zoomer1979 Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 (edited) Time for a self indulgent post, as I'm constantly running my 37027 with different scenarios. Here is my latest. Neil.

Went through each cv as written above and not a lot changed. Certainly no brake function still. Why am I changing cv 31 and 32 multiple times.

Went through each cv as written above and not a lot changed. Certainly no brake function still. Why am I changing cv 31 and 32 multiple times. ESU uses CV31 & 32 as Index CVs, this way they can have many more effective CVs. A succinct explanation can be found here https://ncedcc.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/210815663-Loksound-Indexed-CVs-CV8-151 If the CVs have been changed as indicated then whatever F29 did has now been moved to F2, and vice versa, which is what you asked for. I can't comment on whether this will actually give you the "brake function" you are after though. If you'd like to go back to the original decoder state and you didn't take a copy of the CV values you've changed just let me know. I can look up the original values and let you know what they are.

Oulton TMD Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 On 24/06/2023 at 20:18, 55020 said: There's been mention of the AS sound fitted models not moving off until about speed step 8 when the sound is enabled, at least for the unrefurbished locos. This behaviour is matched by the engine revs not increasing until step 8, which in itself isn't a huge issue but it does mean that it's not possible to start with a crawl. I've been trying to find an easy solution, and the best I can come up with involves amending only one CV. If you change CV124 = 0, then this behaviour is no longer a problem. (Note, to undo the change simply return it to its original value: CV124 = 4) On my model I've also been able to reduce the starting voltage, and therefore have a slower speed step one crawl speed. Simply amend CV2 = 2. (Original value CV2 = 3) I've made a very amatuerish video to demonstrate the difference. Please excuse the 'dining table toy train loop', as I though I might need a roundy roundy for the demo. Steve When I contacted Accurascale about the loco not moving at low speed steps Simon suggested altering the cvs to the same settings that you mentioned. Unfortunately this now means the loco moves before the brake release sounds. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul_sterling Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 (edited) Do those who've received their locos get a dispatch notification?

RMweb Gold McC Posted July 24, 2023 RMweb Gold Share Posted July 24, 2023 Hi Paul Absolutely, you’ll get a dispatch notification when your order is sent with full tracking. We are down to the last few hundred preorders now in date order and should be clear all UK dispatch tomorrow. If any doubt of course contact us.

RMweb Gold Darius43 Posted July 24, 2023 RMweb Gold Share Posted July 24, 2023 (edited) Arrived this morning 😀 Absolutely superb. One minor niggle is that the bogie wheel sand pipes keep dropping off. Solved by unscrewing and removing the undergibbon boxes and re-fixing all four sand pipe fittings with a small dab of superglue before re-fitting the boxes. The Accurathrash sound is amazing as this mediocre video hopefully demonstrates. Cheers Darius Edited July 24, 2023 by Darius43 12 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I right in assuming that it’s date order from full payment? So those who payed a deposit and then the rest at a later date (with the newer partial.ly system) are lower on the list etc? Just trying to work out if I should be worrying or not yet 😅 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just trying to work out if I should be worrying or not yet 😅 Generally it's paid orders, at the point of dispatch, by order number / date of order - but we have 5 pick and pack lines so depending on the pace of the line, the complexity of the orders (1 locos, versus an order with 3, plus crew, plus speakers, etc) sometimes the 'real' dispatch isn't strictly in order, but if you have any doubts at all, our team are standing by and can confirm the order is good, and where it is in the process for you. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold adb968008 Posted July 24, 2023 RMweb Gold Share Posted July 24, 2023 (edited) Ive got another box in the mail today… (for those patiently waiting this is an order number in the 319xx range from June 2022). didnt find a certificate in the box for this one. 37402 is a bit unique… its got different buffer beams at each end. Several have asked whats the difference between 37418 and the DRS 37’s… its here in the front end.. The led tail lights, and jumper socket, theres also mods on the fuel tanks. (Bachmann 37418 on left has not had eth fitted). There is one minor mod if dating the engine outside March 2016 to December 2017.. the radio aerial was removed to just a stub. I will be adding horn socks to replicate above. Edited July 24, 2023 by adb968008 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used @railtec-models 3D printed ones. A little bit of glu’n’glaze on the painted ones to make sure they stick. Easy to remove in the future too. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
