I didn't mention that I have an Empire Builder II. After reading
Robin Beckers reply to the last message, I wonder if I'm screwed
at this point? This simple project is getting out of hand. (G)
I originally started to build the LocoBuffer and get the other
pieces together, because I understood the DecoderPro would
give me the R/W capability. There's no fool like an old fool still
applies, I guess. If I understand correctly, this means that I have
to shelve the LocoBuffer, KeySpan etc. or buy a Chief Controller.
Is that correct?
Thanks for the help.
At least, if I have to shelve this stuff, maybe the iMac will start
accessing the Internet again. (VBG)

Mike,

The EB (DB150) does not provide readback of CVs and does not support a
separate programming track. I think that currently DecoderPro supports
Digitrax via the programming track of the Chief (DCS100). Don't think
there is anything you can do via LocoNet to get a DB150 to read CVs, but
maybe Bob will add a "write only" option to DecoderPro.

Group,
I think Bob did some experiments with a DB150 (EB) and found that he
could write but as we know the EB has no programming track so no read back
capability. This is a type of system problem and would effect any type of
computer programming.

I have a DB150 hooked up to my computer via a LocoBuffer. Before I
found out that the DB150 can't read CVs I thought it wasn't working,
however I am able to write CVs. Sure is much easier than putting
them in by hand with my UT2!
