Dear Stan,
The decoder is built into the circuit board. It is dual mode, so the loco will run on analog power.
Have fun!

My problem is that decoder pro is not seeing the decorder to program it. Any ideas.

Thanks Stan

Using Decoder Pro with a Digitrax Zephyr?
Then a workaround is required to program a non-sound Bachmann decoder using a Digitrax Zephyr.

Workaround ---  Place a 1000 Ohm resistor across the programming track. Remove the resistor after you finish programming the Bachmann decoder.
