Hi,

For reasons unknown to me I cannot read and program a Digitrax SFX006 which I want to use in a dummy locomotive (custom sound, no other motordecoder).
I am using JMRI 4.4 with a PR-3 plus PBT-100. Command system is a Digitrax DCS-100.
This setup just read and I reprogrammed an ESU Loksound Select Micro without problems........ (reading decoder type and changing CV's afterwards).
When I connect the SFX006 to the programming track and try to read/find it (paged mode) in the NEW LOCO list I get NO ACKNOLEDGE FROM LOCO 306.
There is a remark about insufficient current draw in the brochure that comes with the soundbug suggesting programming manually, but that excludes 2 and 4 digit adressing.......
Whats my mistake and how can I read/program the soundbug (standalone) using this really great/useful program JMRI???????
All suggstions appreciated! Dirk Blikkendaal

Acknowledgement normally comes from the decoder pulsing the motor. You don't have a motor. The decoder should still program though, just no ACK or reading.

Hi Dirk
Try removing the PBT from the circuit. I have programmed these just fine with a pr3 + ps14. They are best done by themselves without a second decoder being on the track at the same time.
