Hi @wiggy1, yes just a bit. I haven't managed to get it to run nicely under DCC yet. Some details here (page 5 onwards): More here: With no information other than the basic descriptions of CVs from ESU I'm finding it a bit like trying to find a needle in a haystack (with the added bonus that every time you move one piece of straw the haystack rearranges itself). OK, Where did you get the ESU v5 'L' decoder from is the first question? I'm assuming it came with the sound pre loaded? Have you contacted them to say you are having an issue? Lets take it from there and see where we go. Wiggy. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My main aims were to get earlier acceleration and deceleration along with preserving the ability to coast. I can't remember off hand cv53 does? Voltage. I'm assuming you have done an autotune otherwise I doubt that you would have changed that. Doing an autotune reduces that CV setting. Wiggy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume that means the procedure where you you set CV54 to 0 and light the blue touch paper while the Loco runs off and then stops. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiggy1 Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Yes, thats the one. If you are happy with the BPR and everything else then I should leave it as it is. Just as a matter of interest why did you do an autotune? Wiggy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s from Digitrains, pre-loaded with Engineman sound. I have emailed them, but they are closed for the Christmas period so not expecting a reply until next year .

wiggy1 Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 OK, They should be able to sort you out no problem. If you need any further help just send me a PM. Wiggy. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FSB Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 You say your sound system is from DC Kits but whose sound system is loaded? South West Digital's system will not chuff to a halt and will coast when the throttle is turned back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
