Parallel Function Activation
Many LGB locomotives with a decoder onboard can re-
ceive commands for Locomotive Functions 1 – 8 directly
(or “parallel“). Others receive the function commands
“serially“ one after the other from “1“ commands
(example: “3“ = “1+1+1“). Parallel data transmission is
of course faster, but it is not possible if all of the MTS
components are set at “p“.
Press Buttons
F
and
9
in order to change the data
transmission on the Locomotive Hand Controller to
“parallel“ for the locomotive in use. When you are using
several hand controllers, this must be set accordingly on
each hand controller. Press Buttons
F
and
9
again to
change the locomotive in use back to “serial“.
The setting “serial“ or “parallel“ remains stored for
each locomotive number in question, even when the
hand controller is turned off.

• Brief jerking by the locomotive indicates that the
programming procedure was successful.
