It will read and write any and all cv's, and you can use the "ops mode" cab control. It will not read other decoder types.
Okay, as promised. I did hear back from Piko, and they suggested trying a different brand of DCC system to program. Since I am not near anyone...
I did hear back from Piko, and they provided me with the volume cv settings, their defaults, and their operating ranges. I programmed them in...
I have an A/B pair of FTs, and I set both addresses to 126, which is their road number. I did modify the lighting settings for the B unit, and...
