e control box is required for operation of this accessory.

For Command Control, the Plug-Expand-Play ground must be connected to the

command base. For example, if an auxiliary power supply was used that the command

base isn't connected to, you wouldn't have command control of the Rocket Launcher.

Note!

Plug-Expand-Play

is revolutionary accessory system simplies the setup and operation of your

favorite accessories. Plug-Expand-Play accessories easily connect to your layout

for power using a standardized 3-pin cable that connects directly to a Plug-

Expand-Play Lock-on track section. ere are separate-sale cables that allow you

to expand your system to meet your needs.

TrainMaster Command Control

Devices equipped with the classic TrainMaster® Command Control system are

controlled by commands from your CAB-1 or CAB-2 Remote Controller. Motion,

basic sounds, and other control actions are all at your ngertips as you walk

around your layout.

Adding smoke fluid to your Rocket Launcher

Before you operate your Rocket Launcher, be sure to add smoke fluid to the smoke unit.

Never operate this accessory without smoke fluid. To add the fluid, squeeze the sides and

lift up the block house as illustrated in Figure 2. Remove the small plug and add 8-10 drops of

smoke fluid. Add several more drops as smoke production decreases.

Never operate this accessory without smoke fluid to avoid damage to the smoke

unit.

Connecting the Plug-Expand-Play controller to the Rocket Launcher

Installing your Rocket Launcher

Set up your controller to operate the Rocket Launcher's gantry crane and begin the

countdown. As illustrated in Figure 3, simply connect the Plug-Expand-Play controller

with the plugs on the wires.

The plugs are “keyed” to fit together only one way.

Place the Rocket Launcher on your layout.

Choose a location that is approximately 16”

x 10”. Next, position the gantry crane on its track

so that the post in the platform is inserted into

the slot at the base of the gantry. Be sure that the

side of the gantry with the rounded openings in

the platform faces the launch pad.

Set up the derrick at the top of the gantry.

Carefully raise the mast until it snaps into place.

It should now be in a vertical position as

illustrated in Figure 5. To lower the mast, gently

bend the mast lock away from the base to pull

the locking pin out, but be careful not to bend

the mast lock excessively. Finally, check that the

winch lines are properly threaded through the

pulleys.

To avoid damaging your mast, do not

raise it beyond its vertical position.

Note!

Note!

1. Turn off track power, and then plug in the LEGACY Base and connect it to the track.

2. Plug your Rocket Launcher into a Plug-Expand-Play Lock-on. If the Lock-on has a

power switch, make sure it is on.

3. Increase track power voltage to full power (no more than 19 volts AC). If a circuit

breaker trips when you turn on the Lionel power supply, make sure the track is free of all metals

that may cause a short circuit.

4. As illustrated in Figure 6, press ENG and 1 (or your selected ENG ID#) to address the

locomotive with your LEGACY CAB-2 Remote Controller.

LEGACY controller operations

Your Rocket Launcher is compatible for operation with the Lionel LEGACY system. It will also

operate on the original Lionel TrainMaster System (TMCC1) and also on the LEGACY Cab-1L /

Base-1L operating system.

Your commands are sent by the Remote Controller to the Command Base, which broadcasts a

radio frequency that is distributed through the outer rails of the track to your accessory. Your

accessory will not respond until it recognizes its unique ID#, so you can operate multiple Command-

equipped accessories on the same track at the same time.

Powering your Rocket Launcher

Your Rocket Launcher is designed to work with either AC or DC power.

AC Power: Use an alternating-current (50-60Hz AC) transformer for Legacy, Command Control,

Bluetooth, or Conventional control. Powering your accessory in excess of 19 volts AC may result in

damage to sensitive electronic components.

DC Power: Use a DC transformer for Plug-Expand-Play control only. Your accessory is NOT

designed to operate with Command Control while using DC power. Powering your accessory in

excess of 19 volts DC may result in damage to sensitive electronic components.

Due to technical dierences, we recommend using CAB1 mode with the Cab2 controller

for optimum Command Control operation. e original Cab1 and Cab1-L also work very

well with this accessory.

Note!

5. After selecting the ENG ID# on the Cab 2 remote, your remote needs to be configured

for TMCC or CAB1 control for the accessory. Select the ID# of your accessory as before,

then press the INFO button on the top right of your CAB-2 remote.

Press the SCROLL button on the top left of the CAB-2 row until the CONTROL tab is selected.

Press the button that corresponds to the TMCC or CAB1 (preferred) Mode selection on the

screen.

6. Press the SCROLL button once more to select the SOUND tab. Press the button that corresponds

to RS5 to enable RailSounds 5 Mode. This will also enable the icons on the keypad for a more

user-friendly experience. Congratulations! You have now configured your CAB-2 remote to run

your accessory in CAB1 (preferred) or TMCC mode. Enjoy all the features your locomotive has to

offer.

7. Press the Start Up key on your LEGACY CAB-2 Remote, shown in Figure 9. Then, let

the countdown begin! Your rocket launcher's sound will start up, and the accessory-specific

touch screen buttons will populate the remote. For more information on operating your accessory

with the LEGACY system, please refer to the LEGACY section of this manual. Additional

information is also found in the LEGACY System Manual, available online at

www.lionel.com.

TrainMaster Command Control (TMCC/Command Control) operations

For operation in the TrainMaster Command Control environment, you need a TrainMaster

Command Base (6-12911) and a CAB-1 Remote Controller (6-12868). Refer to your TMCC

System Manual for complete information.

Your commands are sent by the CAB-1 Remote Controller to the Command Base, which

translates the command into digital code. That code is sent through the outside rails to your

accessory, which will not respond until it recognizes its unique ID#. TrainMaster Command Control

gives you the power to operate multiple Command-equipped accessories on the same layout at the

same time.

1. Turn off track power, and then plug in the Command Base and connect it to the

track.

2. Plug your Rocket Launcher into a Plug-Expand-Play Lock-on. If the lock-on has a

power switch, make sure it is on.

3. Increase track voltage to full power (no more than 19 volts AC). If a circuit breaker trips

when you turn on the Lionel power supply, check to make sure the track is free of all metals that

may cause a short circuit.

4. Press ENG and the programmed ID to address your Rocket Launcher with your

CAB-1 Remote Controller.

5. Let the countdown begin!

For operation in the Command Control environment, you will want to give your Rocket Launcher

a unique ID#. Your accessory will respond to commands associated with its ID# while all other

accessories will disregard these commands. This procedure is not necessary for Plug-Expand-

Play operation.

1. Slide the program run switch on the smoke generator cover to the PROG position.

See Figure 2 on page 4.

2. Plug the launcher into a Plug-Expand-Play lock-on.

3. Connect the Command Base and plug it in.

4. Power up the track.

5. Press ENG on the CAB-1 or CAB-2 remote.

6. Enter the unique ID#. Choose any number from 1 to 98 that has not been assigned

to another locomotive or accessory (ENG).

All Command Control enabled locomotives respond to ENG 99. We recommend that you

reserve ID# 99 as a "universal" ID#.

7. Press SET. The launcher will emit a beep sound.

8. Slide the program run switch back to the RUN position.

The Rocket Launcher's ID# has been set. Be sure to record the new ID# for your

reference.

Assigning your Rocket Launcher a new ID#

Note!

Operating the Rocket Launcher

All systems are “Go” for launch! Complete these final preparations, then start the

countdown.

To prevent damage to the smoke unit, do not operate the Rocket Launcher

without smoke fluid or turn the smoke unit OFF.

Caution!

1. Suspend the rocket from the crane’s magnet and press

the launching mechanism down until it locks as

illustrated in Figure 10.

2. Maneuver the gantry toward the rocket platform using

the GANTRY lever on the PEP controller or by using

the red throttle knob on the CAB1 / CAB1-L or CAB2

controllers. Key 3 and Key 6 of the CAB controllers

also control forward / reverse gantry movement.

3. Once the rocket is in position, stop the gantry

movement by releasing the lever (PEP control)

or by using the red knob, reset (Key 0) or the

DIR change button (CAB controllers). Or

simply wait for the limit switch to stop

movement.

4. Turn the cranks to lower the rocket onto the

launch pad, then move the gantry back. To

identify the cranks, refer to Figure 12.

If the gantry is at the forward limit

switch when a launch is begun, it

will automatically be retracted to

the rear limit switch location.

Crank 1 will raise and lower the magnet.

Crank 2 will raise and lower the boom.

5. Start the countdown by pressing the Launch

button on the PEP controller, or by pressing

and holding Aux1 for more than 3 seconds on

the CAB1, CAB1-L or CAB2 controllers.
