Title: New Dynamis, old basic layout, new loco, not working.
Post by: vttrainguy on March 27, 2013, 08:33:09 PM
OK, what am I doing wrong ? I have a brand new On30 Heisler which runs perfectly on analog  DC. A simple oval of track, no blocks or loops,  but two Atlas code 83 turnouts.
Just got a brand new Dynamis starter kit, hooked it up (2 wires) per the instructions, and NOTHING !
What am I missing ??

does this heisler have a decoder installed? if not, it will sit and hum when dcc is applied to the motor.

to run dcc, you must have a decoder.

The Heisler has a decoder. Check the batteries in the Dynamis handheld. If this doesn't help you may want to call our service department (ask for Rodney).
