the original UT1 is reconnected after a purge of its last in-use loco-

motives, and no settings have changed on the UT1, it will start the

selection process again and as long as no one else has selected that

locomotive, the UT1 will re acquire it. The designation of locomo-

tives as in-use or common ensures orderly sharing of locomotives on

the layout and increases the system's ability to run more locos at a

time.

4.4 Stop Mode

Press "RUN/STOP" for 1 second by itself and the locomotive under con-

trol of your throttle will go to Emergency Stop or "0" speed. There

are two ways to restart your locomotive.

Turn the throttle knob counter clockwise to "0" speed. If you now

increase the throttle setting, your locomotive will respond normally.

If you press "RUN/STOP" again, for 1 second, the locomotive will

resume at the speed it was running previously.

Use this only as an Emergency Stop.

4.5 Address Mode

The UT1 has two different "Addressing Modes", both of which are

described below. These Modes are selectable during the throttle con-

figuration process described later in Section 4.1.

Safe Mode (Default)

While in "SAFE MODE" the UT1 is unable to complete the selection of

an available locomotive unless its present speed and direction match

the settings on the UT1.

1. Select the two digit address "03" of the DCC locomotive you want

to run using the rotary selectors on the UT1. The left rotary selects

the "tens" and the right rotary selects the "ones".

2. Press "ACQ/DISP" to select locomotive. The "STATUS" LED

should be a steady green to indicate that you now control that loco-

motive.

3. If the "STATUS" LED is dark, the locomotive that you tried to select

is already being controlled by another throttle in the system and is

not available.

4. A red "STATUS" LED indicates that the direction switch is not set

to the same direction as the locomotive you are trying to select.

Reverse the direction toggle switch and the "STATUS" LED will

turn green.

5. Strobing green "Chase Lights" across the top of the keyboard indi-

cate the throttle speed is higher or lower than the locomotive you are

trying to select. If the LEDs are strobing Left to Right, turn the

throttle knob clockwise until the LEDs stop strobing and the "STA-

TUS" LED turns green. If the LEDs are strobing Right to Left, turn

the throttle knob counter clockwise until the LEDs stop strobing and

the "STATUS" LED turns green. Flipping the toggle switch to the

right will make the locomotive go forward. Flipping the toggle to

the left will make the locomotive go in reverse.

6. Turn the throttle knob clockwise to increase speed and counter

clockwise to decrease the speed. The throttle knob can rotate

approximately. 300 degrees from start to stop.

Quik Mode

While in "QUIK MODE" the UT1 is able to select an available locomo-

tive regardless of its present speed and direction

1. Select the two digit address "03" of the DCC locomotive you want

to run using the rotary selectors on the UT1. The left rotary selects

the "tens" and the right rotary selects the "ones".

2. Press "ACQ/DISP" to select locomotive. The "STATUS" LED

should be a steady green to indicate that you now control that loco-

motive.

3. If the "STATUS" LED is dark, the locomotive that you tried to select

is already being controlled by another throttle in the system and is

not available.

While in "QUIK MODE" the UT1 is able to select an available loco-

motive regardless of its present speed and direction. The selected

locomotive will change direction and or speed to match the cur-

rent settings on the UT1. Care should be taken to insure that the

UT1 is at a comparable speed setting and direction before select-

ing a locomotive.

4.6 Programming Mode

The UT1 has no programming ability. To program decoders use a system

throttle such as a UT2 or a DT100 series throttle.

4.7 Switch Mode

Turnout Control

The UT1 can be used to throw turnouts on your layout if they are con-

nected to a stationary decoder such as a Digitrax DS54.

1. Press the "RUN/STOP" and the "ACQ" buttons at the same time to

activate "Switch" Mode.

2. Use the two rotary selectors on the UT1 to select the turnout address

to throw or close (With the UT1 you are limited to a two digit

turnout address).

3. The LED above "ACQ" will light if the last known state of the

turnout selected is the "closed" position.

4. Press "ACQ" to throw and close the turnout.

5. The LED above "ACQ" will be dark if the last known state of the
