I have upgraded to the latest version of the Sw, v. 4.1, and I have discovered that when on the programming track the throttles are ineffective. This makes testing the settings of any decoder a nightmare as you have to exit programming mode test the loco and if it doesn't behave as expected you have to put the loco on the programming track and fiddle with it again. This process has to be repeated until you are happy with the settings. The GOOD news is that ESU says that this is a bug and it will be fixed in the next release. So you'll have to wait for this useful function to work again !!! Am now waiting for it to be available Happy New Year !!!! Marco

Marco Grief, how did they let that bug get through That is something rather basic to test when upgrading the software !!!
