Re: The Most Aggravating Layout
With my P2K GP7 units, this is indicative not of DCC problems, but of split

You asked some very good questions. I'm curious as to what Digitrax
told you. They should have answered your questions.
Your problem is reading back the CVs that you are programming in

Re: Difficulting reading back CV's in N-scale locomotives
They didn't say a whole lot, did they?
Their phrase "the decoder must see a load" is partially correct.
Since the decoder is connected to the motor, you can say that the
decoder sees the motor.

Mike,
You have more good questions. Good!
I was afraid you would have no way to put a resistor in your N-scale

As far as what resistance the command station needs to see, the

Re: Lenz LB101 Occupancy Detector and Switches
Yes...But you don't really need those occupancy detectors to control the turnout. All you need is an isulated balloon track loop, an auto-reverser, and a short constant polarity track length
