. Digitrax recommends using the P
G
, or Paged mode for program-
ming all Digitrax decoders when using service mode on the pro-
gramming track. If you are using non-Digitrax decoders you may
need to change to a different mode if they are not capable of Paged
mode.
6. To program a 2 digit address, use the R Throttle knob to dial in the
address or use the keypad to enter the address and press the ENTER
Key
to program the decoder. Note, when programming a 2 digit
address, the decoder automatically enables 2 digit addressing.
7. To program a 4 digit address, simply enter it on the keypad or use the
DT400’s Throttle Knobs to dial in the 4 digit address you want to
program. Use the L Throttle to dial up 1000s & 100s and the R
Throttle to dial up 10s & 1s. Press the ENTER Key
to program
the decoder.
8. When the ENTER Key
is pressed, the throttle will beep and dis-
play Ad2=0wr or Ad4=0wr followed by a blinking square during
programming. If you programmed a 2 digit address, you can proceed
to step 13 to program other CVs or you can exit programming mode
and run trains.
9. If you are programming a 4 digit address, there is one more step: the
throttle will display Ad4on?=y. This is prompting you to set CV29
to a value of decimal 038 or hex x26 which will enable the 4 digit
address that you just programmed in 128 speed steps with analog
mode conversion on. Press the Y + Key
to enable the 4 digit
address and automatically set CV29 to the decimal value of 038.
10. The display will show the 4 digit address that you just programmed
and enabled. If you want to continue programming additional CVs,
see the next section. Press the EXIT Key
to quit programming
mode and return to normal operations.
11. If your command station is a DB150 and you are using any method
other than Operation mode for programming, you will need to turn
track power back on after you complete programming. Press the
PWR Key, then press the Y+ Key, then press the PWR Key to exit
power mode.
