Have a DCS100

when trying to program an adddress on a loco on the programming track I get message NoAK

I have tried numerous locos in all the programming modes

I have checked the wiring and is continuous from the multi pin plug on the DCS to the programming track

Does not change anything getting same error message

should I be able to read voltage between program A&B terminals

Is this a new occurrence? Have you been able to read decoders previously? If so, any new physical activity, like track wiring? Did you check continuity from the terminal connector and then just the wire alone? Maybe need a reset of the DCS100?

This is on a Portable club layout. I have never used this programming track Before So I can't say if it has worked in the past. I was tasked with trying to find out why it doesn't work. Yes there is continuity between the terminal block of the command station and the programiming track

Does it use a programming booster like a Soundtraxx PTB100?
