delicate speed adaption, often called
‘shunting gear’. By using the F6 function key, you can set your DCC-loco to
”half speed“ with increased speed levels to make the shunting far more finely
controllable.
RAILCOM®
The decoder in this car has ”RailCom®“, i.e. it does not only receive data
from the control center but can also return data to a RailCom® capable control
center. For more information please refer to the manual of your RailCom®
capable control center. By default, RailCom® is switched on (CV29, Bit 3=1).
For operation at a control center that does not have RailCom® capability, we
recommend leaving RailCom® switched off.
ADVICE ON SWITCHING THE DIGITAL LAYOUT ON AND OFF
To switch off your model railway controller, first of all activate the
emergency stop function of the controller (see instructions with the
controller). Then finally, pull out the mains plug of the controller power
supply; otherwise, you might damage the appliance. If you ignore this critical
advice, damage could be caused to the equipment. Detailed information is also
available at www.zimo.at amongst others in the operation
manual “MX-KleineDecoder.pdf“
