Non-mfx ESU LokSound decoders behave like that (if the CV that activates this double-trigger is set). Which loco/decoder do you have this problem with? GFP version has no effect on decoder features ... For locos with ESU LokSound 3.0/3.5 (non-mfx) check bit 7 in CV 49: 7 Function key toggle mode Sound triggered by off2on only 0 Sound triggered by off2on and on2off 128 Make sure bit 7 is off (i. e.

Is it required in Germany to notify the buyer of such a situation? If I could with certainty have the correct serial number build sequence I'd contact the dealer a bit perturbed. my 2¢ worth.

Well that explains that the unit looked branded new. You used it only for an hour.... @GSSR, I don't know what the policy is in the Netherlands, but my recently bought iPad died after a month of usage. I returned it to Apple and the unit I got back (looks brand new) has a lower serial number than the one I originally bought. The repaired/returned issue is of course a hunch because of the low hardware version and serial number. Both devices looked brand new when I got them out of the box. And apparently there are more CS2 users reporting they have a 60214 with hw verison 3.1 and a low serial number.

Joined: 17/09/2006(UTC) Posts: 18,669 Location: New Zealand		Of course saying that mine is a repaired/returned unit is complete speculation, but I find it rather strange that new units being sold are in the 14xxx serial no range, but units in the 3xxx range are included in starter sets, and with lower hardware versions. This of course is not necessarily bad as long as the unit operates as it is meant to and features are consistent regardless of the hardware version number. I presume the different hardware numbers refer to slight changes in the electronics used, rather than different features. And, I guess, the serial numbers would have gone back and started from 0001 when the 60214 was released. Edited by user 06 October 2010 04:01:19(UTC)  | Reason: Not specified

Joined: 25/09/2003(UTC) Posts: 2,786 Location: ,		this is electronics :it is produced batchs after batchs. If on a next new batch they modify only the type of only one screw , they have to give a new hardware version number.... About the old Memory I was told by Marklin that there were plenty of different series, (thus : different serie numbers or hardware versions ). About the 6021 this must be probably the same case, which is easy to be verified thanks to this forum...if we want. Sometimes they modify a type of part just because on the industrial market this spare part is no more available, or not more manufactured, for different reasons (sometimes just because the producer merge with another one, etc...) About some kinds of electronical items , that's the reason why sometimes they give you a brand new item instead of repairing yours....they offer an exchange not to make you a pleasant gift, just because the exact small spare part doesn't exist anymore....and the new one cannot be fitted, or ....or....(several different reasons).

If they are you would think they would have the sense to at least get the batch numbers etc up to date. I have a 60213 now a couple of years old but I presume with the software updates it does the same as a 60214. If they are selling old repaired models in starter sets this should be made clear. Reconditioned goods in the UK are marked as such and sold cheaper. dave

I was just surprised to see a unit with a low serial number and earlier hardware version in the starter set, and was wondering what the reason for that was.

How can you tell? It would be very hard to tell a brand new unit from a repaired one , specially if it is in new wrapping etc.

In the mean time they are also working on completing the help files. (despite mentioned in the change log the GFP updates only to 1.28 at the moment)

Joined: 26/03/2006(UTC) Posts: 1,421 Location: Brisbane, QLD		I managed to update my CS2 over Tha Interwebs last night -- eventually! Background: I have a small home network on Optus cable, with a Motorola Surfboard SB5100 Cable Modem, and a Netgear RP614 router doing DHCP servise. Everything works well. This time (as before), I just connected the network cable and started the CS2. I clicked on "Update". There was some downloading (with a few red squares in amongst the yellow), followed by 3/4 of the "updating flash" (or whatever...) Then "Update failed" This happened several more times. I was puzzled, since last time it was completely problem-free. After a rush of blood to the head, I checked the CS2's IP address: 192.168.1.10 (or .somethingelse, 192.168.1.x, anyway) Odd, since the router restricts DHCP addresses to 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.0.49 -- the router is 192.168.0.50 There is no choice over the 192.168.0.x range, other than the .x value. Hmmmm, the CS2 had "Automatic" checked for the IP address. The CS2 was not listed on the router's "Attached Devices" list, either. While the CS2 could talk to the internet, for some reason this conflict was causing the update to fail, I think. I manually set the CS2's IP address to 192.168.0.10, et voila!, it worked!!! (Also, the CS2 now appeared on the router's "Attached Devices" list.) So, a tip -- if the CS2 connects, but the update fails, check the IP address of the CS2 versus what your router thinks it should have. I'm not quite sure what happened there (i.e. why it didn't successfullyt update the first times) -- perhaps a network-guru can explain that.
		Cheers, Damon
