Thanks for all the responses guys. I've tried the DPDT method and was getting the same results. Could be I wired it wrong though. I downloaded,...
Hello, all. I've got a functioning Arduino/Motorshield combo running JMRI. I am in no way an expert in this, having watched a tutorial on how to...
Just a follow up on this. I contacted ESU and the determined that the decoder was defective. Mailed it out to them and they sent a new replacement...
Rick, Well, things are not great. I reset the decoder per your instructions, did a full read and then tried normal operation. The loco will not...
Thanks Rick. I'll give it a go this evening. An additional question to this. I have the settings saved in my roster entry for the loco in JMRI. Is...
Jake, yes. As stated above. No binding or mechanical malfunction when operating outside the consist.
Thanks for the responses. For resetting the decoder, will this reset to "as delivered values" while preserving the sound files, or does it wipe...
Greetings all. Interesting problem. I've set up a consist using JRMI of 2 locos. Both units run fine on their own and I speed matched them in...
Does the headlight come on on its own or via throttle command? Other outputs? If you are handy with a voltmeter, you can probe the power outputs...
I got this sorted. 2nd Decoder has been received (same sound file loaded) and a basic hook up and run through showed that it was functioning as...
Not a bad idea. But, this is all buttoned up at this point and I'd rather not disassemble it if I don't have to. Lots of tape and putty to get it...
Thanks, Rick Still no go. I've also tried with both Aux1(1) and Aux1(2) (same for aux2 sets) on F5 and no change. So weird. I wonder if it has...
Rick, Ah, the grade crossing setting now makes sense. I'm still very new to programming and have a lot to learn. Thanks! F2 (horn) has grade...
[ATTACH] Rick, Thanks for the quick response. Yes, I've tied them to a function. On their own as well as tied to the headlight F0. Nothing seems...
Good evening all, Newish member here. Love all the contributions from everyone! I've installed an ESU Loksound decoder and have it pretty...
I wanted to touch on this thread a bit. I know it is old but it is still relevant. I've been out of the hobby for about 2 decades. Back in the...
Congrats on entering the 3d print world and on getting the Ender 3 (have one myself). One upgrade you might consider that I didn't see listed is...
Well, I gave the rule 17 setting a try. I'd have to put a volt meter on the circuit to be sure, but with the LEDs there was no appreciable change...
@RBrodzinsky, This is exactly how the decoder is behaving. It just isn't desired behavior from me. :) @carl, It sounds like rule 17 is what I am...
Thanks to the helpful members on this forum, i've got my polarity confusion sorted. Now that I have my lights working when they should, I'd like...
