Thanks Alexander for the diagram .
My problem is mainly with programming however.
Those 8 little micro switches for the loco address!
Also all my 6081 decoders c81 have 2 blue, 2 yellow ,1 red and 1
brown wire. Unlike anything on marklins website . Though I did see
written somewhere that colours may vary!!! additionally I have a 2
rail Marklin Trix and Hag setup .
I presume that the wiring
is 2 blue to motor 2 yellow to lights
and red and brown to loco wheels. Do you think thats right?
when i get a moment I ll put a photo of them in files .Thanks again

Hello everybody,
Here is my latest installation: Uhlenbrock decoder 76500 installed to
the MEHANO Santa Fe engine
http://dcctrain.net/images/Mehano_SF_Marklin.jpg
It is design for Marklin 3 rail system, decoder supports DCC and
Motorola protocol, so happy customer can run it with: Marklin Delta/
DIGITAL, Uhlenbrock and any DCC system + Selectrix too!
Engine made in Slovenia, very easy to work and maintained, it runs
very well, because of GOOD decoder.

Hello,
I'm just curios is this really painful to program Loksound decoder
with 6021 unit, manual for decoder is very clear explain how to do
it. How this is on practice.
I'm using Intellibox, Lenz and ESU programmer to program Loksound
decoders - NO problem, it is fun to do it. I don't have Maklin
command station. I have manual for 6021, there is nothing about this
feature, that you can program decoders on main.

First look and test new LI101:
It works absolutely no problem with my bought computes (laptop and
desktop under XP). Software for LI101 is very friendly and reliable.
Run test layout about 2 hour.
Hooked up laptop using Targus USB to serial adapter it works!
Using set up software it is easy to set different address for
XpressNet and new baud rate.
Changed baud rate didn't see any difference, no delay, no glitches,
nothing, engines and accessory decoders respond real quickly.
It is light and tiny unit easy to connect, setup and use.

supplied computer, wireless HUB and wireless PDA.
Mark,
What compatible decoder are you going to connect to NMRA 8 pin plug?
ESU came with plug, Uhlenbrock - you can make chose to order with
plug or without. Lenz discontinued LE122 for AC motors.
For all my and customers engines HO and 1 gage I'm installing plug it
is very good idea. It is good for warranty too, if Decoder still has
original plug.
ESU soldered green wire F1 to the plug and violet wire is for F2.
I'm usually using decoders with directional lights and only to extra
functions total are 4 outputs.
DCCTRAIN
How should I wire a Märklin compartible decoder to the 8-pin DCC
socket? The wiring of the power, DC permanent motor and F0
(direction dependent light function) are obvious, but how about the
wiring of F1 to F4? I want to make the decoder modular so that the
loco can change decoder and the decoder can be installed to another
loco easily.
Mark
Hello Mark,
I'm not sure I understand you correct. But in theory it supposed to be
clear electrical contact to provide power and signal for the decoder.
Do you have pictures or booster? I don't understand what you are calling
booster.
Thank you,
Alexander

Subject: coating the PCB with lacquer
Hi!
I am using a paper phenol PCB for my model railway booster project
(which has to handle signals at about 36000 baud). I have developed,
etched, drilled and soldered the components onto the board. Then I
sprayed a lacquer clear coat (for automobiles repairs) onto the PCB
(on the track side) as an attempt to prevent oxidation.
I have tested the functions of transistors by using a 9V battery to
pass a voltage of 9V and then -9V to the signal input and the booster
responded correctly by producing voltages at the correct polarity.
This means that all transistors were functioning correctly. However
when I plug the booster to the computer RS232 interface and attempt
to run the Directrain program, the trains fail to respond. When I
use the program to stop the trains (In digital control, a continuous
negative voltage signals all trains on the track to stop), the
booster DID respond correctly by producing a constant negative
voltage! (I measured it on the track with a digital multimeter)
Therefore do you think the lacquer clearcoat have produced the
distortion in the signal so that it cannot be picked up by the train
decoders? If this is the case, how can I fix this problem? Can I
fix this problem by using two-part thinner to strip the lacquer
clearcoat away from the booster?

USED Lenz Set-01 (3 years old) with newer software version 3.5
included LZ100 Command station, LV101 Power station, LH100 Keypad
Dispatchers Throttle, manuals. Original box. Everything is in perfect
shape. For more information about this set click here Set-01.Please
email dcctrain@... with questions.
We are pleased to announce the production of the most sophisticated
decoders we have ever produced.
The LE1035W and LE1035MP - MSRP $39.95 each - shipping to dealers
mid
June 2003
These decoders are designed for the discriminating modeler who wants
the
very best in low speed operation. It is absolutely ideal for any
locomotive used in switching operations.
We had three design goals.
1) Produce the absolutely best motor control possible.
2) Eliminate the confusion of setup so that it works out of the
package
with minimal programming required.
3) Find a solution for ease of use in switching and automatic
stopping.
The features in the LE1035 start with high frequency/ high
resolution back
EMF motor control for extremely silent, smooth and easy to use
control.
To this we added two features designed to greatly facilitate
switching
operations.
The first is a low gear setting which allows the decoder to have two
speed
tables, one for slow speed switching the other for main line
operation.
This is enabled through use of F3 (user settable from F1 to F8)
The second is a precision stop control. This allows the user to
program an
absolute stopping distance. This stopping distance is independent of
load
or speed. This allows the user to have a locomotive stop precisely
on a
uncoupling ramp or if a stopping module is used to stop the
locomotive
precisely in front of a red signal or at a station. Precision stop
control
is enabled in low gear operation when ever the speed step is set to
zero
and can be disabled using F4 (user settable from F1 to F8)
Other features
4 functions
Directional or independent headlights that can be dimmed.
Starting speed and max speed adjustment.
Support for advanced consisting
All forms of programming supported.
The LE1035 will shortly be submitted to the NMRA for formal C&I
testing.
---------
USP to be released in late August.
Model railroad control is about to experience a revolution in
reliability
of operation!!!
DCC with USP is almost here!!!.
Last week we demonstrated our first USP decoder at the NER regional
convention. This mystifying decoder equipped locomotive was able to
go over
dirty track and also track covered with plastic tape without
hesitation.
And all the time the DCC commands were received and the locomotive
was
under total control, demonstrated by controlling lights, speed while
the
locomotive was right over the plastic tape!
USP decoders utilize technology protected by us and European patents
and
will initially be available exclusively through Digital plus by Lenz
dealers. USP decoders will be totally compatible with all NMRA DCC
systems
in the market.
The first decoder in this series will be a high amperage decoder
intended
for S, O and Large Scale. More information will be released in
Toronto.
--------------------------------
