Locked Re: decoder id and naming confusions

Michael,

Thanks. I don't see a DN140 in the DecoderPro set at this point.

For reference, can you point me to where on the Digitrax site this is all
spelled out?

Robin

The DN-146A program wise is the same as a DN-140. The DN-142 has
transponding and back emf that the 146 and 140 do not have. Program wise
the DN-144K, 145K,146A,147A & 148K are like a DN-140. While the DN-149K2,
141K2 and 141E2 are like a DN-142. The -163 decoders are another set of
CVs
to be programmed.

Programming wise the Lenz/Atlas LE-062 and LE-063 are the same.
