No, I had not seen that particular video and it has answered all my problems. I can now read the CV values! Just a matter of pressing buttons in the correct order.
I really am most grateful for all the time you have taken to help me.
We can now consider the thread closed and a very merry Christmas to you and all the other helpers.
Yours, Ron.

Hi,
Yes, I have watched many of the videos on that site and found them interesting, but they did not solve my particular problem.
Have a great Christmas.
Ron.

Me again,
Yes, all 3 of your check points are correct. I would do as you have suggested, but therein lies the problem. You say "Read the CV to see if the change has been effected" But I am not able to read the CV value This is the nub of the matter.
i must be very dim, and at 86 years of age I suppose I have some excuse, but you previously said that the menu gives 2 different choices, to read or to programme on the service track. I can not find the read option and clicking "Programme on Service Track" takes me straight to the write option. Looking at page 25 of the manual, I can find no option there to read the CV value. Can you please explain exactly how you get to the read option.
Yours, getting desperate, Ron.

Hello again.
Two things might be relevant. First, I can read the loco`s address on the service track, so I presume that I must be in Read Mode? Second, after the "Programming" shows on the handset, the value that I have put in is shown. Perhaps I am expecting too much to hope that when I go to change a CV I am shown the current value?
Incidentally, I use the"X" button to return to train control. I am not sure how I would do it with the joystick.
I tried to discover what programming mode I was in, but could find no reference in the system menu to mode change.
I would be very interested to hear your comments when you have a spare moment.

Thank you both for your replies. I will try your suggestions and get back to you. The problem is the same with decoders from Bachmann, Hornby and Digitrax.

General Discussion / Dynamis Pro Box problem

I have just added a Pro Box to my Dynamis system, hoping that I would be able to read CVs. Unfortunately this is not happening. I go to "Programme on service track" When CV 0 flashes I scroll to CV 3 and when 3 flashes I press the value button and put in 10 and then accept. "Programming" shows and the loco jerks. I backspace to run the loco and all is well.
if I repeat the process, the value of 0 is shown, not the 10 that I put in. Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong, or is there a fault with my Pro Box.

Thank you very much. Yes, it is a Bachmann. I did not remember that the forum also deals with other makes.
Yours, Ron.
