This page contains a list of all of the lighting effects available on TCS Non-sound decoders of recent production (2012 or newer) and WOWSound Version 4 decoders. If your decoder is older than 2012 or Version 4, some of the items may not apply.
These lighting effects can be used in conjunction with the Function Remapping instructions. You can also consult our Support Page for Decoder Lighting for more information.

Use a single value from one of the three columns on the right to program a Lighting Effect CV. The value chosen will select the Lighting Effect and Direction the light will be active in. For example, a value of 80 programmed into CV 51 will set up the Double Pulse Strobe effect when Lighting Function 1 when the function is ON and the locomotive is in Reverse.
