Large / 2-4-2 Lynn wiring diagram ?
May 04, 2018, 11:18:34 AM
Maybe I'm just not seeing it but is there one posted some place? Not crucial but nice to have.

I'm doing an Airwire conversion on my Lynn next since the shay endded up so well.

I installed a DCC/Sound decoder in a 3 truck shay. Everything works well operationally and sound wise. The installation itself seems fine.

In track power the smoke/firebox and lights work fine. In DCC mode they are all off. I already checked every document from Bachman/Tsunami and CVP Airwire I can find and do not see an answer.

What functions (fx's) or CVs control these items? They must be simply turned off.

Large / 3 Truck Shay to wireless (dead rail)
February 19, 2018, 04:47:47 PM
I have a 3 truck shay. The goal is dead rail with Airwire and having sound.

I have an available DG583S decoder and bought a Bachman "OEM" Soundtraxx card for this shay. I plan to use an Airwire Convrtr-60 with what ever I end up doing.

My question is, is the Bachman Soundtraxx card just for sound? I see left and right rail and motor connection points. But also a six pin connector on the other side of the card I have no info about the six pin plug. Can this card be used as a DCC decoder or is it just for sound and the six pin plug is specifically for a plugin to Bachman decoder. If there is a Bachman specific decoder can I buy one? I don't see it listed on the parts site but should look again I guess.

I'm trying to figure out from this list of stuff what to put together into a solution. ???
