I received the other day 2 of Märklin semaphore model 70412 (hp0/hp1/hp2). They can be used with Motorola, DCC and mfx. I don´t believe that the ECoS can handle mfx accessories so it’s either MM or DCC. As it has 3 positions it will use 2 consecutive addresses. I can make the top wing work but not the lower one. I have tried selecting different signals in ECoS but can’t get it to work. Can it be that the cs2/cs3 does something that is not really DCC standard? Have anyone in the forum been using these signals? Many thanks in advance! Best regards, Peder

Then I remembered reading about some other issue in the forum where the solution was to turn off Railcom. And now it works! Although I like the Railcom feature, I guess I just have to wait for an ESU fix.... Peder
