Here I describe how I resolved some of the nasty issues around what switching a function on, can actually mean... http://cabin-layout.blogspot.com/2018/06/Locomotive-function-handling.html User interface design Copyright Dale Schultz, 2018 If anyone is aware of any decoder function switching that would not be covered by the solution, do let me know!
