Safety Notes

• This model may only be used with the operating system designed for it.
• Use only switched mode power supply units and transformers that are designed for your local power
system.
• This locomotive must never be supplied with power from more than one power pack.
• Pay close attention to the safety notes in the instructions for your operating system.
• Not for children under the age of 15.
• WARNING! Sharp edges and points required for operation.
• WARNING! This product contains magnets. Swallowing more than one magnet may cause death in
certain circumstances. If necessary, see a doctor immediately.

Important Notes

• The operating instructions are a component part of the product and must therefore be kept in a safe
place as well as included with the product, if the latter is given to someone else.
• The warranty card included with this product specifies the warranty conditions.
• Please see your authorized LGB dealer for repairs or spare parts.

Functions

• This model is designed for operation on LGB two-rail DC systems with conventional LGB DC train
controllers or power packs (DC, 0 – 24 volts).
• Factory-installed multiple protocol decoder (DC, DCC, mfx).
• The model is programmed with locomotive address 03 for use with the LGB Multi Train System (DCC).
The locomotive is automatically recognized in operation with mfx.
• Volume can be changed for the sound effects
• Mfx technology for the Mobile Station/Central Station.
Name set at the factory: UP 119 / CP Jupiter
• This model is designed for track curves down to R1. However, we do recommend using larger radii
for operation.
• The functions can be activated only in parallel. Serial activation of the functions is not possible
(Please note here the instructions for your controller).
General Note to Avoid Electromagnetic Interference:
A permanent, flawless wheel-rail contact is required in order to guarantee operation for which a model
is designed. Do not make any changes to current-conducting parts.
Notes
• As delivered, the locomotives are prototypically equipped for a display case. For run-
ning, the wheel housings above the pilot wheels must be removed first. (Figures 7 - 8)
• When the model is operated with the smoke generator on, especially the steam flowing out of the
cylinders can dirty up the track greatly.
Mode of Operation Switch
The models have a mode of operation switch under the cover on the tender (Figure 1).
Pos. 0 Locomotive stopped with no current
Pos. 1 Locomotive fully ready to run
Sound
The whistle and bell can also be activated with the LGB sound activation magnets (17050) included
with the locomotives. The activation magnet can be clipped in between the ties on most sections of LGB
track. The magnet is located to the side under the stamped LGB logo. Place the magnets with the logo
on the right side of the track in order to activate the bell when the locomotive crosses this spot. If the
magnet is mounted on the left side, the whistle is activated.
Couplers
Included with this model are two pieces each of different types of couplers: the model coupler,
American knuckle coupler, and the „Link and Pin". These couplers can be mounted as desired on the
tender with the existing screw (Figure 6). Please note that the Link and Pin coupler is only designed
for operation pulling a train, not for pushing it. The pin that goes with this coupler is inserted from
above into the coupler.
Parts to Apply Separately
The flag staffs included with the model can be mounted on the left and right on the front of „119"
(Figure 10).
Please note that the cab windows must be open for installing the armrests in the cab (Figure 9).
Smoke Generator
The smoke generator may be filled with a maximum of 5 – 6 milliliters / 0.2 fluid ounces of (Märklin)
2421 smoke fluid. In addition, on the „Jupiter", the smoke stack must be opened (Figures 3 & 4).
The smoke generator can be turned off completely with the switch in the smoke box (Figure 2).
Function F14 can be used to turn the cylinder steam on separately for continuous operation. The steam
is active as long as the function is turned on. The sound to go with this can be turned on with F17.

Multi-Protocol Operation

Analog Operation
This decoder can also be operated on analog layouts or areas of track that are analog. The decoder
recognizes alternating current (DC) and automatically adapts to the analog track voltage.
The built-in sound functions come from the factory inactive for analog operation.
Digital Operation
The decoders are multi-protocol decoders. These decoders can be used under the following digital protocols:
mfx or DCC.
The digital protocol with the most possibilities is the highest order digital protocol. The sequence of
