Title: Berkshire
Post by: punawele on July 11, 2015, 07:30:36 PM
My new Bachmann Berkshire is showing all 255's when on the programming track.
What CV do I use for the factory reset?

Set CV8 to a value of 8.

If your locomotive has factory installed sound then,

Resetting the sound decoder CVs to their factory default value is a two-step procedure.

   1)  Program CV 8 to 8 (can use either Service Mode or Operations Mode programming)
   2)  Cycle power to the decoder by turning power to the track off and back on

After about six-seconds upon restoring power the headlight and backup light will blink simultaneously 16 times indicating that the CVs were successfully reset. However, if sound or lights come on immediately upon restoring power, the decoder did not successfully reset. Repeat the two-step procedure.

Realize for most DCC systems when in Service Mode (using programming track), there is only power to track for the moment the DCC command is sent.
