Locked Very early decoder

Jon Miller
开云体育??? I have a very very early decoder I have lost the instructions to.? ? The only ID I have is the sticker on the chip.? It reads; MELEC TL2054 ??? It may or may not be a sound decoder so maybe someone could tell me what they think it is.? Also I tried to read the pertinent CVs using JMRI and couldn't. -- Jon Miller For me time stopped in 1941 Digitrax Chief/Zephyr systems, SPROG, JMRI User NMRA Life member #2623 Member SFRH&MS |

mode.? CV7=19 and CV8=147 (Umelec Ing. Buero)!? Are they even in
business anymore? -- Jon Miller For me time stopped in 1941 Digitrax Chief/Zephyr systems, SPROG, JMRI User NMRA Life member #2623 Member SFRH&MS |

Would have been helpfull to know it was Umelec and not Melec. CV8 says it's a Umelec Ing. Buero, however the sticker on the chip says MELEC TL2054.? So I have no idea what to say other than they forgot to put the U on the sticker! ??? I will try it again on JMRI using the 2054
setting. -- Jon Miller For me time stopped in 1941 Digitrax Chief/Zephyr systems, SPROG, JMRI User NMRA Life member #2623 Member SFRH&MS |

The Umelec ATL2054? is in DecoderPro ??? OK was able to read the CVs, I think.? I'm
using SPROG and DP.? However after reading CVs (motor was active
then) and then using the throttle I got no response from the
motor or forward/reverse lights (green, forward light stuck
on).? There is also an indication in the pane for the 2054 that
it's a sound decoder.? Is it?? There are solder pads on the
decoder that would indicate that additional wires need to be
added by the purchaser.? And maybe additional circuits. -- Jon Miller For me time stopped in 1941 Digitrax Chief/Zephyr systems, SPROG, JMRI User NMRA Life member #2623 Member SFRH&MS |

Unless you enjoy this, I would not put time on it. ???? Not going but would give it to
someone, who has the time, for the cost of postage. -- Jon Miller For me time stopped in 1941 Digitrax Chief/Zephyr systems, SPROG, JMRI User NMRA Life member #2623 Member SFRH&MS |
