NOTE – If you apply more than 9.0VDC to the engine at start-up the engine will

not move. This is normal. We refer to this as “Anti-Jackrabbit” and this feature

prevents your model from taking off at high track voltages. Simply lower the track

voltage down below 9.0VDC and then back up to get your engine moving. This

applies only when you start up your engine.

DCS - Digital Command System

While the acronyms are close, this is where the similarity ends between DCC and DCS.

Yes they are both digital control systems. However, M.T.H. DCS is not DCC. There

are several proprietary versions of DCC on the market, but DCS is not one of

them. M.T.H.'s DCS System is a proven technology in the O Gauge, One Gauge,

and HO Gauge markets. First the power signal in DCS is not the command signal.

Next DCS employs a fully functional bi-directional communication scheme opening

a vast range of advanced features and yet so simple and intuitive that you can enjoy

them. No programming tracks, bits and bytes, or conversion of binary to

hexadecimal numbers here. To add an engine in DCS, press “ADD ENGINE”.

After that, if you want to start your engine just press “START UP” or to turn the

smoke unit on or off, just press “SMOKE”. No combination of letters or numbers

to remember.

Additional details can be found in the DCS manual that accompanies your DCS

system or on the MTH Web site, www.mthtrains.com With DCS, you can have a

whole fleet of MTH PS 3.0 engines on the rails and they will remain shut down

until you command them to start up.

DCC - Digital Command Control

DCC is a popular digital command scheme wherein the track power is also a digital

control signal. That is, using a DCC controller, you can communicate with multiple

engines and have all of them moving at different speeds and in varying directions

on the same track at the same time. The power/command signal remains constant

and engines are commanded to perform as desired. Your MTH PS3.0-equipped

engine has the ability to decode and respond to these DCC commands. This allows

you to mix and match MTH PS3—equipped engines as well as operate them with

any other manufacturer's DCC-decoder equipped engine. The best part about your

MTH PS3.0-equipped engine is that the decoder is built right in. No need to

remove the hood and install speakers or boards. It's all done for you at the factory.

Each PS3.0-equipped engine has a full complement of lights, sounds, smoke (if

equipped). Just set the model on the rails, apply DCC power and hit F3 on your

DCC handheld controller and you're off and running.
