HO / Sound Value Configuration Variable Defaults files
December 27, 2015, 04:56:40 PM"The CV listings for the Sound Value locomotives that we link to on the SoundTraxx website are accurate and up to date."
Quote Yardmaster http://www.bachmanntrains.com/home-usa/board/index.php/topic,31178.msg230560.html#msg230560
The statement is untrue, based on files available online today, 12/27/2015.
I just spot checked several Configuration Variable Defaults file and depending on locomotive, there are discrepancies between the installed decoder and its Configuration Variable Defaults PDF file.
An example, Bachmann HO EMD DD40AX Sound Value Equipped, CV 51.
