i have just installed a mrc sound decoder in one of my locomotives all
cv's run fine, sound is good however when i try to stop the locomotive
using the emergancy stop key it does not respond.using the throttle to
reduce the speed to zero works fine . any suggesstion in correcting
this problem would be helpful. my system is digitrax super empire
builder with a dp150 command station and dt400 throttle. other decoders
whether digitrax or mrc installed in other engines work just fine.

thank

Peter,

Check the manual. I am pretty sure that you have to hold the
emergency stop key for about 6 seconds. I never considered this very
useful as my train has surely collided with another train or wrecked
by then! If I need to do an emergency stop on my Digitrax system I do
a power off instead.
