Worked! Plus, as I was standing at the program track congratulating myself for a successful CV rewriting, I looked down at my feet and there was the Blueline manual on the floor/
I gotta clean that place up!
Thanks very much, Jack. I'll give it a try
I fired up Decoder Pro and came up with these values.
Bell set CV136=0
Horn set CV135=0
And if required:
Horn2 set CV138=0

O.K. Finally found a minute to set this up, and now I cannot find the Blueline manual so would someone please tell me which CVs to turn off (what value?) to silence the horn and bell in the B unit?
Am I the only one that has so many different pieces of the layout project going at the same time that you lose stuff that was in plain sight yesterday?
ARRRRGGGG!!!
I just use the same address, quick and simple.

I was never able to get Blue Line locomotives assigned to an advance consist with an NCE ProCab system without losing the sound, so the only alternative turned out to be assigning the same address to both engines and then turning off the bell and horn on the trailing unit through CV configuration.
I even wrote a couple of e-mails to BLI about the problem when I acquired my first Blue Lines, and they responded with a long list of something around 20 CVs to reprogram, but that didn't work, either.
I just got my BLI F7 A&B units back from the paint shop, and I'm ready to put them to work. Both are powered and have DZ143 PS decoders. I intend to always run them as an A/B set so is there any problem just setting one address (that of the A unit) for each one and going from there?
I realize I'll need to test them individually to see if they speed match at a given setting, but if they do would this work as well as consisting them? If consisting is a better choice would it matter which consisting method should I use? I know there have been some posts about BLI consisting issues, but I didn't see anything that really answered my question.
Thanks
