tj, Couple of quick basic questions on this. Is the booster set to Nscale? Did you check the stall current on the engine before decoder install? I think this...
Is there an error in the DB150 manual at page 107, section 5? It says select MODE KEY and shows a button with MODE written below it. I dont have a button on my...
Pete, I believe the manual you are reading probably is written for a DT-300 throttle. My DT-400 manual (dated 11/01) on page 55 (section 16.0) discusses Sw ...
Peter, It's a misprint if you have the Empire Builder manual with DT400 throttle printed on the cover like me. These Directions are for the DT100, DT300. ...
I have been continuing my tests of advanced consisting and it appears to me that CV21 and CV22 must apply only to FX3 decoders. I have tested DH163s and they...

I have now tried everything thats been suggested by the good people of DCCUK and the Digitrax Group, even big D themselves. I have gone through the option...
Following my last posting I thought again "what haven't I tried ?". I set the DPDT switch on my programming track to TRACK instead of PROG and went trough the...
... In most DPDT switches, the direction the switch handle is thrown points to the set of contacts that is NOT live! I imagine that the switch continues below...
Peter, I may have missed some of this tread. However, there are a lot of the DN121 CV's that you can't use. I didn't care for them and won't even sell them...
Could someone please send me the web address of the manufacturer that is making the new speed detectors that were shown at the recent train meet. I forgot to...
Hi all, Attempting my first decoder install. My guinea pig, er loco, is a Lifelike GP-18. First what Digitrax decoder is recommended for this engine? I did not...
Pete, It may be that you have a defective DPDT switch or a loose wire on one of the terminals. Bad DPDT switches on Programming tracks have been reported on...
To: Peter DEGNAN I have not been following your message thread so I am not cognisant of the details of your problem. Have you tried/tested the decoder in a...
Has anyone put a ZTC410 in a Bachmann Class 37 yet. I put mine in and it runs OK but no lights. Do I have to programme any CV's to get the lights on? I thought...
Russell, You are correct, consist function control is new to the FX3 series of decoders. Earlier decoders do not address functions in consist mode. It's been...
Peter, I realize that you've probably gone to bed (and you deserve a rest after all this trouble ! ... joggle. The other CV's likewise. Okay- there is a...
Can someone tell me what phone connector end is used on DS54 cables? I would like to make my own cables but have been unable to locate these plugs. Chuck...
To: Chuck Conner I do not know the 'actual manufacturer number' but the connector is a 'four conductor handset plug'. These plugs are available at Radio...
Job, What kind of features do you want and how much work do you a want to do? If your looking for something simple, take a look at the DH163L0. This is a plug...
Pete, Some silly questions... Did you plug it in the right way? Did you turn on F0? Are you running with the right number of speed steps (usually 28/128)? Phil...
It depends if it's an old or new GP18. The DH163L0 will work in a new GP18, but the old ones were not set up for any plug n play decoder. Those have to be...
Hello all, Sorry about English. 1. What is your opinion what will exactly and precise happened, with any Digitrax DCC hardware (at IC level) peace, if RailCom...
I have a new DH163D that developed a dead short in it. I will be sending it back to Digitrax, but I was wondering if anyone has seen this problem. I had it...
Cris Try a decoder reset per the manual, program an 8 into CV 08, I used the Page mode on the program track, don't know if that makes a difference or not. Just...
This question has already been posted but no one has responded as of yet, how did you program a 4 digit address into CV01? This goes out to all the people who...
I recently picked up a MRC DCC Synchro Sound 750 at the Springfield show and I really enjoy it. However i am getting all the sounds to work except for the...
