DT400/DT400R

When a 9 volt battery is inserted in a DT400 or

DT400R throttle, the following two splash screens

are displayed in sequence.

The first splash screen displays the firmware ID

and version.

The second splash screen displays the battery

voltage.

When a DT400 or DT400R throttle is plugged into

the LocoNet it displays either Ir" or Ra and the

LocoNet ID of the LocoNet it is plugged into.

When a DT400R throttle is then unplugged, it will

only control trains on a LocoNet with that ID.

A DT400 throttle has no radio capability and needs

to be plugged into the LocoNet to change any

setting, such as speed and direction. However, it

will work as a memory throttle. You can unplug

the DT400 and the train will maintain its speed and

direction until the DT400 is plugged in and a

setting is changed.

A DT400R has a simplex (one way) radio capability. Once the LocoNet ID has been set by plugging

it into the LocoNet, speed, direction and functions, e.g. headlight, can be controlled with the DT400R

unplugged. The DT400R needs to be plugged into the LocoNet for all other operations, such as

entering a decoder number.
