<p>All good advice above. Let me add one thing -- what kind of DCC system do you have? If it's one that can be connected to a computer, there's a great way to ease the process -- best of all, it's free! You might have to buy or make a cable for the connection, though.</p><p>It's called DecoderPro. You may have seen some references to it in the forums. It's just one part of a whole passel of neat stuff you can do from the JMRI (Java Model Railroad Interface) outfit at: [url]http://jmri.sourceforge.net/[/url].</p><p>I use it with my NCE PowerPro system and an iMac, but it works with various DCC systems and computer operating systems. </p><p>It provides a graphical interface to a raft of different decoders, greatly simplifying the mechanics of setting CVs. It shows sliders, radio buttons, etc. depending on each CV (or bit) for that particular decoder. </p><p>It also keeps a Roster of your engines, complete with <strong>all</strong> of the settings for each decoder. If you should have to reset a decoder (especially a QSI or Tsunami with about a zillion CVs), there's an option to reset them all from the data file on your computer. </p><p>Check it out. </p>
