Depends on which MTH model you have. The newest models with the DCS/DCC decoders work fine on Decoder Pro. The older P3 models do not. With an older P3 model you can program the long address on the programming track all other CV¡¯s can sometimes be programmed on the main. Each incarnation of the P3 decoder has different issues when using Decoder pro. The last MTH loco I bought was the DM&IR Yellowstone which will program fine on Decoder Pro providing you change the selector switch from DCS to DCC before you put it on powered track. If you attempt to change the switch after it just gets confused and doesn¡¯t know what it is. With any P3 diesel or steam loco I rip out the DCS stuff and replace them with my decoder of choice.

Subject: [jmriusers] MTH Proto Sound / Decoder Pro issues?
Has anyone experienced any problems programming a MTH proto sound 3 locomotive using Decoder Pro?
The PROTO DCC DECODER doesn't want to cooperate with Decoder Pro. Maybe it's just me, but I can't seem to adjust any cv's or settings?
Is this a known issue, or am I just lucky...LOL!
Thanks
