Hello everybody,

I installed a Uhlenbrock 76200 decoder on my old CE800. Used in AC analog mode it behaves correctly, allowing direction reversal, but there is a small problem.
In order to reverse direction I have to rotate the transformer knob to zero, wait briefly and then push the knob for reversal. If I don't wait (rotating the knob suddenly
below zero) there are the lights flashing, with the motor clearly suffering overvoltage, and no reversal takes place.
I have a 74120 on another locomotive and this does not happen.


Is this peculiar to newer docoders?

Is this decoder meant for analog operation? I have only seen older digital locomotives run without any speed or direction control on analog systems.
