Maintenance
Lubrication
Oil the axle bearings and the side rod bearings now and then with a drop of Märklin
oil (item no. 7149).
Replacing Light Bulbs (E130023)
Lamps (front, above in the rear): Pull the lamp housing from the model. Pull the light
bulb from the socket. Insert the new light bulb. Put the model back together.
Lamps (lower rear): Remove the ring on the outside of the lamp glass. Carefully lift
the glass from the lantern. Pull the light bulb from the socket with a pair of tweezers.
Insert the new light bulb. Put the model back together.
Interior Lighting: Pull the light bulb from the socket with a pair of tweezers. Insert the
new light bulb.
Replacing Traction Tires (E126174)
- Remove the valve gear hanger between the first and second axle.
- Loosen the hex head screws used to mount the drive rods and side rods to the
third axle.
- There are several screws on the underside of the drive gear: Remove the second
and fifth screws from the front.
- Pull the drive gear out of the frame. Detach the wire.
- Use a small flat blade screwdriver to change the traction tire:
- Lift the old traction tire from the groove in the driving wheel.
- Carefully push the new traction tire into the groove.
- Make sure that the traction tire is properly seated.
- Put the model back together.
Function Mapping
It is possible to assign functions controlled from the decoder to function buttons
of your choice (mapping). To do this an appropriate value must be entered in the
appropriate CV.
The CVs (lines) and the functions (columns) are listed in the tables on pages 42/43.
Four CVs belong to each button. For space reasons the 4 CVs were put together in
one line starting with CV 282 (Button F5).
It is basically possible to assign several functions to one button or one function to
several buttons.
Note: The programming for function mapping should be done only by experienced
users.
Individual functions can be controlled by means of SUSI depending on the design of
the decoder. These functions can be handled by the decoder as sound. The volume
levels belonging to these functions cannot be changed.
Examples of Function Mapping:
AUX 2 is to be forwards and backwards on Function 3
CV 272 & CV 372 = 8
CV 273 & CV 373 = 0
CV 274 & CV 374 = 0
CV 275 & CV 375 = 0
Sound 15 is to be shifted from forwards and backwards on Function 3 to Function 8.
The existing function at Function 8 is overwritten in the process.
CV 275 & CV 375 = 0
CV 273 & CV 373 = 0
away from Function 3
CV 274 & CV 374 = 0
CV 275 & CV 375 = 0
CV 297 & CV 397 = 0
CV 298 & CV 398 = 0
to Function 8
CV 299 & CV 399 = 0
CV 300 & CV 400 = 4
