Multi-Protocol Operation

Analog Operation
This decoder can also be operated on analog layouts or ar-
eas of track that are analog. The decoder recognizes alter-
nating current (DC) and automatically adapts to the analog
track voltage. All functions that were set under mfx or DCC
for analog operation are active (see Digital Operation).
Digital Operation
The decoders are multi-protocol decoders. These decoders
can be used under the following digital protocols: mfx, DCC
or MM.
Address set at the factory: DCC 03 / MM 24
The digital protocol with the most possibilities is the highest
order digital protocol. The sequence of digital protocols in
descending order is:
Priority 1: mfx
Priority 2: DCC
Priority 3: MM
Note: If two or more digital protocols are recognized in the
track, the decoder automatically takes on the highest value
digital protocol.For example, if mfx & DCC are recognized,
the mfx digital protocol is taken on by the decoder. Individual
protocols can be deactivated with Parameter CV 50.
Note: Please note that not all functions are possible in all
digital protocols. Several settings for functions, which are
supposed to be active in analog operation, can be done
under mfx and DCC.

Notes on digital operation
• The operating instructions for your central unit will give
you exact procedures for setting the different parame-
ters.
• 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 (CV 29/Bit 2 = 0).
mfx Protocol
Addresses
• No address is required; each decoder is given a one-
time, unique identifier (UID).
• The decoder automatically registers itself on a Central
Station or a Mobile Station with its UID.
• Name set at the factory: Tiger 233
Programming
• The characteristics can be programmed using the
graphic screen on the Central Station or also partially
with the Mobile Station.
• All of the Configuration Variables (CV) can be read and
programmed repeatedly.
• The programming can be done either on the main track or
the programming track.
• The default settings (factory settings) can be produced
repeatedly.
