NCE Cab warning
Posted by C&O Fan on Thursday, August 27, 2009 9:01 AM

This is copied from the NCE web site.

 Cab Address 49

 We have recently discovered that Cab04 or Cab05 Radio Cabs when set to address 49 will cause a system hang-up. Avoid this address.

Although I don't have NCE radio myself, that's still good info to have.  Thanks, Terry! Smile

Time...It marches on...without ever turning around to see if anyone is even keeping in step.

That warning has been in effect for a couple of years now.  I had the bad luck to make one of my cabs address 49 and after spending a lot of time on the NCE forum, the warning was issued.  There is also a procab address that shouldn't be used, can't tell you what because I am in the office, not the railroad room, but NCE issued a warning on it also.  Tony had the same warning on his website for some time, don't know if it is still there.
