Pin Layouts are fairly standard, if i understand your question correctly. That being said here is the pin layout on all the decoders i have seen. Pin 1 and 5 are your Motor Pins(orange and Gray). Pins 4 and 8 are for the track power (red and black). pins 3 Usually blue is your common. Pins 2 is Headlight Pin 5 is rear light . Green usually handles secondary lighting. ie Ditchlights, etc.

Hope this helps.

I just looked through all my Digitrax documentation, as well as the Big Book of DCC. Nothing is listed showing the pinout you're requesting.

It's possible that they haven't published any information, other than internal documents for the PR1.

Someone would have to disassemble their unit to get the pin numbers you request.

I assume you're intention is to bulid your own. Sorry I can't help, but good luck.
