[quote user="selector"] <p>To be perfectly honest, and I hope this doesn't invite a flood of anti-Digitrax gloating, I have not been able to get good results with that DT400 prompt. When I press Y+, the loco address adds one to its value, which is anything but intuitive. So, I get around it by (this is with a DB150, recall) pressing enter to get the DB150 to beep and shut down track power. This is automatic, and I have to restore track power with the Y+. Then, with a now silent QSI decoder sitting in front of me, even thought the power is on, I do nothing but re-enter programming, but Ops mode this time, and acquire CV29. I programme 38 to it, and immediately the QSI comes to life with sounds. On the odd chance it is still silent, dialing in its new address and clicking the encoder always, but always, brings it to life. </p><p>I have become distrustful of the enable adress prompt.</p><p>[/quote]</p><p>Hm.</p><p>I will keep the Cv 29 = 38 in mind if there is a problem with the DCS 200.</p><p>Where does the CV 17 and CV 18 come from and why should I think about those?</p>
