I have a Digitrax Zephyr. Today I was running a train with a consist of three Kato SD 40 units. I noticed that the train had slowed. I then took a closer look and noticed that one unit had slowed dramatically and the another had stopped completely. Whan I tried to MU the consist again, they would not. I then tried to reset the factory default cv to eight but they would not reset. I then checked other cv's and the zephyr would not read them or they would read 255 on most all cv's. The other unit running in the lead with the same type of decoder (DH163KO) was not effected and runs fine. I had extra decoders and installed them and again it would read cv's but they were all at 255 nor could I reset them. Later, I was running a consist of Proto SD 60's and again one of the units stopped completely. However, I was able to MU the consist again and was able to read all cv's and continue running. I have had this system for about eight months and I have never had this problem before. Does anyone have any idea what may have happended?
