can program old V1 R8247 hornby decoders with the new Yamorc upgrade from DR5000

Hi,

?

From the manual:

?

Programming Method The R8247 Point and Accessory Decoder (PAD) version 2 is an enhanced release over the original R8247 (released in 2006.) This new version supports programmable pulse duration and number of pulses per port. Also, support for Channel grouping has been added allowing multiple point control etc from a single address. Finally, there are now 3 address modes, further expanding the flexibility of the unit. The R8247 is configured with 4 addressable Channels. Each Channel has two ports. There are 3 physical connections per Channel. The 3 connections per Channel are labelled +, – and C. These are only used to differentiate the connections they do not represent polarities. Note that the actual pulsed or continuous voltage appearing at either of the + or – outputs is actually negative (12V) going relative the C (common) connection. These three connections make up the two Ports of the Channel. All C connections are connected together internally. There is a track signal input/power connection at one end of the unit. It is recommended that this is connected to the main power bus of the layout or accessory bus if separate. The connection is not Polarity sensitive. Programming is carried out via the “track input signal” connection (see above) DIRECT mode programming is recommended. i.e.. “Service Mode” via the programming output of your controller. If required Paged mode and Register Mode are supported. Note: Register mode is not recommended due to limitation of CV support. Programming via “OPERATE Mode” (On the Main) is also supported. This may be convenient in some instances. However, connecting directly to the Programming output of your Controller for programming (SERVICE MODE) is the recommended programming method. The unit has quite a complex set of features, so using the Programming connection on your controller may be advantageous as it should support READBACK of the CV values. Please refer to the full CV list for more details

As far as I read the manual. The YD7001 is capable of programming this decoder.
