I got out my BR44 with MFX decoder to test my Intellibox IR digital set up. I get the first 4 functions, as normal, but nothing beyond that, even though I can toggle the system to do the higher F6-8 and beyond. According to the booklet, the whistle is button 4 on the MS or F5 on a CS. Is there a way to get the whistle funtion to respond with the Intellibox? I know its an enhanced version of the old 6021, which was unable to get to the whistle according to the booklet. Thanks Mike the Aspie

I have no idea if it has 2.0 in it. It's an intellibox IR and not the later model with the larger screen. I read the link, how do I know what the second address is to set the one throttle up for just that engine? Since there are 2 throttle knobs, I can set the one side up for that engine

Ok, I set the second throttle to 255 and that got me control of the whistle and such. I dont quite understand, even if this has the 2.0 software in it or not, how to set 2 addresses at the same time on one throttle. Also, I would have to find the cables and figure out how to upgrade the internal software if it not already 2.0. This digital stuff is very hard for my mind to process and understand on the programming side. One reason I avoided it as long as I have. But I love the sound and I was able to get this Uhlenbrock stuff for a screaming deal as he has had it for a long time with zero interest in it since the MS and CS controlers came out. I am not a touch screen person and need that tactile feel of the buttons, hence I like the set up I have built up. Just have to stumble my way thru getting to work with the MFX decoders. I appreciate the help Tom, I really really do. atleast now I can blow the whistle, even if it ties up the second throttle to do that for now.
