"bent": Even with my own lack of enthusiasm for the PM-42's it's possible to get them to work reasonably well. A friends railroad has basically the same system...
I recently installed some Digitrax BD-4 detectors on my layout and all LED's light momentarily when I advance the throttle quickly (NCE Cab04PR) then back off....

I agree Jerry. I have some pretty big mitts with fat fingers and I can hold and operate my DT400 with mostly one hand and limited use of the other. I also have...
I have been troubleshooting my Loconet, and have everything down to one last issue that I can't seem to figure out. My configuration has a DCS200, two DB200...
Hi Phil, If you don't want them send those PM42's to me! I hope there are not in the garbage.VBG Les Halmos Quebec - Canada Have you downloaded and read issue...
You indicate that you route LocoNet to the DS64's but are you powering your DS64's from the track? My track powered DS64's have behaved strangely at power up...
Thanks for the info. The DS64's are individually powered by PS12's, and are not powered by the track. I'll have to check OPSW6, to make sure it is closed. ...

Jim, Can't comment on the PM42's used as auto reversers as I don't use them for this. I do have up to seven PM42's all set up as circuit breakers on our NTRAK...
I had this problem as well. What seemed to work is powering up the DCs100 first, wait a minute or two then power up the DS64. I thought I read this "fix" on...
Hello, I have been unable to set a four digit address in a Digitrax SFX 0416 Sound Decoder. I have tried paged mode and direct mode on the program track and...
I want to set up a reversing loop with 3 sections and have all three tracked by the bdl168. How do hook up the ar1 to achieve the reversing action on the...
To: Jack If the SFX0416 is connected in parallel (red and black DCC power input) you will probably have difficulty programming the address. Try using...
Joe, The AR1 goes before one of the BDL168 sections. All four of the outputs in this section will reverse. If you only use one for the reverse loop, the...
Joe, I just uploaded a picture to the Photo section. Its under the album Autoreverser and the BDL168. It is a wiring diagram (jpg) of the first of my...

Stick, You will get better advice if you tell us what scale you are going to be operating in and how many operators there will be at any given time. Also, do...
I would doubt a locomotive of that vintage has the motor isolated from the frame. You will also need to do a current check on it before installing the DZ125 (1...
Thanks Jeff, I'm going to give that a try. Funny thing, after the last response, I went back and made sure the 2nd DS64 OpSw6 was closed, and then the other...
