Trix 280 Serie Manual De Instrucciones página 6

Function
The locomotive offers the following features:
• Built-in electronic circuit for operation with a conventional
DC power pack (max. ±12 volts), Trix Systems, Trix Selectrix or
NMRA DCC digital systems.
• The mode of operation is automatically recognized.
• Headlights for the locomotive change over with the direction
of travel. They can be turned on and off in digital operation.
Note: When in direct current operation, never switch too quickly
from forward to reverse travel (and vice versa). Always first move
the control knob to the 0 position for a brief moment, then set the
speed for the opposite direction.
Notes on digital operation:
• This locomotive comes from the factory programmed for the
digital address "03" (Selectrix) / "03" (DCC). Number of speed
levels that have been set: 28 (DCC) and 31 (Selectrix).
• Information about DCC Operation:
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 (CV29 / Bit 2 = 0).
• Trouble-free programming of the decoder can only be guaran-
teed when it is done with original Trix Selectrix components.

• The train has a technical feature in DCC operation in which its
lights will go on when the lighting function is turned off and the
train is stopped in a block.
• When using a multiprotocol digital central unit as an operating
system, this locomotive should be controlled with DCC format.
The Selectrix digital central unit allows Selectrix format to be
employed.
