Hello

Next problem occured.
A train n° 3657 digital adress 10 can be found in the database of the Central Station.
When put on the programming track it won't function.

If I put the same train (3657) on a track with a mobile station it is functioning normally.

What is the problem with the Central station?

Also I would like to bye some 2 hand trains with the same digital encoder butt they wont drive either.

I hope somebody can help.

Hi!

Make sure that red (B) and brown (0) are wired correctly. Such old locos won't run if wires are swapped.

3657 has dip switches and cannot program on the program track.
If this loco stand in the CS2 data base,you should scroll after it and accept it.
If you can´t,use program sequence in CS2 and check after if dip switch is correct as adress 10.

Newer locos with DIP switches work if wires are swapped, old locos do not work. Or do you have other 36xx locos with DIP switches that work?

Hello Gents

Thank you for your reply.

When you look at the maual yo see the 2screws on the connector to the CS.
From ther you put the red wire on de right side and the brown on the left with the connctorscrews on top.

You can program a certan amount of trains without any problem until you get one that cant be done.

I checked the manual again and it mentioned dat the red wire must go to the right and the brown to the left.
Right but with the connectorscrews to the BOTTOM.

My train 3657 did function without any problem.
So did the other trains.

Thanks again and Happy New Year and many miles on the tracks.
