Hi. I thank you first for your interest. Here is the situation. I bought an NCE Switch8 Mk2 from US for it is supposed to drive 8 Tortoise switch machines at the same time using DCC addresses and CV's. Before that I have a ROCO Z21 box. I did what it is written into the NCE Sw8.2 . That is to say: I connected a Tortoise to one o the eight output of the NCE and the Z21 to the NCE track input. Like you know the Z21drives the power and DCC orders to the track in the same time. What I got on the NCE display is that the power in ON but there is no DCC information coming in NCE. I did it several times. The Tortoise motor move to the left but never to the right. The Z21 is said to be NMRA compatible. Where could be the problem ?

Hi. Like I saw you have some experience with NCE Switch8 I would like to take the opportunity to talk about the problem I got while I was connecting for the very first time a NCE Sw8 to ma ROCO Z21. The address display showed me twice the number 1 and then 3 fixed horizontal bars until I shut down the power. Based on the NCE booklet page 6, that means "Decoder has power but is not receiving DCC information". The NCE Sw8 was to connected directly to the Z21 through the two connectors of the Sw8. Any answer from you all will be welcome. Bests regards.

Hi you all. I need some help concerning the setup of a NCE Switch8 Mk2 with the Z21. Is there some who succeed in doing this ? Many thanks.

Hi you all. I am a very new member since now. I am not yet used to your rules. So please, be kind witm me. Anyway, here is my first question about Z21. How to connect Z21 to my PC ? I tried almost everything but the good one. She works fine from my mobile under Android but not yet from my PC. Help me if you can and I'll feel glad !!!!!!! Bonsoir (In french into the text)
