Is this a normal function of the DZ125s? I get normal on/off light function with F0 when decoder is reset, but when programming CV 29 to 34, I lose the light function, even when after I check and reset CV49 to 0.

I'll try to provide a more constructive answer. Also, I have never had a bad Digitrax decoder out of the bag and I've bought close to 50 of them. I must be very lucky Anyway, with CV29=34, the main thing you've done ie enable 4 digit addressing (and 128 step throttle). When you do this, you say you lose F0 function control. Does the throttle continue to respond or does the locomotive not move either ? Does F0 not work in either direction or just in one direction ? When you reset it are you changing anything other CV before programming CV29 and then F0 stops working ? If so, what other CVs ? Lastly, what DCC throttle are you using ? To answer your question, no it isn't that difficult but troubleshooting the problem sometimes requires a few questions.
