1416 TCS Train Control Systems / AS6 (SCALE=HO)

The 1416 TCS HO Scale Train Control Systems / AS6 comes with a full - featured 6 - function BEMF decoder. It's a perfect fit for Atlas HO Scale engines like S1, S2, S3, and S4. This decoder offers great slow - speed control and high performance under load thanks to back EMF load compensation. It provides super - quiet motor control, eliminating any annoying 'buzz'. It can automatically detect DC power and lets you configure lighting effects in DC mode. With RailCom®, it can communicate with the command station and support new feature expansions. You can create custom acceleration and deceleration curves with variable momentum. Connecting LEDs doesn't require external resistors, and it works with 12 - volt incandescent bulbs. Buttons 0 through 12 can control lighting functions, and you have 20 user - programmable lighting effects to choose from. You can also set different brightness levels for LEDs or bulbs. A decoder lock prevents accidental programming, and it's fully compatible with Airwire™ operation. You can even configure custom speed curves and set speed limits.

Using the 1416 TCS HO Scale Train Control Systems / AS6 is easy. First, make sure it's properly installed in your Atlas HO Scale engine (S1, S2, S3, or S4). When you power it up, the decoder will automatically detect DC power. You can start by playing around with the different functions. For example, use the variable momentum feature to set how your train accelerates and decelerates. This gives you a more realistic train - running experience. To control the lighting, use buttons 0 through 12. You can choose from 20 different lighting effects and set the brightness as you like. Remember, when connecting LEDs, you don't need to add external resistors. And if you're using 12 - volt incandescent bulbs, it will work just fine. As for maintenance, keep it clean from dust and debris. Make sure to turn off the power when you're not using it. Also, if you don't want the decoder to be accidentally programmed, activate the decoder lock. It's fully compatible with Airwire™ operation, so you can use it with Airwire™ devices for more fun. And you can always customize the speed curves and set speed limits to match your needs.
