All module's owners see to it that their modules are placed according to the assembling plan, and are connected mechanically and electrically to its neighbour modules, in order to provide a smooth assembling. Furthermore, they install – as far as intended in the plan – Loconet and, if necessary, booster at their modules; they advise the DCC assistant to inbuilt Loconet-jacks. At last all tracks are cleaned. Contact person for questions is the layout designer.

The DCC assistant checks the Loconet (also, whether all inbuilt Loconet-jacks are connected), installs the DCC center, takes it in service operation, checks the polarity of the booster sections and sees to test runs. If there is enough equipment at hand, it is recommended to install a secondary DCC center including a programming track for test runs and programming of locomotives.

The clock assistant installs the clock-pulse generator and the clocks, connect them, and sees to it that all clocks run synchronously. He adjust the clocks to the start time (information from the timetable creator).

The telephone assistant takes the telephone devices in service operation and distributes telephone directories to all stations.

The timetable creator distributes timetable documents to the station's owners, which are to be installed clearly visible. Furthermore, he ensure that a basic arrangement of cars is made.

The station's owner put freight requests and, if necessary, goods at senders and fiddle yards.

At last a recommendation: The FREMO name tag should be worn from the beginning. It makes communication easier – last but not least with non-members – and serves as a passport.
