2.5.3. Automatic uncoupling ("uncoupling waltz")
By programming the CV accordingly, the complete uncoupling process can be triggered with
one function.
After switching on the function, the locomotive first moves a little bit against the set direction
of travel in order to relieve the coupling. Then the function output to which the coupling is
connected is switched on for the set time. At the same time, the direction of travel is internally
changed back to the set direction and the motor voltage is switched on again. The locomotive
then moves a short distance away from the uncoupled wagon.
The following parameters of the automatic uncoupling can be set via CVs:
voltage that is applied to the motor during the uncoupling process
time period during which motor and output (coupling) are supplied with current (= kick
time)
2.5.4. Shunting function
Shunting gear and shunting light can be assigned to the same function. Then, when switching
to the shunting gear (and the associated reduction of speed), the shunting light (white front
and rear light) is switched on automatically. At the same time, the function that switches on
the shunting gear can be used to deactivate the acceleration and brake delay function.
Example of programming for shunting operation → section 5.4.
2.5.5. Speed-dependent switching on and off
All function outputs for which the function is activated are automatically switched when a
voltage defined in the associated CV is reached. It is possible
to switch the output off when the voltage is exceeded and to switch it on when the
voltage falls below the voltage or
to switch the output switch on when the voltage exceeds the limit and switch off when the
voltage falls below it.
The voltage is set for all outputs together.
2.5.6. Stop/Start with a function
With the function mapping, one or more functions can be assigned to the special function
"STOP/START with a function". When the assigned function is switched on, the locomotive
stops with the set braking delay; when it is switched off, it continues with the set acceleration
delay.
On delivery, no function is assigned to the special function "STOP".
