OPC_IMM_PACKET Now this LocoNet command is fully implemented so that e.g. JMRI the so called Signal mast aspects can be sent to so called Extended Accessory Decoders.

Well... That OPC_IMM_PACKET is a generic command in LocoNet land to send any DCC packet to the rails. So also DCCext... It enables a.o. the DIY software like JMRI so send DCCext aspect packets through LocoNet.?

But... all other software does not !. So YaMoRC implemented it natively together with Roco in V8.1.9. So the DCCext aspects could be sent via all available protocols. Not only with the OPC_IMM_PACKET Swiss-LocoNet-Knife ?

Roco uses DCCext extensively in their Z21 App. But after YaMoRC paved the way for protocols other than Z21, also iTrain, RocRail, WinDigiPet all started supporting DCCext for controlling signals.

The manual (see my previous reference) clearly says, it does.

Sorry, but it does not. Only by the grace of the OPC_IMM_PACKET command being implemented, also DCCext can be sent. A were coincidence.

2 questions to Karst:
1) Does the DR5000 support DCC aspects (aka DCC Ext) or not ?
2) If yes, which version ? The manual says 1.5.1.

@1 DR5000 does NOT support native DCCext, only through the OPC_IMM_PACKET Swiss-LocoNet-Knife.

@2 That manual phrase describes the implementation of OPC_IMM_PACKET and that was from V1.5.1
