Can I program a sound decoder prior to installation? If so how?
I use JMRI decoder pro.
Thank you for the help
Yes you can. Make or buy a decoder tester rig. I made one years ago with a 8 pin connector and 9 pin connector and a can motor. The real fine tuning is on the layout though.
Couple companies sell the tester I last knew.

If you ever fall over in public, pick yourself up and say “sorry it’s been a while since I inhabited a body.” And just walk away.
Thanks for the answer. I want to program the sound decoder not test it. Anyway since posting this thread I finally found other threads that do answer my question about how to get it done.
