Supplement 5 Automatic coupling procedure ("Coupling waltz")
Principle function
If a locomotive with attached wagon train has been driven into the station in forward driving and now the wagon train
should be uncoupled, the locomotive must approach the wagon train backwards to relieve the coupling. Then the cou-
pling must be activated by relaxed towing hook. Now the locomotive is driving away with activated coupling a bit, until
the coupling is in rest position.
"Coupling waltz" is not assigned to a function; it is automatically available, as long as it is activated by CV143 Bit 6 = 0.
The time procedure is defined by CVs (see chart):
CV138 Timer for approach
CV139 Timer for waiting
CV140 Timer for driving away
