Dynamis ProBox
“Factory Reset” in the “System Menu” of a Handset you will only reset the applicable
Handset. If it is in range of a Pro Box with the same BaseID, it will immediately
resynchronise to this Pro Box.
The BaseID and RemoteID of the Handset will both be reset to 0 and may need
to be restored to appropriate values to operate correctly the particular system
in use.
2. Global Locomotive Roster reset in Pro Box and Handsets
Reset the locomotive roster of the Pro Box and all attached handsets, write in Service
Mode to CV=7, VALUE=151 using the “Programming Menu” of a Handset. The
BaseID, RemoteID and some other configuration data on the Handset won’t be
changed, but the configuration data of the Pro Box will be reset. Afterwards all
Handsets resynchronise to the Pro Box with a now empty locomotive roster.

3 Operation
3.1 Before powering on a Dynamis system, please ensure
:
•
The Pro Box jumpers and each handset in use have
all
been set the same
Base ID
:
the default is 0 which requires no jumpers and only should be changed if other
Dynamis systems are in operation in the vicinity.
•
Each Handset to be used has been set to a different
Handset ID
( 0 to 3)
•
Changes should be made before the Basestation is powered up.
•
Power on the Basestation; then power on Handsets. Take note of the following
comments regarding the choice and synchronisation of roster that is to be used
•
Power down in reverse order. Handsets first, Pro Box last.
•
Units must not be switched off during data transmission
.
3.2 Synchronisation of the locomotive roster
When using the Dynamis Command Station as a standalone unit, the locomotive roster is
handled on the Dynamis Handset. However, when using the Pro Box every unit in the system
(Pro Box and up to 4 Handsets) has a copy of the locomotive roster, which must be
synchronized.
Synchronization will normally automatically be done in the background and can last up to 1
minute per unit - indicated by the flashing of the yellow LED. The system can be used during
synchronisation with slightly reduced reactivity, but the locomotive roster should not be
modified.
Handsets or Basestation must not be switched off during synchronization
When the Pro Box detects a new Handset it has to determine which locomotive roster to use,
either the one the Pro Box already holds or the roster from the newly detected Handset. In
some cases the Pro Box will do this automatically.
For example, the siding on this layout is set up to be the
Service Track.
Connect siding to Command Station output
Connect main layout to ProBox output
Insulated rail joiners in both rails
to fully separate the Service Track
THE RAIL POLARITY OF THE SECTIONS (LEFT AND
RIGHT HAND RAILS) MUST BE THE SAME OTHERWISE
A SHORT CIRCUIT WILL RESULT WHEN A TRAIN IS RUN
BETWEEN THE TWO SECTIONS
