Märklin CS2 and CS3

First tap the "house"; this icon always takes you back to the main screen.

There press Settings > Command station >

From there go to Settings > Command station >

For the CS2/3 to be found on the network, you have to switch its "CAN" option to "Broadcast". If you cannot change that, you have to enter the IP address into the LoDi-Con by hand. In our example we have switched to "Broadcast".

Now select the station that was found, give it a name and confirm with the "green tick".

(Devices shown green in the "Search for command stations" overview are already known to the LoDi-Con.)

The LoDi-Con now connects to the CS2/3.

Every connected command station is now shown at the top left of the display.

A new CS2/3 symbol should now appear at the top left. If that CS2/3 is steady, the connection is up. If it blinks, the LoDi-Con could not reach the CS2/3, or it is trying to establish a connection.

Tapping the top left takes you to the overview of command stations, which also shows whether the connection is active or not. If there are several stations, select the CS2/3 here.

Here you can check whether a connection exists and call up the version number, IP address and UDP port.

The LoDi-Con can import every object set up in your CS2/3. Tap the symbol at the top left that shows the connection to the CS2/3.

This takes you to the command station overview. At the very top you see the field “Database import”.

Tapping the field makes the LoDi-Con transfer the database from the CS2/3 to the LoDi-Con. Depending on the number of locomotives and turnouts this can take a moment.

If you add or read in new locos on the CS2/3, repeat this step. Only the new locomotives or turnouts are transferred.
