Loksound stall recovery CV issue
Posted by dragenrider on Sunday, May 24, 2009 5:49 PM

Hi, fellow Loksound users!  I have an issue I'd like to resolve.  I've set my v3.5's CVs so that an engine encountering a brief loss of power will recover and continue at the same rate and sound without going through the restart sequence.  However, I've noticed a glitch.  When in a consist, any engine selected by the controller will go into the sound shut down mode as soon as "enter" is pushed.  This creates a problem in switching off lights, changing head of the consist, or adding & dropping engines. 

My CV's are:

124 = 7

130 = 0

133 = 0

136 = 0

139 = 0

148 = 0

151 = 0

190 = 4

193 = 4

What do I need to change to keep the stall recovery, but abolish the issue?

Oh, dear.

 

It's been posted a week and there's no reply.  Disapprove

 Have you tried contacting the makers of the LokSound decoder, Elektronik Solutions Ulm in Germany, and asking them?  They have a web site in English.

No, I haven't tried to contact them.  According to the postings on the Yahoo Loksound group ESU seldom bothers to return emails.  Thanks for the thought, though.
