Thomas,
I have done the tests you recommended. On the programming track,
ID reads 1477, CV19 reads 0, CV29 reads 34
Read Basic Sheet shows:
Long (two byte) address
Active Address = 1477
Primary Address = 3
Loco Direction = Normal
Speed steps = 28/128 speed step format (recommended)
Power source conversion = NMRA Digital only
User ID#1 = 0, User ID#2 = 0, Manufacturer ID = 99, Version = 0
Everything seemed correct, but I couldn't control the loco with JMRI throttles. Could with EasyDCC.
Changed the address to short, 03.
Did Write sheet changes
Read Basic Sheet showed the changes were made successfully, all the rest was unchanged.
Couldn't control the loco with JMRI throttles. Could with EasyDCC throttles as address 03.
Made a log file of some JMRI to EasyDCC commands, with a list of what I did on the throttle. I saved the file, but couldn't remember how to get it from my RPi VPN connection on my laptop to the laptop's hard drive, so I can print it, analyze it at my leisure, or post it to the group. Tomorrow, I hope to do those things.
Marc,
I didn't try resetting the decoder back to defaults. I wouldn't expect it to matter, but will try to do that tomorrow.
Thank you both for your suggestions!
