Hi all
With the recent update I seem to be having a problem with loco function mapping. When in edit loco mode and after opening the configuration tab the CS will "read loco decoder" but won't open the "mapping" box. Before, you merely pressed one of the function keys but now you have to press on the three lines in the top right hand corner and choose from the drop down box.
Anyone having the same problem or is it just me?
Kevin.

Hello, I don't do any mapping, not yet, but two other members have suggested either contacting Marklin tech support, or initiating a forced update. Sonething about Marklin releasing the beta version first, then the normal later. I havn't done either. When did you do the update? I did it last Wed.

Hi Kevin, I just did the test with one of my MFX locos 39030 (BR 18.5) Here are the screens from version 2.3.1 (8) - when all parameters are loaded  - when a function key is pressed  - when modifying a logic function  So to answer your question it works on recent locos Yesterday, when working on an older loco 39401 (SNCF CC40108) the parameter screen was totally empty where with my CS2 I could access to all the motor parameters So on older digital locos, the functionality seems to be reduced or my 39401 loco has decoder problems Cheers Jean |

Hi!
I have had the same issue with two locomotives so far after updating to 2.3.1. In both cases I ended up deleting it from the locolist. At least in one of the occasions I had to use the "rediscover missing mfx" on the edit menu to have it register again. When it is back, I have been able to edit the functions.

Hi Guys,
Thanks for your input and suggestions.
I spent a lot of time yesterday trying all sorts of things and I have finally come to the conclusion that with the latest update it is difficult function mapping using POM (Programming On Main)
So I have taken all my digital locos and put them on the test track which has been fairly successful.
There are two decoders that won't map, one is an old mSD retrofit decoder and the other is a recently purchased factory fitted decoder in my 39568 Ce loc. They have all been updated with the latest firmware.
I don't know whether there is an issue with the new update or what, but I used to be able to do mapping on POM before the change.
Thought I would just give this feedback for what its worth.
Kevin

You can try emailing the Marklin Dudes Curtis and Rick who host the digital webinars on YouTube, or service@marklin.de. for explanations or remedy.
