* Filter valid settings are 1 to 8. The filter settings are used to help prevent dirty track from affecting
loco operation by rejecting commands that do not repeat for the selected count within a short period
of time. For example, if the loco is on speed step 20 and the user sets speed step 30, the default filter
setting of 5 requires five speed step 30 commands to change to speed step 30. Normally commands are
repeated often enough in DCC controllers to pass the default filter settings selected.
If your locomotive stops occasionally, increase the filter setting for CV59 and
CV60. If the loco does not respond to all speed commands, decrease the filter set-
ting for CV59 and CV60.
The locomotive supports the CV 19 high order bit for reversing the direction of the locomotive travel.
Normally this bit is used in consisting of diesels, however may be used to reverse any locomotive’s
default direction behavior.
