10 Programming Mode
Using the [↵] key, the programming will be carried
out in the desired register. Leaving the column
using the [←] or [→] keys then no programming
will be carried out.
Whilst the programming is under way, the activity
of the TWIN-CENTER will be indicated in the dis-
play by the word "prog" and by a beam crossing
the upper part of the display. After the successful
programming of a register value "o.k" will appear
in the upper part of the display.
If an error occurs during the programming, then
an error indication will be shown in the display
(see chapter 10.5.8).
If the [↵] key is pressed during the cursor is in the
left hand column, the TWIN-CENTER will read out
the value of the register. During the read out pro-
cedure, the word "read" will identify the read
activity of the TWIN-CENTER together with a
beam across the upper part of the display. This
process can take up to 30 seconds.
If an error occurs during the read out procedure,
then an error indication will be shown in the dis-
play (see chapter 10.5.8).
ADVICE
One cause for the error indication could
be that the decoder register is a register
which cannot be read or written, or the
vehicle is not in proper contact with the
programming track. In this case, make
sure that proper contact is made, and
then with the cursor once again in the left
hand column with the [←] key, the read
out procedure can be carried out with the
[↵] key again.
After a successful read out procedure the indica-
tion "o.k." appears in the display together with
the value of the register. This value can, as descri-
bed above, be changed.
TAKE CARE
The register number 1 contains the
address of the decoder.
Especially when dealing with older decoders, a
value should never be entered which is larger

than the highest possible decoder address for
this type (see decoder description). In case of
doubt, no address higher than 99.
10.5.2 Bytewise CV-Programming
With the menu "CV-Prog.bytew", DCC-decoders
which expect their programming in up to 1024
configuration variables (CV) can be programmed.
The meaning of these CV's you can extract from
the decoder's operating instructions.
The CV-programming is also known as "direct
programming". One operation can take up to 5
seconds.
The program menu is shown in the following display:
The number of the desired configuration variables
(CV1...1024) can be entered in the left hand
column, in the right hand column the value which
this configuration variable should have. Possible
values are from 0 to 255.
The programming and read out procedures are
described in chapter 10.5.1.
10.5.3 Bitwise CV-Programming
With the menu "CV-Prog.bitw", DCC-decoders
which expect their programming in up to 1024
configuration variables (CV) can be programmed.
As opposed to the bytewise programming, here
each bit of a configuration variable can be indivi-
dually altered or read out. This is very handy for
configuration variables, as their individual bits
have different meanings and will be used to fix
the decoder options. The meaning of the Bits in
the respective CVs you can extract from the
decoder's operating instructions.
The program menu is shown in the following display:
The menu has three input columns. In the left
hand column the number of the desired configu-
