Command Control operations
The Command Control environment
Command Control is the advanced model railroad control system from Lionel. Command
Control gives you the power to operate multiple Command-equipped vehicles on the same
track, at the same time.
To operate in Command mode, you need a Command Base and a CAB
Remote Controller. Find them both at your authorized Lionel retailer.
Place your vehicle on Lionel or
Lionel-compatible O gauge track.
2Address your vehicle using CAB-1.
• Press ENG and 1 on the numeric keypad of your CAB-1. This command
is sent by the CAB-1 to the Command Base, which then translates your
command into digital code. That code is sent around your railroad’s
outside rails in the form of a digital “halo.” All Command-equipped Lionel
engines listen to this digital communication, but they do not respond until
they hear their individual ID number—in this case, “1.”
• The digital language of TrainMaster Command—and not track
power—controls the actions of Command-equipped Lionel
engines. Track power is simply like gasoline in the tank of your car—it
gives you the power to go places, but it doesn’t tell you where to go or how
fast to get there.
• All Command-equipped vehicles come factory-programmed
with an ID# of “1.” To change the ID# of your vehicle, see page 14.
3Move ‘em out!
• Throttle up or press any command button on the CAB. Your vehicle will
respond to your every command. Read on.
1
• Make sure track power is OFF before placing your vehicle on
the track.
• Make sure your Lionel Command Base is plugged-in and its
communications wire is connected to the COMMON post on your Lionel
transformer or the U terminal on any of your installed PowerMasters.
• Once positioned on the track, increase track voltage to FULL (no
more than 20 volts). On PowerMasters, slide the CMD/CONV switch to CMD.

Your Command-equipped vehicle comes factory-programmed with an ID# of “1.” To
get your vehicle in action, set PowerMasters to CMD or set all power supplies on full
(no more than 19 volts). Press ENG and “1” on your CAB. Turn the throttle or press any
command button; your vehicle is ready for Command operations.
CAB commands for your vehicle
The CAB commands for the vehicle are outlined below.
Throttle
Turn the THROTTLE to the right to accelerate, left to decelerate.
AUX1, 0
Stops and resets the vehicle to the idle position; ready to start in the forward direction.
AUX1, 8
Turns the strobe light off.
AUX1, 9
Turns the strobe light on.
AUX2
Toggles the headlights on and off.
DIR
The DIR key is used to change the directional state of your vehicle. Use the DIR button to decelerate to a
complete stop; turn the throttle up, and the vehicle will accelerate in the opposite direction. There is no
neutral state.
BRAKE AND BOOST
The BOOST and BRAKE command buttons give you incremental control of speed and are the superior
way to handle grades, gradual stops-and-starts, and more.
In the TrainMaster Command Control environment, the Boost and Brake keys will increase and decrease
the speed of your vehicle only as long as the keys are held down.
In the LEGACY environment, the Boost and Brake keys can be set to maintain the speed without
reverting back to the previous set speed.
These settings will be lost when you assign a new engine ID number.
HALT
Press HALT to shut down all PowerMaster electrical output on your railroad. Stops all Command-
equipped Lionel locomotives in operation.
Use HALT only in emergency situations.

Reprogramming the Command reverse unit to restore features
Due to the inevitable derailments and static, it is possible that your Command reverse
unit could someday lose its setup program. The symptom of this condition would be
unresponsiveness in Command mode. This can be easily remedied by “reprogramming” your
Command reverse unit using the following steps.
STEP 1: Move the Command Reverse Unit switch on your vehicle to the PRG position.
STEP 2: Plug in your Command Base.
STEP 3: Place the vehicle on track, then turn on power to your track.
STEP 4: Press ENG then input the vehicle’s ID#. Press SET.
STEP 5: Turn off power to your track and wait ten seconds.
STEP 6: Remove the vehicle from your track, and move the Command Reverse Unit switch to
the RUN position.
STEP 7: Place the vehicle back on track, then turn power on to the track.
STEP 8: Press ENG and the ID#, then operate as normal.

Command Control operations
Assigning your vehicle a new ID#
We recommend that you choose an easy to remember ID# for your engine. You may choose a
part of the engine road number or any two-digit number that is not used by another engine.
Write the number on a small piece of tape and put this on the bottom of the fuel tank to aid in
remembering.
A
s your fleet of Command-equipped Lionel vehicles grows, you’ll want to give your vehicle
a more individualized number. Choose from any between 1 and 99. To make things easy,
use a portion of your vehicle’s cab number.
Set the vehicle’s Command reverse unit switch to PRG (see Figure 1 on
page 9). Plug in the Command Base and place the vehicle on track, then power up. Using
CAB, press ENG, the vehicle ID# that you select and then press the SET button on the CAB
remote. See the headlight flicker; that’s the Command reverse unit confirming the new ID#.
Set the Command reverse unit switch to RUN. Your vehicle is ready for operations with its all-
new ID#.

3Move ‘em out!
Get your vehicle moving. Press the DIRECTION button on your Lionel
transformer. This sequences the Command reverse unit to the next operating state.
Adjust track voltage until your vehicle moves at your desired speed. To increase
speed, increase track voltage. To decrease speed, reduce voltage. To stop the vehicle,
turn-off track power, or cycle it to neutral.
Place your vehicle on Lionel or Lionel-compatible
O gauge track.
2Power up your vehicle with your transformer.
Your vehicle is designed to operate on 7-18 volts alternating current
(AC). Virtually all Lionel and Lionel-compatible alternating-current
transformers are suitable.
Do not power your vehicle with direct current (DC). Damage to
sensitive electronic components may occur.
When you first power up your track, the vehicle will wait between
three and eight seconds as it “listens” for digital language from the
TrainMaster Command Base (available separately). When it has determined that it’s
on a conventional (non-Command) railroad, the vehicle’s headlight will illuminate
and RailSounds will fire up. At this point, the vehicle is in neutral. (This occurs
when placing the vehicle on your railroad for the first time. Thereafter, it will start
in forward following every three-second power
interruption.)

Switch overview
Use the Command Reverse Unit Switch to “lock” your locomotive in a single direction, or
neutral, in the Conventional environment when the switch is placed in the PGM position.
See Figure 1 below.
Also, the switch is used to assign an ID# and reprogram the locomotive in Command
operation when the switch is in the PGM position.

Using your vehicle’s ElectroCouplers in the non-Command
environment
To uncouple rolling stock from your vehicle’s rear ElectroCoupler in the non-Command
environment, you must rely on a piece of rolling stock equipped with Lionel magnetic couplers
coupled directly to your vehicle’s ElectroCouplers. The magnetic coupler on the rolling stock will
then react to the magnetic field generated by a Lionel Remote-Control or Uncoupling Track section
(available separately, 6-65530 for O gauge, 6-65149 or 6-12746 for O-27 gauge, and 6-12020 or
6-12054 for FasTrack layouts). Place your rolling stock’s coupler “trigger disc” over the central
coil of a Remote-Control or Uncoupling Track section and press UNCOUPLE on the controller. The
magnetic field pulls the disc downward, and the coupler opens.
Your vehicle’s ElectroCoupler will NOT open manually or by using a Remote-Control
Track section.

Maintaining and servicing your vehicle
Lubricating your vehicle
H
elp your Lionel vehicle lead a long and productive life on your railroad by maintaining it
properly.
We recommend that you purchase a Lionel Lubrication and Maintenance Kit (no. 6-62927),
available from your Lionel dealer. Two basic rules to keep in mind: never over-lubricate (a small
amount will do), and avoid getting grease or oil on the vehicle’s wheels or your track. You’ll know
your vehicle requires lubrication when visual inspection reveals dryness on the parts indicated in
Figure 3 below. Remove accumulated dirt and dust before lubricating, and always lubricate any
vehicle emerging from prolonged storage.
