Hello,

I just purchased a Walthers Mainline GP9 that has an ESU decoder. I've got DecoderPro version 4.14 but it doesn't seem to be correctly identifying the decoder.?

I saw a thread from April that indicated that definitions are in the priority queue. I was just wondering if they are available in the current test release? I understand if it hasn't happened yet. I'm just checking. Thanks to everyone who has put effort into adding functionality to this system.?

As Marc has already said, I added them with V4.15.6. There were a few minor tweaks with V4.15.7.

Unless I receive any feedback requiring significant corrections, they will be unchanged in V4.16. The more testing with V15.x I get now, the less the likelihood of a problem in V4.16.

I have two of the Walthers GP9's (both GTW #'s), and can confirm what Marc and Dave have said - 4.15.6 works well with them.

I have installed 4.15.7, but have not tried it with them because as of yet I haven't had a need to.

Thanks Dave.

I'll try to upgrade to the latest test version one night this week. I'll let you know if I run into any problems. Thanks again for all you do for JMRI!

With Dave's help,

I used the latest DP test version which has the Essential Sound Decoder on a Scale Trains GEVO.? The instructions for the Scale Trains Decoder has the sound slot for each function of the Essential Sound unit.? I used the sliders for the appropriate function sound slot in DP.? All works well on the program track including the speed table.? The programming on the main was intermittent at best - perhaps the paged mode will work on POM. Direct mode works well on the program track, so I am happy with DP.

As I recall, I do not think Walthers includes the sound slots on their instruction sheet.? I no longer have the Walthers loco with ESU.? Also when I called them they told me to call ESU.? ESU answers questions on Tuesday and Thursday.? They can give the Walthers sound slots for each function.? They confirmed the slots for the Scale Trains Essential Sound.? I was tolsd that Walthers mainline uses the Essential Sound Unit with possible different sound slots
