CURRENT_GAIN was added in for a current sense option i was trying, and is now obsolete. the one on the Mega will work, it was just an external reset option for when i put my system into an enclosure. external power connects to b+/b-, and m+/m- connects to the track (main or program, two IBT_2 modules needed for both tracks. Correct. ~Travis
Does DCC++ CV write matter the decoders in my loco are old (maybe about 10+ years or so) from Digitrax DN148K and DN145K?
as long as they speak DCC, and still work, i can't see any issues with their age. personally, i have not heard of any significant changes to DCC protocol over the years. (not to say there aren't any though) ~Travis
Hi everbody, now that I finally made it through the really though "secret word" when trying to register I really hope you can help me. I'm having the exact same problem that Texas Tim had. But let me start at the beginning. A few month ago I tried the DCC++ base station as a cheap alternative base for my dad's N scale trains. It worked from the beginning. I got a couple of I think it were Fleischmann 686403 and a couple Doehler & Haass dh05c working like a charm. Softwareside I used JMRI. Now since I got a Massoth eMotion L decoder for one of my g scale trains I took my DCC++ base station wich I have not touched since using the n scale, plugged everything in and started playing. At least I wanted to play... In the beginning I was able to drive the train using the standard decoder address on the ops track. Reading failed on the prog track, I have not tried on ops. I found this post updated my DCC++ base station code and et voilà it worked. Now I found writing any CV fails. Also turning on the lights of my train fails. At this testing stage I'm using a laboratory switching power supply with 24V DC at max 3A. @Texas Tim did you finally get your setup working? Anyone else any idea what the problem could be? EDIT: I'm using an original uno with a china motor shield, but as said above it has worked with other trains. EDIT2: @martin_k maybe you could help, now since your "in" the code What exactly have your modifications done? Sadly I'm not enough into programming to even understand what the pointers do calling the read or write function
