model-trains Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 (edited) Hi guys I am scratching my head at present with an issue that cropped up earlier today. I have been adding and programming Cobalt Digital IP Point Motors to the layout. Earlier today the ones fitted and set up were working OK, I have added and programmed a few more but now 'none' work from iTrain, I checked all wiring to make sure there were no issues there, all was OK, and there were no short circuits. Finally I went back into DR5000 control centre, to the part where I program the point motors, if I click on the red/green buttons here the points change,but nothing from the iTrain layout??? I am grateful for any help or suggestions. Thank you in advance Edited October 21, 2019 by model-trains Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WIMorrison Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Just being silly but did you have your DR5000 connected iTrain? then check that the DR5000 was switched on (press green button) I know it’s Mickey Mouse but you wouldn’t be the first person not to realise that the connection has dropped and they are merrily playing with iTrain and the layout isn’t responding. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
model-trains Posted October 21, 2019 Author Share Posted October 21, 2019 (edited) Hi Iain I don't know whether it is Mickey Mouse or Pluto but I do know you are spot on, Thank you. I am kicking myself, Ouch! That dam button, I have fallen for that before so should know, trouble is instinct says, it is dead check wiring , check short circuit, etc. Thanks again for your help. Glad I am not the first to fall for this, it is also reassuring I probably won't be the last.
