I have a  BACHMANN GE dash 8-40 cw spectrum dcc ready ( BRAND NEW)and a digitrax dz123
i wish to connect them, until now i have removed the two copper caps that covered some of the contacts
I have then 7 holes to be connected from left to right: number 7,6,5,4,2,1,8.

first question is the any capacitor to cut as in sd 45 spectrum

second question: what are the advices for connecting the decoder, what order and special care so that I do not destroy everything
thanks a lot

thanks for fast reply, it appears that i do not see any capacitor on top of the printed circuit as shown on the picture
its number is N860X6-PO2B is it normal
