Hi all,
I am having a problem with two of my 'DCC On Board' Bachmann loco's. I know these are limited function decoders but they are not being deceted by my system when I try to reprogram them. I wanted to change the address of one of them to run them together but I keep getting the no decoder detected message. I check other locos with other decoders and no problem. I know the decoders are in there, they took the address I programmed the first time and function fine off of those. But now I can't seem to change anything or even get a readback. I am using a Digitrax Zepher and have tried page, phys, ops all to no avail. Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Jim
Workaround required for CV read and programming a non-sound Bachmann decoder using a Digitrax Zephyr.
Workaround --- Place a 1000 Ohm, ΒΌ Watt resistor across the programming track. Remove the resistor after you finish programming the Bachmann decoder.
Thanks Hunt, I will try that. Only question on that is that I was able to program the address in the first time with no problem. I will give it a try though.
