How do I dim the headlight on a Heisler loco. I can't see any reference to headlight dimming on the program sheet.....Peter

Hunt

The decoder factory installed in the On30 Heisler does not support directional dim.

Assuming related CVs are at their factory default value. You can manually toggle the headlight effect between bright and dim by pressing Function 9 (F9) by programming,
CV39 = 128
CV49 = 129

This will have no effect on the Backup light

Don't want to use F9, which Function would you prefer? There is a restriction on which CVs support Dim.

If the above does not work, what are you using to program CVs?

Thanks Hunt, will give that a try. I'm using an Intellibox II for programming.
