TTE/GP7/30 PLUG "N" PLAY DECODER INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS.

1) Provide or use a suitable insulating material between locomotive frame and loco socket printed circuits.

2) Bulbs must be changed or lighting circuit modified to use lights with DCC decoder. Change bulbs to 12-16 volt, 30 ma type. To use existing bulbs install / solder 150 Ohm, ¼ watt resistor in series with either bulb’s lead.

3) Decoder is best mounted so that decoder pins face down and loco socket faces up. Locate socket circuit board forward so 4 screw holes on loco frame fall between plastic connectors on back of socket board.
