I, for one, am glad there is nothing in the summer items for me... thankfully. As I really need to focus on other things and will be glad to get my back order list from the dealer down to a handful of items or zero if I can manage.
I almost had a heart attack of "oh no now I have to get that certainly...." when i saw the thumbnail with the yellow RAILab train... whew, its for Z scale. Bullet dodged. |

Hello guys,
I have a question regarding the new decoder 60996. Has anybody succeeded programming a sound into it? I understand i need the stick 60971 and the board 60970. I already have the stick and successfully used it to program 21 pin decoders. German manuals are not that easy to comprehend. I saw a youtube video, where they connected the board 60970 to the Marklin control station via the "track" port. I imagine this p0ort feeds the board with power. However, i dont have a CS, I use multimaus. When i use the stick 60971 i just plug it to the PC USB-a and then plug the decoder in it and thats it. Where do i need to connect this "track" from the board 60970 if i dont have the Marklin Control Station?
Thank you in advance!

It comes preloaded with diesel sound! A ealer or someone with a decoeder programming tool and web sound files can update it. Or, you can buy a blamk sound decoder.

Thank you in advance! I believe what you are seeking is described in this post:

Thank you. Perhaps i missed it in your post, but what power supply i need to get? 12v? If i dont find a power supply can i just plug it directly to the Roco z21 instead of the track?

I believe that any DC power supply around 18-19v should work. when you switch polarity the other LED lights up and it seems to work fine but haven't tested programming.

thanks. It is very unfortunate that the stick doesnt have a 22 pin adaptor. I dont need all that bizmos the board offers. I just want to write some sound...

you could also try to manually wire up that decoder to the wire input on the 60971 plate. (green with 4 screw terminals).

There are only 4 holes and I have 22 pins. Thats too advanced for me, I guess..

Thats too advanced for me, I guess.. it should be fairly straightforward, only a few cables are needed as described in the manual, and if you have eg a loose PluX22 decoder plate it should be possible. note that I have not used this way myself but others here on the forum have used it. so I can not guarantee that it will work. you could also try to call Marklin service to make sure it will work, before you try it.
