Bob and Bob,
I've also noticed/read some other items. Certain CV's take effect on
next power up (like the infamous DZ121), page 7 programming tips.
CV8 will do a factory reset so might be good to add that function. This
also only happens on next power up.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now on to this morning testing. Probably happened yesterday but it was
so hot (triple digit) I wasn't thinking. When I bring up the AD4 pane and
do a read it seems fine, but I can't then change the address. I must exit
and then come back up to change the address and then the LED's flash and the
address changes to 0. i.e. any attempted write seems to reset the address
to 0.
Am I have cockpit problems?
Have you remade the decoder index?<
'tools'--'create decoder index' Yes I did that.
I use the individual CV programmer as it always works to get back to a
starting point (an address) again! Using the individual CV programmer to
enter numbers and using the program to read back the address results in
correct card numbers.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Even though Paged and Register Mode are set to "no", I've noticed that
they are still selectable on the bottom of the programming screen.<
And they do lockup the programmer as I have forgotten to change it a few
times. Testing the new file Bob sent and nothing seems to have changed.
The red LED also flashes during read which is not supposed to happen
according to CVP. They say it only works when programming on the main
(curious).

>I've found that Digitrax systems will operate switches numbered
greater than 999.<
This might depend on how we define 999. I checked with Don C. on the
Digitrax site a few months ago and he confirmed 999. BUT it may not have to
do with the actual addresses but how many are stored and this is a question
I have asked on the Digitrax list.

Changing CV7 recognition to 62 allowed it to pick up my AD4.

error in the decoder-config.dtd file<
I don't seem to have this problem with the new file!
