Note: At the time this table was published, Digitrax does not publish a comprehensive list of option switches for the DCS210+. This table may contain errors as there is no validation available.
The user manual only publishes values for OpSw #2, #3, and #40. It refers the user to the Digitrax website for further information.
If an option is labelled reserved, do not change it.

=== Setting an Option Switch ===
This proces can be done using the following methods:
# Throttle
# JMRI
==== Throttle ====
# Set the MODE switch to center OP position. The PWR and PROG LEDs will pulse alternately.
# Connect a LocoNet throttle and select its switch control mode.
# Select the switch (Option Switch) number, then set T/Thrown or C/closed to modify the OPSW as needed.
# Return MODE switch to RUN position when complete
==== JMRI ====
As the DCS210+ features a USB port, it can be connected directly to a computer running JMRI software.
JMRI can configure a command station and offers two methods. Consult the JMRI help pages for details.
