SPEED TABLE CV67-CV94 FOR 28 SPEED STEPS
When CV29’s bit 4 is set to “1” it will use the speed table formed by CV67-
CV94 to control speed (motor voltage). It allows you to setup each speed for
all 28 speed steps. First, program CV29 to 18 for short addresses (1-127) or
program CV29 to 50 for long addresses (128-9999) to enable speed table
control. Then select throttle to 28 speed steps and run your loco at speed step
1. Use program CV on the main to change CV67’s value (1-255) to adjust step
1’s speed. The kick voltage, CV65 is only applied when the speed step
changes from 0 to 1. You should switch between 0 to 1 many times to check
step 1’s speed. When done with CV67, select speed step 2 and program
CV68. CV68’s value must be greater then CV67’s. When done with CV67-
CV94, use read back CV to make sure their values are in increasing order.
Note: When using MRC Prodigy DCC to program addresses it will automatically
disable the speed table (set CV29’s bit 4 to “0”). Programming CV125 to 1 will
also disable the speed table and re-program CV67-CV94 to a default linear
speed setting.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
Whenever the decoder doesn’t work please use the program track to program
CV# 125 with value 1 to restore the decoder to factory settings. This should
bring the decoder to life with address #3. This decoder should perform well
with all DCC systems. The maximum DCC output should be less than 15 V. If
the locomotive does not respond to commands, it may have lost its address.
Please re-program the address and program CV19 to 0 (disable consist). If it
responds slowly, you should clear its momentum by reprogramming CV3 and
CV4 to zero. If step 1’s speed is too high, you should program start voltage,
CV2 to zero. If its top speed is too slow, program top voltage CV5 to 31. You
should also clean the track to improve electrical pickup. Read your DCC
system manual to learn how to program and operate the decoder. For more
information about registers/CVs and their functions, please refer to the NMRA
DCC Standard & Recommended Practices, RP-9.2.2. This is available directly
from the NMRA or their website at www.nmra.org.
