Deleting vehicles from the database (ObjectDB vehicles):
One of the most important functions of the menu point “ObjectDB vehicles” is the possibility to delete
addresses manually (most of the time deleting whole address contingents) from the object database of
the MX10, or of the whole system. Regarding the following steps within the menu point (
”ObjectDB ve-
hicles”) this is rather comfortable:
Scroll with the rotary knob to the first address to be deleted
Button 2 (MENU)
to enter the sub menu
Scroll with the rotary knob to the entry “delete”
Press the rotary knob to actually delete the address
Button
3
(
) resume to the address list (automatic position beneath the deleted address);
it is usually the case that the following address shall be deleted, too.
Button 2 (MENU)
to enter the sub menu; this time automatically to the entry “delete”
Press the rotary knob to actually delete the address
Button

(
) resume to the address list
etc. (same procedure: button 2 - rotary knob - button 3 - button 2 - rotary knob ...)
Button 2 (MENU)
;
scroll
Undelete
: Deleted addresses stay in the list, but are marked
“DEL” or “deleted”; they can be reestablished via button 2 in
the sub menu and there as “Undelete” (instead of “Delete”) in
the MX10’s object database.

ATTENTION:
Deleting an address from the MX10’s Object database (i.e. the systems centralized data-
base) does
NOT delete
it from
local
databases in controllers (input devices). This means, if an address
is reactivated from a local database (or only is called back into the recall memory), the corresponding
address with all its data f
rom the controller is loaded back into the MX10’s centralised object database.
In order to delete an address completely from the system, it has to be deleted from all devices (control-
ler MX32 with E-6 to the ObjectDB, scroll to the address and delete it with the C-key).
NOTE:
Additionally to “manually deleting addresses” as described here, there is also automatic deletion
because a vehicle was not used for a long time or memory overload (the memory can store up to 1000
vehicles including GUI, etc.). The cr
iteria can be modified in the menu point “ObjectDB Auto-Clear” (de-
pending on the MX10’s SW version).Lists all active objects (loco addresses and names) with - eligible
by button 1 - real time speed display including direction and MAN state, sending statistics (DCC packets
ordered by type of command), etc. as desired. Detail screen for single addresses with possibility to de-
lete it from the database, RailCom analysis, ...
NOTE: Depending on the software version, not all lines are available.
