On the command station you can select 14, 28, 128 these are the
speed steps sent to the decoder - not what is set in the decoder.
Using JMRI you get the choice of 14 or 28/128 for the decoders but
no selection for the output. I had a Digitrax DN120 in one of my
narrow gauge locos (#10) If the command station was set to the
default of 128 the decoder would respond with speed only - no
momentum and no speed table. Earlier this year it was upgraded to
a TCS M1. On the Command station a single loco can be set for a
specific speed count so I was able to get round the running of the
200mph narrow gauge loco - I had to remember to set the speed
steps after a reset of the panel.
Something I have not asked - do you run a program booster from
the Easydcc unit such as Power Pax or PTB100? Also check your
panel - on the back near the program terminals there is a resistor
- R7 - it is 10 ohms. If it is black or discoloured replace it.
Now for something unexpected - when testing the various systems -
Using the WiThrottle on my Samsung, through JMRI then through
EasyDCC panel I found I could use up to F18 - where all the Easy
DCC throttles and panel throttles can only go up to F12.

Gerry,
If the number of speed steps set makes a difference, you should
know I have been setting all my decoders to 28 speed steps. Thank
you for all the testing you're doing! I really appreciate it. It's
almost as good as having known good units here I could swap for my
stuff until I find one that fixes the problem. It's quite amazing,
when the distance between us is considered....
