Sorry, my english is bad, i from Germany

I use a new of this above loco from Factory direct trains. I test analog Loco run, sound Ok. Light Foreward and back ok.



I test DCC Set a new Address Loco run, sound OK Light foreward is dead (the 1,5 Volt Bulp is OK) Light back (LED) is all time on. Only a light Dimm over the DCC Function F0. A reset over the jumper in the Tender to factory default. this not help.

Juergen, First 2 things of the top of my head. Join the Yahoo BLI group and ask this question.

Second check out JMRI (DecoderPro) at the following.

Thanks I use JMRI I found the error This is a new from loco, fresh from the factory and have a bad connection cable in the loco boiler. I have re-soldered. all OK

Don't know the particular decoder, but some decoders give half wave between function output and rail/chassis and full output between fnction output and function ground.

Golly! The first bit of honesty from Greg in ages!

And this retort is taking the high road how? Tsk, tsk, "mate".

A road you have systematically avoided.

-- Ray

You could try to catch up with me - like that would ever happen.

Had you considered answering the gentleman's problem?

Once is not a hard record to beat, Greg. Now smile!

You know, Greg, I was struck by the fact that you had no idea of a correct answer to his question and even began by stating you don't know which makes your reply just utter hogwash and useless. I used those two words to poke fun at you and you turn it into a brawl. You and your mate Dave.

It doesn't make any sense at all to guess at an answer. Expensive equipment is at stake here but you have to belly up to the bar and lower the standards of the entire newsgroup by guessing.

Just for the record, I'm not Greg's "mate", "mate".

It's you and Greg who have the room together here.

And speaking of which, let me make A Modest Proposal:

I happen to own a medium-sized -and pitch-black- basement room.

So how about we throw Haddad and Procter into it, bare nekked, each armed with a razor-sharp machete. Then we plunge the room into utter darknes and give them ten minutes to settle their differences before we flood the room with nerve gas.

I also suggest we start a betting pool: Even money if either survives, a two-to-one payback if neither does, and we pipe the gas in nine minutes early if it sounds as if negotiation might break out.

Anybody see a downside?

If you ain't on topic, go away!

Cost for the gas? Who cleans up?

Good thinking!

(1) A retired Army buddy of mine can probably get us the surplus WMD for free, and (2) there's a large orange grove behind my house that's always in need of fertilizer.

( I already own my own tree-shredder, and any left-overs go to the Fargo home for indigent coyotes.)

Trust me Ray, you'll never top one.

It seems you can't read a complete sentence, Ray. I said I have no experience with his specific decoder. All decoders should work much the same way and as no-one else had attempted an answer I felt my experience might be relevant as I had achieved a similar effect with a different decoder.

I have c25 years of experience with Lenz digital systems.

And there was me thinking you and Ray were partners! ;-)
