Notes On Digital Operation - Trix BR 218 Mode D'emploi

digital protocol (see previous table).
Note: Please note that not all functions are possible in all
digital protocols. Several settings for functions, which are
supposed to be active in analog operation, can be done
under mfx and DCC.

Notes on digital operation

• The operating instructions for your central unit will give
you exact procedures for setting the different parame-
ters.
• The values set at the factory have been selected for mfx
in order to guarantee the best possible running characte-
ristics.
Adjustments may have to be made for other operating
systems.
• The setting done at the factory does not permit operation
with opposite polarity DC power in the braking block.
If you want this characteristic, you must do without
conventional DC power operation (CV 29/Bit 2 = 0).
mfx Protocol
Addresses
• No address is required; each decoder is given a one-
time, unique identifier (UID).
• The decoder automatically registers itself on a Central
Station or a Mobile Station with its UID.
Programming
• The characteristics can be programmed using the
graphic screen on the Central Station or also partially
with the Mobile Station.
12
• All of the Configuration Variables (CV) can be read and
programmed repeatedly.
• The programming can be done either on the main track or
the programming track.
• The default settings (factory settings) can be produced
repeatedly.
• Function mapping: Functions can be assigned to any of
the function buttons with the help of the 60212 Central
Station (with limitations) and with the 60213/60214/60215
Central Station (See help section in the Central Station).
DCC Protocol
Addresses
• Short address – long address – multiple unit address
• Address range:
1 - 127 for short address and multiple unit address,
1 - 10239 for long address
• Every address can be programmed manually.
• A short or a long address is selected using the CVs.
• A multiple unit address that is being used deactivates the
standard address.
Programming
• The characteristics can be changed repeatedly using the
Configuration Variables (CV).
• The CV numbers and the CV values are entered directly.
• The CVs can be read and programmed repeatedly. (Pro-
gramming is done on the programming track.)
• The CVs can be programmed in any order desired. (Pro-
gramming can be done on the main track PoM). The PoM
can only be done with those designated in the CV table.
