[quote user="MisterBeasley"] <p>STOP RIGHT THERE! And yes, I meant to shout.</p><p>If you program on the main, remember that you are programming ALL of your locomotives that are on the tracks and receiving the commands. You will set ALL of the addresses unless you remove all the other engines, or put them on dead sidings, etc.</p><p>That's why some DCC systems (like Lenz) won't even let you program an engine address on the main. If you look deep in the manual for the QSI chip, you'll find how to set an address even if that function is disabled for your DCC system.</p><p>[/quote]</p><p>HUH ?</p><p>Must be a quirk of the Lenz system. You can certainly program an address, on the main, with Prodigy Advance and Digitrax Zehpyr systems without endangering other loco's. All that you have to do is select the loco to program (address 3 in this case) and change the address. If you are dumb enough to have more loco's with an address of 3 on the tracks at the same time; yes they will also be changed.</p><p> </p>
