Jim, Just the opposite way round: First=Low=Right. Second=High=Left. Just as with any number of any numbering system. The lower value digits are on the right...
Thanks Manfred. I always do everything from left to right. This used to screw me up when trying to do consists, because my natural instinct is to put the...
... You may want to get the PL-10W which is a lower current version of the switch motor, designed with the drive abilities of DCC in mind. The standard PL-10...
Peter, No question that the DCC Tester will not agree with an RMS meter because it is measuring peak-to-peak waveform voltage. Why? Because that is exactly ...
please explain to us what is the purpose of this and capabilities. amperage ? Thanks George ... Yahoo! Personals Single? There's someone we'd like you to...
A common approach used in NTRAK setups is to use one loconet jack from the command station to connect to all the boosters (i.e., a "BoosterNet"), and the other...
Another question.....is the "leader" considered consisted as well for the features described? I am not so sure as I was having bucking trouble on uphill moves...
On the UP5 the two front jacks and the side jack are "throttle jacks" and are wired in parallel. Throttle power is taken from the two rear loconet bus jacks...
George, An auto-reversing booster is just a regular booster configured to reverse the phase (i.e., polarity) of it's output when a short is detected rather...

Jeff: Yes it's the same, OPS 34 set to closed. It reads; Allow track to power up to run state, if set to run prior to power up. If you need the manuals the...
Manfred Thanks for your prompt response. Forgot to mention that I am using Universal Consisting and only 4 digit addresses. With that in mind, I don't know...
Folks: A lot of this yea or nay on switch types might have to do with the number of the switch that we're talking about. The smaller the frog the tighter the...
Jack, Do you use different speed step settings for different decoders? In the case of universal consisting all engines should respond the same way. The problem...
My name is Ron Fabean i am new to Dcc my question is we are running Dcc and would like to no if we can run a train without a decorder on the same layout. If we...
The simple answer is "yes" ... but it's likely that most here would advise not to do so except for testing or other unusual circumstances. To run a DC engine...
To: Ron The process of running a DC locomotive on a DCC system is not profound. Bring the command station up to a 'Run' state where you have track power ...
Why are you to only place a single DC engine on a DCC layout?? I have mu'ed two or three like engines, just like one would do with regular DC and have had no...
Ron, You probably have more than one problem. Let me ask some questions here: 1. Are you using Digitrax or another system? What model & throttle? 2. Have...
I really don't understand why the documents have to make it so confusing. Why can't they just put up a table that lists the various settings (in both decimal...
