LH90 Engineers Throttle

Welcome!

Congratulations for purchasing the Digital plus by Lenz ® LH90

throttle. We wish you much enjoyment with using this X press N et

based throttle with your NMRA DCC model railroad control

system.

The LH90 hand held controller is a universal data input device in

the Digital plus by Lenz ® system. With it you can:

- operate your locomotives

- use smart-consisting to assemble, operate, and disassemble multi-

unit consists.

- throw turnouts, set signals or activate uncoupling tracks

- program locomotive and accessory decoders as well as feedback

devices

- read out and set handheld configurations

This operation manual is intended to make using the LH90 easy for you.

To get started, first read the section “First Steps". After you have

understood the basic locomotive control, you can familiarize yourself with

the full range of functions of this hand held controller step by step and put

them to use.

1 Overview

Important advice, please read first!

Your LH90 hand held throttle is a component of your

Digital plus by Lenz ® system and was submitted to intensive

testing before delivery. Lenz Elektronik GmbH guarantees fault-

free operation if the advice given below is followed:

The LH90 is authorized for operation only with a system that fully

supports X press Net such as any Digital plus by Lenz ® system.

Any use other than the one described in this operating manual is

not permitted and all guarantees become invalid if the LH90 is

used in an inappropriate way.

The operation of LH90 requires Digital plus system version 3 or

greater. The LH90 cannot to be used with devices which use older

software versions.

) Do not connect the LH90 to any other device. Even if other

devices use the same connectors, you must not operate the

LH90 with those devices. The fact that the connectors are

similar does not automatically mean that you may use them

for operation, even if you are dealing with other model

railroad control systems.

Do not expose the LH90 to moisture or direct sunlight.

1.1 The range of functions of the LH90

• With the LH90 you may control up to 9999 digital locomotives

independently. With address 0 you control a conventional

locomotive without a decoder with your system.

• You can address up to 28 functions in your locomotive

decoders, if your command Station supports F0 and F1-28.

You can on a locomotive per locomotive basis set F1-F28 to

be momentary or on/off.

•

Depending on the command station used (LZ100, LZV100,

SET02, “compact”), you can control, assemble and delete

multiple units (consists).

•

You can set the running-notches (speed steps) mode for the

locomotive address currently displayed.

•

Locomotive features such as starting and braking delay can

be set through "programming on the main" (operations mode

programming) or through "programming in service mode".

LH90 Engineers Throttle

The LH90 can also switch turnouts. Depending on the

command station used, you can switch up to 999 turnouts

(and signals).

•

1.2 What’s New in Version 3.6?

We have added several major improvements in Version 3.6. These

Include Shortcut Menu Keys for the most important operations support

for functions F1-F28, ability to set up momentary functions and

improving throttle handoff of operating locomotives.

1.3 Notations and symbols:

( Ö P. 23) This shift indicates particular pages of the operating

manual which contain further information on the subject under

discussion.

) Texts marked with this symbol and a frame contain

information and advice of special importance.

Your First LH90 Session

2.1 Connecting the LH90 to your DCC System

Plug one end of the coil cable with the phone connector into the

socket of the LH90. Pug the end of the cable with the 5 pin din

plug into your Digital plus by Lenz ® X press Net .

As is the case with all X press Net devices, your LH90 can be

disconnected and reconnected during operation. To make use of

this feature of X press Net , install several LA152 adapters or din

sockets around your layout. This keeps operators close to the

action.

Connecting to a LZ100 or LZV100 command station

Plug the 5-pole DIN-plug

- into the 5-pole DIN-socket at the rear of your LZ100/LZV100

- into a LA152 adapter (or Atlas Panel #322), or din socket on the

back side of the Command Station, the LZ100/LZV100.

Connecting to a "compact" or Atlas Commander

Plug the 5-pole DIN-plug into a LA152 adapter or din socket that is

connected to the "compact" or Atlas Commander.
