INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing MRC’s Prodigy Advance2 DCC (Digital Command Control)

System. You now own one of the most advanced, easy to use DCC systems available.

It comes as a complete system with a Command Station (base unit), power supply and

LCD Cab/Handheld with cable. The MRC Prodigy Advance2 DCC system will enhance the

enjoyment of your train layout for many years to come. Here at MRC, we pride ourselves

in giving you the most advanced, reliable and easy to use DCC train controls. With up

to 9,999 addresses available and use of up to 99 Cabs, you can expand your railroad

empire as much as you desire. From a beginner’s 4x8 layout to a massive club layout, the

Prodigy Advance2 gives you everything you want.

NOTE: Although there are Quick-start instructions on the back of the Cab/Handheld,

please read these instructions thoroughly to better understand and enjoy your Prodigy

Advance2DCC system.

DCC BASIC BACKGROUND

A DCC system consists of a DCC Command Station that sends DCC commands to your

layout and DCC decoders installed in your locos that receive the DCC commands. Each

decoder equipped loco has its own address. Each decoder receives DCC commands but

only follows those commands matching its address. No more multiple blocks and no more

multiple power packs. With DCC, you can run di󰀨erent locos with di󰀨erent speeds and

directions all on the same track. You can also turn on/o󰀨 the locomotive’s headlight and

activate sounds if your loco is equipped with a sound decoder. Please visit our website at

www.modelrectier.com for more information about other DCC products.

Please read this manual and your decoder manual carefully before installing and operating

your DCC system.

NOTE: The Prodigy Advance2does not support NON-decoder equipped or analog locos.

NOTE: For more information on DCC or Prodigy Advance2, visit the Customer

Service & Resources section of our web site at www.modelrectier.com or visit the

National Model Railroad Association’s website at www.nmra.org.

OPERATION

QUICK START

Connecting to Your Layout

Follow the diagram to connect the Command Station (base unit) to your layout.

1. Plug the power supply into the

base unit.

2. Plug the AC line cord

(110VAC, 60Hz) into a wall

outlet.

3. Using a small at-bladed

screwdriver, attach two wires

(22 AWG or heavier) from

the Main Track layout to

the terminals marked Main

Track and two wires from

the Program Track to the

terminals marked Program

Track

4. Plug one end of the cable

into the Cab/Handheld and

the other into a Cab Jack on the base unit. Do not use the jack labeled “Factory Use

Only” as this is for future upgrades.

5. Double-check all wiring and then turn the power switch on the base unit to the “On”

position. The pilot light should be on and you will be ready to run your decoder

equipped locos.

If you have more than one cab, you will need an Extension Plate (Item: 0001501) for your

extra cab. See Adding More Cabs (page 8).

Running a Loco

NOTE: First, turn the Cab switch on the base unit to “Cab #1 to #8” for faster response

time.

To run a loco, you have to rst know its address. Most decoders you purchase have the

factory default address #3. If you purchase a decoder equipped loco, its address may be

its road number. Read your decoder and/or loco manual for your decoder address.

To select a loco, press the LOCO key on your cab. Using the numeric keypad (0 - 9),

enter the loco address. Press ENTER. You have just acquired the loco. The Cab will

automatically remember the loco address for later recall.

Use the DIRECTION key to set the loco’s direction. Use the THROTTLE knob to set

the loco’s speed. The selected loco, or current loco, will begin moving. For increasing or

decreasing the loco’s speed by 1, please tap the +1 or -1 key. Do not hold the -1 key,

since this is also the DEL key and will delete the loco. To toggle the headlight (F0) on or

o󰀨, press 0.

NOTE: A blinking loco address indicates that another Cab is also controlling that loco.

This is just a reminder and does not aect your control of the loco. However, since two

Cabs are trying to control the same loco simultaneously, the loco may not act as you

expect. One operator will have to relinquish control of the loco by deleting the loco from

his Cab for proper operation.

DO NOT connect the programming track and

the main track. This will damage the unit.

Page: 6

Controlling Accessory Functions

To control accessory functions F0 - F9, press 0 - 9. To control F10 - F28, press SHIFT rst

and then press two digits. When F1-F12 are on, F1 - F12 will be displayed on the LCD.

F13 - F28 will not be displayed. (F0 controls headlights and will display with a light bulb

icon.)

The left LCD display shows that the

current loco is 3802 running in reverse at

a speed of 102. Its accessory functions

F1 and F11 are on.

Recalling Locos

To call up previous locos stored in the

memory, press RECALL. You can recall

up to 25 locos.

NOTE: Although the Cab can store up to

25 locos during operation, if you unplug

the Cab from the base unit it will delete all but the last 5 locos used.

Deleting Locos

The Cab can store up to 25 locos. If you select a new loco when the Cab is full, the

new loco will replace the current loco. The current loco will be lost. To prevent this, we

recommend you recall unused locos and delete them by pressing and holding DEL for 2

seconds.

NOTE: You can’t delete all loco addresses. The last address always stays in the stack.

Emergency Stopping

For emergency stopping of the current loco, press STOP. Pressing and holding STOP

for 2 seconds will stop the Main Track output. The 2 lights on the base unit will blink. To

restore the Main Track output, press and hold STOP for 2 seconds again.

Speed Steps

Speed steps are incremental steps the loco takes to go from 0 to top speed. There are

three speed steps: 14, 28 and 128. The higher the speed steps setting, the higher the

number of di󰀨erent speeds on which the loco can operate. When you enter a new loco

address (an address that has not been stored in the Cab’s memory), Prodigy Advance2

will set 28 speed steps as the default setting for that address. In order to operate your loco

properly, you may need to change the speed steps setting to match the decoder’s speed

steps.

To select the speed step setting to better match your decoder’s speed step, press SPD

STEP repeatedly until you see your desired speed step setting. Then press ENTER. The

selected speed steps setting will apply only to that address.

NOTE: Use of the speed step button will not alter the speed step originally programmed

into the decoder. It only matches the throttle to the decoder. Check your decoder manual

for speed step settings.

Yard Mode On/O󰀨

To toggle the Yard Mode feature on or o󰀨, press SYS and 3. In standard throttle mode, the

throttle only controls loco speed. When the Yard Mode feature is on (“Yard” displays on

the LCD), the yard throttle will control both the speed and direction of the loco.

When the loco is traveling forward, turning the yard throttle clockwise will increase the

Page: 7

loco’s speed. Turning counter-clockwise will decrease its speed until 0. Continuing to turn

counter-clockwise will reverse the loco’s direction. Continuing to turn counter-clockwise

will increase the loco’s speed in the reverse. Turning clockwise will decrease its speed

in the reverse until 0. Continuing to turn clockwise will change the loco’s direction from

reverse to forward.

Fast Clock

To view the fast clock, press TIME. The time will replace the address display on the LCD.

You can still run the current loco while the time is displayed. To return to the loco address

display, press TIME again. The time

information is stored in the base unit and

transmitted to the Cab. Each Cab displays

the same time.

The LCD display shows the time as

8:02AM. The current loco is moving forward

at a speed of 102.

Overload and Short Circuit

The base unit is rated at 3.5 amps. It is up

to you to note how many locos and lighted passenger cars can be run on the layout at the

same time without triggering the circuit protector. If there is an overload or short circuit,

the base unit will stop Main Track output for 2 seconds then resume. Please remove

the overload or short circuit for proper operation. When operating larger layouts with

numerous locos and accessories being operated at the same time or when running 2-rail

“O” or “G” scales, you may need a DCC power booster. We recommend you use MRC

Power Booster (0001521) to boost your DCC layout.

NOTE: Do not use the base unit or power supply to power accessories.

Shutting Down the Prodigy Advance2

Bring all locos to a stop, then turn the power switch to the “O󰀨” position before unplugging

the AC adapter from the AC outlet. This will allow the base unit to store the current

running information, for the next session.

CAB SETUP

Setting Cab Addresses

You can use up to 99 Cabs with the Prodigy Advance2. Each Cab must have a unique

address. Any Cab you purchase has the factory default address #1. Cab #1 is the Master

Cab that can perform all functions. Any additionally purchased Cabs are also Master Cabs

and must have their addresses changed from #1 to their own unique addresses. Keep

all cab addresses in numerical order. Never skip a cab address. Doing so can result in a

cab not responding properly.

NOTE: Do not duplicate Cab addresses.

To view your Cab address, press SYS and 6. The current Cab address will momentarily

display. If you wish to change it, enter a new address (1-99) followed by ENTER.

Otherwise, press ENTER to exit. Do not duplicate Cab addresses.

Setting the Total Number of Operational Cabs (Master Cab Only)

The more Cabs in use at one time, the slower the system response is from cab to loco

because the base unit can communicate with only one Cab at a time. Setting the total

number of operational Cabs will speed up your Cab’s response time.

Page: 8

1. Make sure your Cab is the Master Cab (Cab #1). Only the Master cab (Cab #1) can

set the number of Cabs allowed to operate on the DCC layout.

2. Turn the Cab Select switch on the base unit to the “All Cabs” position. The switch

must be in this position to limit the number of cabs.

3. Press SYS and 9.

4. Using 0 – 9, enter the address of the last operational cab. Press ENTER.

EXAMPLE: If you use 10 Cabs and program the Cab addresses #1 - #10, pressing SYS,

9, 10, and ENTER will set the last operational Cab number to 10. The base unit will not

spend time trying to communicate to Cabs #11 - #99.

If you use 3 Cabs and program the Cab addresses #1 - #3, pressing SYS, 9,3, and

ENTER will set the last operation Cab number to 3. The base unit will only communicate

to Cabs #1 - #3, thereby improving the response time.

Hint: If you are using 8 Cabs or less, set all Cab addresses sequentially starting from #1

and turn the Cab select switch on the base unit to the “#1 - #8” position. This prevents the

base unit from trying to communicate to Cabs #9 - #99, thus saving time.

Adding More Cabs

The base unit of your Prodigy Advance2 DCC system has three Cab Jacks. If you use

more than three Cabs or you want to install extra Cab Jacks around your layout, you need

to use MRC Prodigy Advance2 Extension Plates (Item: 0001501). The base unit is able to

use ve extension plates. If you want to add a sixth extension plate, you need a powered

extension plate (Item: 0001502).

Setting Last Cab Allowed to Program Locos on the Main Track (Master Cab Only)

This feature prevents “novice” operators on your railroad from mistakenly reprogramming

everything on the layout.

1. Make sure your Cab is the Master Cab. #1.

2. Press SYS and 7.

3. Using 0 - 9, enter the number of the last Cab allowed to program on the Main Track.

Press ENTER.

EXAMPLE: If you press the SYS, 7, 3 and ENTER. Cab #4 and above cannot program

on the Main Track.

Setting Last Cab Allowed to Program on the Program Track (Master Cab Only)

1. Make sure your Cab is the Master Cab.

2. Press SYS and 8.

3. Using 0 - 9, enter the number of the last Cab allowed to program on the Program

Track. Press ENTER.

EXAMPLE: If you press SYS, 8, 2, and ENTER, Cab #3 and above cannot program on

the Program Track.

PROGRAMMING DECODERS

The Prodigy Advance2 allows you to easily program most NMRA compatible decoders. It

guides you step by step through the programming process. The Prodigy Advance2 allows

you to program decoders on a separate Program Track or on the Main Track layout, all

without a󰀨ecting any other locos operating on the Main Track. A Program Track is a

separate piece of track isolated from the rest of the layout. It is only used to program

decoders.

Page: 9

DO NOT connect the program track and the main track as this will damage the unit.

Decoder Terminology

NOTE: Before you start programming, please familiarize yourself with the following

terminology.

Loco Address (Adr): The address is the number assigned to a decoder to identify the

decoder. The Prodigy Advance2 can program two digit (1-127) or four digit (128-9999)

addresses.

Start Voltage (SV): This is the voltage required to start the loco’s motor and overcome

its weight and friction to make it begin to move. You can program your loco with a start

voltage so that it will begin to move as soon as the throttle is turned.

Top Voltage (TV): The top voltage (top speed) is the voltage (speed) at full throttle. The

Prodigy Advance2 top end voltage is set for maximum output.

If you are running a switcher, you may want the top end voltage to be less than full output

for more realistic performance at top throttle setting.

Acceleration Rate (Acc): This rate simulates the drag of a heavy load as the loco speeds

up so when you increase the speed setting, the loco will gradually increase its speed.

Deceleration Rate (dEc): This rate simulates the drag of a heavy load as the loco slows

down so when you decrease the speed setting, the loco will gradually decrease its speed.

PROGRAMMING LOCO ON THE PROGRAM TRACK

1. Make sure your Cab is allowed to program on the Program Track.

2. Place the loco on the Program Track. Press PROG to select “Prog Prog Track”. Press

ENTER.

3. First, “Adr” will ash, prompting you to program the loco address. Using 0 - 9, enter

the loco address followed by ENTER, or press ENTER to skip.

NOTE: For the beginner or if you want to only program the loco address, you can stop

right here. Put the loco back on the Main Track. Select the loco by pressing LOCO then

enter the loco address and press ENTER. Now you can run the loco. The Program

Track is strictly for programming and reading decoders. Locos will not run on the

program track.

4. Next, “SV” will ash, prompting you to program the Start Voltage. Input data and then

press ENTER.

5. Next, “Acc” will ash, prompting you to program the acceleration rate. Input data and

then press ENTER.

6. Next, “dEc” will ash, prompting you to program the deceleration rate. Input data and

then press ENTER.

7. Next, “TV” will ash, prompting you to program the Top Voltage. Input data then press

ENTER.

8. Finally, “CV#” will ash, prompting you to program a CV (Conguration Variable). At

this point, you have already nished most of the decoder programming. You can stop

programming here by pressing ENTER.

9. If you want to program a CV, enter a CV number. Press ENTER. Then enter CV data.

Press ENTER. “CV#” will ash again, prompting you to program another CV. To skip,

press ENTER.

NOTE: Programming a CV with incorrect data can cause a decoder malfunction. Read

your decoder manual carefully before programming a CV. Also, read the Conguration

Variables section.

Page: 10

PROGRAMMING LOCOS ON THE MAIN TRACK

Programming on the Main Track can save you the e󰀨ort of moving a loco to the Program

Track for programming. However, you have to know the loco address in order to program

on the Main Track. Otherwise you have to program the loco on the Program Track. Not

all decoders support the Program on Main feature. Please read your decoder’s manual to

check whether the decoder supports this feature.

1. Make sure your Cab is allowed to program on the Main Track

2. To program on the Main Track, press PROG to select “Prog Main Track”. Press

ENTER. The current loco address will ash, prompting you to program the current

loco.

3. To program the current loco, press ENTER; to program another loco, enter its address

and press ENTER.

4. The rest of the programming procedures are the same as the Programming on

Program Track procedures (see above). We recommend you bring the loco to a

stop before programming because if the moving loco has a bad pickup, it may fail to

receive the program command, causing a malfunction.

NOTE: If you only need to program CV you can short cut by pressing CV ON MAIN

More about programming locomotive address on the Program Track or Main Track

To program a locomotive address involves programming a series of CVs such as CV1,

CV17, CV18, CV19 and CV29. This can be somewhat complicated. For most decoders,

Prodigy Advance2 automatically handles this for you when programming the loco address.

However, it may fail to program some old decoders and some new sound decoders

made by QSI®. It does not mean that you cannot program these decoders. It only means

you cannot use the Prodigy Advance2’s easy address programming feature. For QSI®

decoders please refer to your decoder’s manual and use CV programming to program the

loco address. For some old decoders, you have to skip the Addr programming and use

the CV program mode to program CV29 with a value of 2 and CV1 with a short address

(1-127). Detailed steps are as follows:

1. Press Prog to select Prog Prog Track

2. Press Enter six times until CV# displays on the screen

READING LOCO’S DECODER VALUES ON THE PROGRAM

TRACK

The Prodigy Advance2 DCC system gives you the ability to read back CV values of

a decoder equipped loco on the Program Track. This feature is useful if you do not

remember the decoder address or what CV values your decoder has. Not all decoders

support this feature. Please read your decoder’s manual to check whether it supports this

feature. Even with decoders that support the readback CV feature, the unit may fail to read

the CV. This does not mean your Prodigy Advance2 is defective. No DCC System is able

to read all decoders 100%. This should not a󰀨ect the operation of the decoder because

you are always able to program your decoder.
