Programming CV's on DCC

UPDATE : after programming a CV the power does NOT need to be cycled.

Hey guys, this video is to help all of you out there who need a little help with programming on DCC systems. In this video i go over changing a CV digit to change the functioning of a dcc decoder and the locomotive that is equipped with the dcc decoder. I use the digitrax Zephyr DCS50 command station with no other accessories other than the power pack it came with. In the video I make it easy to understand how to change the CV using the dcc system. If you have another dcc system such as NCE then I do not know exactly how to help you. In the video I use an ho scale broadway limited blue line steam 2-8-2 mikado with a digitrax decoder along with the already equipped sound system. If you have any questions for me, and you HAVE the digitrax system, please drop me a link and i will see what i can do. If you have the information on what CV changes what function, i will try to help. If you do not have the zephyr i may not be able to help you, but i will try. The buttons i used are the PROG button, to select the operations, or ops mode of programming on the main track. The other buttons are the switch/ CV button, the CV-RD, and the CV-WR, these buttons read and/or write the cv values into the decoder and then show you what the current value is.

Thanks for watching and please email me with any questions, i am still learning this so i cannot guarentee much help.

remember, if something goes wrong, reset the value of CV8, to a value of 8, it will restore ALL Settings to the way they were from the factory, and you can try again.
