I am trying to add decouplers to the track plan on my CS3. I cannot find an icon for the decoupler. I can only find icons for the Telex couplers. Since these are on the locomotive, I do not believe this will work. Am I missing something? Or, does the CS3 not support decoupling tracks?

With a CS3, there are 2 types of decoupling items
- the HO one Only one solenoid
- the Gauge 1 with 2 solenoids like a point

The insertion method is:
- to select the wrench
- to select modify article list
- to push the + key, this will add a position that can be either a switch, a signal, etc and also TWO HO decouplers
- once you edit this new article, (specifying its address, etc, pushing the key "Misc" on the bottom right of the screen, you may select various possibilities among which the decoupler

The decoupling key on the left in HO, the one on the right is 1 Gauge

For HO, you must select the "side" (Red or Green) because you may have 2 couplers per output pair.
I hope this helps
For fun here are Märklin couplers operated by a CS2 (now a CS3) and Rocrail on my layout

I haven't yet purchased a CS3, but I'm sure I would be wondering the same thing. Thanks for the information Jean!
