I've been using my new DT402D for two or three months now.  I believe it is malfunctioning, although I spent some time trying lots of key punching and following the manual very carefully THE PROBLEM: Every time I enter and run a consist with the throttle, then try to leave it in place and select other locos, I get the SLOTMAX prompt indicating that the throttle address memory is full and no other selctions can be made.  However this is just not true.  I can dispatch any loco addresses I find in the recall of memory (and there is never more than a couple) AND either dispatch the consist or undo it and dispatch the indvidual addresses, but I still get the SLOTMAX message AND the throttle is unusable because I cannot enter any more loco addresses. THE FIX: I have to go over to the Zephyr and steal the consist loco addresses, or just the addresses of the already dispatched consist locos and that seems to reset the DT402D.  But that doesn't seem to make sense. Has anyone else had this problem? OTHERWISE, please tell me there is an unwritten clear memory command on the DT402 as there is with the Zephyr (which is to clear switch key 36).  Why would Digitrax not provide a simple one-step clear address memory command? Anyway, thanks for any tips.
