I have installed a tsunami decoder on to my On30 Bachman shay and video taped the whole thing.

I have not found anything like this anyplace so I decided to share this with everyone so that you to can instal a decoder as well.

I hope that you find this helpful.

I am not a pro so please don't berate me for not having a professional video. At least I have tried. If anyone wants to give me a proper camcorder I will be happy to make better videos.

As it is I am using a camera in video mode and it is ok but not great.
Go to my main page and scroll down to the date "Saturday May 16th 2009" for the links to it.

Anyhow, for those who want this help it is here for you.

Enjoy

I am currently uploading some videos of how I make stub switches.
I hope someone finds them useful
Of course they can be found from the link on my main site as usual.

I finally figured out how to instal the decoder on my own BUT now I can not change the address from the default 03. I emailed digitrax and they said [and I quote]: "You cannot change the address of a Tsunami with the DCS100/200 without Soundtraxx's Program booster".
So I am screwed here. And soundtrax says NOTHING about needing extra anything on their website in order to change the addresses on thier decoders.

Unless someone knows what buttons to press on the superchief to change the address I will have a 600 dollar dud on my hands. If I had known it was gonna be this difficult to get answers and help from soundtraxx and digitrax and bachmann I never would have gone into DCC. This so annoying I don't know what to say.
So  any help would be appreciated thanks.

I have made some scale newspapers that you can get from my website if you wish.

It is my hope to collect scale pictures for all of us to use in one central place. All credit will be given to who ever gives it.
Email me with your contributions.
This will work if we work together guys.
Thanks head of time for your help.

I have looked at digitrax, soundtrax, bachmann and over 7 forums and many other places.

I would like to know if ANYONE has actually installed a micro tsunami decoder into a 2 truck shay and if so do you have pictures of how you did it along with the speaker install? Thank you.

Please don't list the so called install manual from soundtrax as it is to basic to be of any use. Also i did email them and they said they don't know.

Thanks for any help you can give to me

My way of giving back is to give free everything, tutorials, videos etc. Enjoy
