4 digit addressing
Posted by bwchaney on Saturday, January 31, 2009 4:59 PM

I have quite a few proto 2000 diesels I want to address with their engine numbers.  Evidenrly there is a formula  around to figure out the variables to be able to do this.  Does anyone have a link to the formula.  Quantum engineering or sum such.  Thanks in advance  Bwchaney

what dcc system are you using? some older systems don't support 4 digit addressing. new systems do it automatically. a quantum engineering degree is not required.
