I put a new Digitrax DZ125PS into my new OO scale Bachmann Ivatt 2MT today. I'd tested the locomotive on DC earlier and it ran very smoothly and quietly (very little PWM-induced "buzz."). It runs quite well on DCC also -- except at times the locomotive will not stop. Altho
Date: 09/13/15 17:50 Digitrax DCC Decoder Lighting Question Author: northridgeswitcher Ok > if you want to program the following for a current Digitrax Decoder like a DN163K1C to do the following what should CV 49 and C 50 be set at: When F0 is pressed and locomotive is travel forward front light should be on normal.
A while back there was a set of instructions about clearing the dreaded slot max from a Digitrax command station. I down loaded the instructions and used it successfully at our club layout. I have misplaced those instructions and would like to obtain another copy. As I recall, there was no
At the recent Springfield, MA train show I bumped into a friend who enthused about the DCC decoders from TCS. In his opinion they were the best in the business and preferable to Digitrax ones which he said were prone to failure. Upon returning home I asked my local hobby shop (which is a dealer f
Anyone have any experience or problems using an NCE command station/power supply with Digitrax components such as the PM42 or BDL168's? How about the cab buss / Loconet? (not interested in transponding) Thx
I've been using a Digitrax DT400R throttle during open house at the club this weekend. The throttle seems to work fine except the display is messed up. I'm flying blind with the throttle. The display only has this series of blocks across the middle of the screen, some that pulse, and the left-most
I note in the instruction manual from Digitrax there is a way to use 2 Zephyr complete systems together but the second appears to be connected to a second block.
The main power supply comes from Digitrax's PS2012, with the wiring done as per the diagrams provided (where the positive from the power supply is connected to the + input on both the command station and the booster, whilst the negative goes to the Ground Return. The DCS track outputs go to a PM42, which out issue.
My small Christmas layout consists of an inner and outer loop connected with a Kato double crossover. I bought the DCS52 because it is inexpensive and Digitrax claims that I can run up to 20 locomotives simultaneously. All I want is 2, but I can't even figure that out. I have locomotive A running just fine on the entire layout.
I've seen other reports like this, but Digitrax even this long after releasing these still lacks full documentation about these decoders on their site. Particularly concerning as they seem to be a quite significant change. These are causing problems with programming as well, they reused an ID number from an older decoder which is causing chaos by software that is trying to detect what they are ...
