Connection to Programming Track
The programming track is not allowed to have any direct electrical connection to the layout and
there can be no consumers (e.g. lighting, switch decoders, illuminated buffer stop etc.)
connected to it. It is needed for the reading, programming and editing of decoders using DCC
or Motorola (MM2) protocols. For the registration of mfx-locomotives no programming track is
needed.

the red handle and drag up. Dragging
down will shrink the locomotive list or
hide it entirely.
Function Selection: Call up the
functions of a locomotive by tapping
on the "F" symbol on the upper edge
of the spontaneous control (picture
right). A finger tap switches a
function.
Placement: Place the
mfx locomotive fully
onto the track. The
registration of the mfx
locomive is possible
on both the main and
programming track.
Pulling up Items List: Touch
and drag the green handle
down: the accessory list
opens as much as necessary.
The dragging of the handle
upwards shrinks the
accessory list or hides it
entirely.
Driving a locomotive: Press and hold on the
locomotive symbol. The spontaneous
control will display (picture left). A finger tap
on the throttle sets the speed. Alternately
you can push the green bar upward. Close
the spontaneous control by selecting to the
right or left of it on the screen.
Reading: The CS3 will
automatically begin
reading data after a few
seconds.
Finished: The newly
registered locomotive
will appear in the
locomitive list with a red
border. A red "m" at the
edge of the locomotive
list also indicates the
registration of a new
mfx locomotive.

Overview of the Central Station 3 plus and Central Station Technical Data
Introduction
Quicker, more comfortable and user friendly: the new Central Station 3 offers model railroaders
not only the latest technology for controlling multiple trains, but thanks to a modern
touchscreen, a user interface that facilitates intuitive control. Just like modern smart phones
and tablets, you only need touch the screen and can zoom in on sections. For example,
through finger swipes (drag & drop) you can quickly and simply bring locomotives into the
console, and bring electro-magnetic items onto the track layout.
Premiering with the Central Station 3, Märklin is offering two versions of the controller: the
Central Station 3 plus (60216) and the Central Station 3 (60226). Important: the operation of
both controllers is identical. This user guide is thus valid for both versions. The two versions
of the CS3 differ principally in their hardware:
Central Station 3 plus (60216): This version enables the deployment of more Central Stations
together. Additionally, it provides its own S88 port facilitating the direct connection to the
S88 feedback modules 60881 and 60882.
Central Station 3 (60226): This version is ideal for layouts to be controlled from only one
central controller. S88 feedback modules should be connected over the Link S88 (60883).
An overview of the connection possibilities of the controller can be found on pages 37 and 38.
For trouble free operations in these complex systems, it is recommended you utilize the tried
and tested Märklin system components. With the usage of 3rd party components, no guarantee
for usability can be made by Märklin. The user is liable for any damages that result from the use
of 3rd party components.
When connecting the layout, stick to the demonstrated techniques and principles in the manual.
The use of other circuits can easily lead to damage of the electronic components. Thus please
resist trying "expensive" experiments.
The Central Station is not a toy. Ensure that this device is only used by children to control a
model railroad. We wish you lots of joy in the use of the Central Station on your model railroad.

To begin with, it is recommended to register all locomotives fitted with mfx
decoders (see quickstart on page 5). This is the easiest way to populate the
locomotive list (picture above) and quickly start driving.
Tip: Although one can register multiple mfx locomotives simultaneously, it is
recommended you add them one after the other. From experience, this proceeds
quicker.
Tip: Ensure the STOP-button is not active. In Stop-mode no registration is
possible.
Pulling Locomotives into the Throttle Console.
To select a locomotive, drag
it out of the locomotive list
to the left (as pictured) or to
the right screen edge.
Release your finger over the
automatically displayed
throttle console. The
throttle console will
displayed the chosen
locomotive, the mfx
protocol, the green direction
arrow, the speed regulator
and at the very top, the
STOP control. If a
locomotive is moving, this is
indicated by way of a green
bar at the upper edge of the
locomotive symbol.
Inclusion of Locomotives: Automatic registration of mfx Locomotives
Drag the red
circle with a
small white
locomotive
toward the
screen center:
The locomotive
functions will
become visible,
eight per
column.
Depending on
how far you
open the list, up
to 32 functions
can be
displayed at
once.
Tap on the throttle;
the green bar
appears: the
locomotive moves.
Alternatively swipe
on the bar or
control via the red
knob - even when
the Throttle
Console is not
visible. With the
green arrow - or
with a click on the
knob - change the
direction of travel.
By tapping the
function symbols
you activate the
functions. In the
picture to the left
one sees light,
and sounds of
coupling/
decoupling,
whistle, and fan
activated.
Tip: Tapping
the red circle
closes and
opens the
Throttle
Console.
If the speed bar
is depicted in
red, the Stop-
Mode is active.
To clear it, press
the STOP button
or tap the STOP
symbol at the
top of the
Throttle
Console.
The two throttle associated
locomotives are highlighted with a
small red dot in the locomotive list.

Locomotive List: Sorting and Searching
Display of the registered locomotives is dependent on the mode of operation. Finding specific locomotives / Live Search
The various sorting possibilities
In order to provide better
oversight, the Locomotive List
can be filtered by operations
mode.
With a tap on the Loco symbol
at the upper edge of the
Locomotive List you open a
small menu.
Tapping the loco symbol again,
hides the selection menu.
Important: To view traction
subsets, you must deactivate
"show all".
For example: a tap on "Steam
engine" shows all locomotives
with steam traction. The others
are hidden. A small red dot
indicates a filter is active.
Tip: After selecting a traction
type (e.g. Steam/Diesel) you can
easily sell all locomotives again
by selecting "show all".
More oversight is enabled via
the use of the pop-up menu at
the upper edge of the
locomotive list. Just tap on it
and the menu opens. You can
sort by locomotive name by
tapping on "Name". The trains
are then alphabetically sorted
(see left).
Want to find a
specific locomotive?
Tap on the "Search"
magnifier at the
upper border of the
locomotive list and
enter the name or
part of the name.
The CS3 updates the
search results after
every character
entered via a live
search. Important:
To end a search you
must clear the entire
search term.
The small red dot at the base of the magnifier
symbol indicates that a search is active.
Tapping on "Type" sorts the
locomotive list by type in the
sequence: Steam, Diesel,
Electric, Other. Choose
"Recent" to see the most
recently used locomotives.
"V/max" sorts the locomotive
list based on the maximum
speed per the settings under
the "tachometer" specified
speed (see page 11).
