Basic Programming

Then configure F3 to control the Water Stop Sound:

Set CV 37 = 64

Next, we configure F5 and F6 to control the Brake Squeal and Coupler

respectively. But wait! Looking at Table F, it appears that this can’t be done.

The trick is to use the Instant Function Swapping feature so Function 5 now

controls the output assigned to Function 9, Function 6 now controls the

output of Function 10, and so forth.

To activate Function Swapping, set CV 30 to 4. Once this is done, the control

CVs for a particular function also get swapped so that the function mapping

CVs are assigned as follows:

Function 5 is now mapped with CV 43

Function 6 is now mapped with CV 44

Function 7 is now mapped with CV 45

Function 8 is now mapped with CV 46

Function 9 is now mapped with CV 39

Function 10 is now mapped with CV 40

Function 11 is now mapped with CV 41

Function 12 is now mapped with CV 42

Now use Table F to remap F5 to control the Brake Squeal:

Set CV 43 = 128

Then map F6 to control the coupler:

Set CV 44 = 128

We would like to keep the original function assignments for F7 (dimmer)

and F8 (mute). By turning on the Function Swapping feature, however, the

outputs for these functions are now mapped through CV 45 and 46 which,

by default, are set to control some other output. It is necessary to reprogram

these CVs as well to get the desired functionality:

Re-map F7 to control the dimmer:

Set CV 45 = 8

Re-map F8 to control the mute:

Set CV 45 = 16

Finally, we must activate the automatic whistle signals by setting CV 198 to 2.

The injectors are already part of Fireman Fred’s repertoire so there is nothing

else needing change.
