TCS Function Pagination System
The Function Pagination locomotive supports TCS' new "function pagination" system. This makes it easy to access all 28 functions and all lighting effects on throttles with limited function access by adding an offset to the pressed function button (offset of +10 for function page 2; offset of +20 for function page 3). For example, to access function 15:
- Press function 8 twice to rotate through the function pages until the decoder announces "function page [two]"
- Press button 5 on your throttle/controller
- The decoder will activate function 5 + 10 (page 2 offset) = 15
Note: the decoder supports accessing all decoder functions regardless of the currently selected function page by pressing the corresponding buttons on your throttle.
If you have a command station which supports all 28 function buttons and would like to disable function pagination, this may be done by re-configuring CV 177
