tractor_37260 Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 One for the legoman perhaps The new Hornby Sound fitted Class 60 005 Transrail "Skiddaw" according to the decoder manual is fitted with a Loksound V4.3 decoder. What's different to a V4.0 version ? TIA Ken Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Mick Bonwick Posted November 5, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 5, 2015 I'm sure you've checked it, too, but ESUs website mentions nothing newer than V4.0. I wonder if this might be another result of Hornby's lackadaisical approach to proof reading. I could be barking. Up the wrong tree. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep could well be just an error on Hornby's behalf - sure the legoman will know about any revision though if there is indeed one The Lokprorg reads it as a V4.0 ?? and with old decoder firmware hhmm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RhBBob Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 On the ESU website 4.3.'X' refers to earlier versions of the software for the V4.0 The latest software update 4.4.20 is now available for download, according to my LokSound programmer. Could Hornby have simply confused the two ? My supplier in Germany still shows LokSound V4.0 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoingUnderground Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 The latest firmware for the LS, and LP, is 4.4.9217 according to the LokProgrammer Release Notes. ESU still call the LS V4.0 Is it possible that V4.3 is a bespoke version made specially for Hornby like the bespoke Selects with UK sounds for Bachmann?

tractor_37260 Posted November 5, 2015 Author Share Posted November 5, 2015 Latest version of Lokprogrammer is 4.4.20 The firmware update suggested for the decoder in question is 4/14/1927 AFAIK Hornby use SWD sound files, but set up to Hornby's specification, Bachmann likewise.
