Before you start working with the Train Engineer Revolution there are a few concepts that
you need to understand.
2.4 TRAIN ENGINEER INSTRUCTION MANUAL NS Page 9 of 39
Operation Overview
The transmitter and receivers in your locomotives are designed to communicate and exchange
information about the way you want your trains to operate. In order to establish a link
between them you need to set up options in the transmitter. These include settings like the
locomotive’s name and road number, the top speed that you want it to achieve, the rate at
which you want it to accelerate and how long you want it to delay when the direction is
changed. Once these parameters are set the link between the units is finalized by a process
called “linking”. Once the transmitter and a locomotive’s receiver are bound together they are
set to communicate and run your train.
The second concept has to do with the Cab number that is associated with each locomotive.
The Cab numbers range from CAB-0 through CAB-49. Once you link a locomotive you must
select the Cab number that it will run under. This allows you to easily move between as many
as 50 locomotives while operating. The Cab number is also used to identify groups of
locomotives that you might want to run in a consist ‘MU’. Locomotives can be operated
independently or grouped for multiple unit operation. CAB-0, CAB-1 and CAB-2 might be
used to operate three different locomotives while CAB-3 can be used to operate those same
three locomotives in a consist ‘MU’. Changing between single unit (SU) operation and
multiple unit (MU) operation is as simple as selecting a Cab number.
Once you have an opportunity to experience the process used to operate trains with the TE
Revolution I think you will find that Aristo Craft has found an elegant solution to what can be
a complex problem

address for each locomotive.
For example you have three locomotives SD45 GP40 Dash 9 . The first locomotive SD45 you‘ ‘
link it under link address (00) the second GP40 under link address (01) and the third Dash 9
under link address (02).
Now you have to separately select a cab number for each locomotive under Add MU/SU
CAB.
Choose a cab number to run the above locomotive.
E.g. the (CAB NO:-0 SD45 ) (CAB NO: -1 GP40 ) AND (CAB NO: -2 DASH 9 . When“ ” “ ” “ ”
finished go to (SU [00] L49) and select the locomotive the above locomotives. Each loco must
have its own cab number and link address.
Do not confuse yourself with LINK ADDRESSES AND CAB NUMBERS.
MULTI UNITS ‘MU’

address for the locomotive must be chosen. To start from [00] quickly press the Stop/Enter
button. (Note: when linking a single unit [SU] multi unit [MU] each locomotive must have its
own linking address). Press the left or right arrow to select link address number.
2.4 TRAIN ENGINEER INSTRUCTION MANUAL NS Page 24 of 39
b] RX TYPE: [On Board / Base Rx] this option is use for which RX you are using. This option
should be set to ONBOARD. The Base Receiver is use for your Cab side or accessory
controller.
c] NAME: use the keypad to type numbers or letters to name the engine. Names may be up to 9
characters long, e.g. [GP40] EGGLINER OR MIKADO. To DELETE any numeric or
textual information press the # key.
d] ROAD NO: [5533] enter a road number of up to four characters
e] MOMENTUM: [0 - 100%] this sets the locomotive s momentum, the rate at which it accelerates or’
decelerates. The higher the momentum value the slower the locomotive will speed up when you
press the up arrow for acceleration.
f] DELAY : [0 5 sec] When the direction of the locomotive is reversed this setting determines how–
long, in seconds, that the locomotive will be completely stopped before it starts up again in the
other direction. The range is 0 to 5 seconds in 1/10th second increments.
g] MOTOR: [Rev Nor] sets the default direction of travel when the transmitter says the–
locomotive is going forward. This can be set to NOR (normal) or REV (reverse). If set to
normal NOR the locomotive will go forward. When direction [¡ DIR ] on the transmitter
shows that it is going forward. If set to reverse [REV] it will go backwards. Not all the
locomotive will run forward when the transmitter is set to normal [NOR].
h] HD DIR: [Rev Nor] sets the direction that the locomotive will be traveling for the headlight to–
be lit. This can be set to NOR (normal) or REV (reverse). If set to normal [NOR] the
headlight on the locomotive will come on when the locomotive is going forward. If set to
reverse [REV] the headlight will come on when the locomotive is going backwards Not all the
locomotive will run forward when the transmitter is set to normal [NOR].
i] HD LIGHT: [OFF/ON] turn the locomotive headlight ON or OFF. When this function is set to
on or off the headlight will not turn on or off until you return to the main operating screen.
j] TOP SPEED: [50 100%] sets the locomotives top speed as a percentage of its possible top speed.–
Increase or decrease the speed on the locomotive. This comes in handy if you have visitors who
are operating your trains and have been known to run them at too high a speed. If you set this
to 70% that is all the faster the locomotive will go, 70% of its possible top speed.
k] START SPEED: [0 25%] sets the speed at which acceleration of the locomotive begins. Start–
speed on 0% will start the loco slowly, 25% will start the loco quickly. If you have a large
locomotive or one that is pulling a long, heavy train you can set the start speed so that the
power level will jump to the set percentage as soon as you begin accelerating. For example, if
you have a locomotive that doesn't start moving till the throttle setting is at 25% you can set
2.4 TRAIN ENGINEER INSTRUCTION MANUAL NS Page 25 of 39
the start speed to that number and not have to wait for the speed to get to that level before the
train moves. As soon as you press the UP ARROW the speed will jump to 25%.
