Correct thanks for the reminder Use +12 Volts to power the DCCOD via the ODMB. If attaching a load to the output transistor and also attaching the output to...
... It was not the problem. I have several DCCOD up and running. I have a powersuply that can deliver 3, 6, 9 and 12 volt and it was set to 9 volt for what...
If you are using a common rail approach, like I did with my OD then there is a question. When I went to DCC, I did a lot of research on this problem. Digitrax,...
Since I came to the party too late to get the handbook's previous edition and I can't get a new one, I'm a tad baffled as to the correct connections for the...
Your assumptions are all correct. The 5 volts applies to the device voltage that you "MUST" use to power a device "IF" you are going to operate that device,...
DCCOD was covered in May 2000 Model Railroader, the information you find in that article is the only information out about it right now. There is no 5V+...

Hi there The card is designed to be pluged into the OD motherboard. The mother board has ground, DCC voltage connection (depends on scale used), and 5+ volt...
... As an alternative, consider the NCE BD-20. One has been installed on a TTX PS-REV controlled reversing track on Tehachapi for several years, and has...
All: Thanks to all who offered ideas on this one. Someone pointed out (off-list) that the problem may be the bridge rectifiers I was using were too slow for...

Thanks, that makes it all very clear! I appreciate it. Now to start hooking up wires. Jim ... to power a ... LED ... SUSIC node ... to "ONLY" an ... voltage ...
Just my opinion: IMHO the quick-fix auto-reverse schemes now common to DCC systems are less than ideal for a number of reasons, already discussed to death, so...
Title says it all. I only have one DCCOD hooked up covering a PS-REV controlled reverse loop, but the little critter sees the locomotive every time. And...

Jim, Congrats on getting it all going. I too have just recently gotten running with my SMINI. I however had a bit of a problem with something I accidently ...
... Thanks. Your signals may well be re-created here. I'm having to re-learn BASIC after about 25 years, so I understand completely. I keep trying to use...
Gentlemen, et al., I've been doing a little reading. I'd like to try t o use the block detectors I have, BD-1 from Circuitron. That have two transistors on the...
Jim, You can use the DCCOD on a ODMB and PS-REV along with other PS-1 etc... The trick is that you need to cut the center trace on the ODMB. This will...
I like it! That beats double sided foam tape, which is what I have right now as a temporary expedient. My ODMB will become a 3 section board today. Thanks! ...
Simple question, simple answer - on a computer. What I'm curious about is where do you (looking for more good ideas here) actually kick back and write masses...
I am using old computers for train control and code writing. I don't think they are readily connectable. I agree with you and have set up another old computer...
