Hello Guys
I can't get the M84 to work with the CS3, I saw the Model Train Fun video where he explains that there is a bug in the CS3.
Can anyone help me solve this problem?
Thanks in advance if anyone can give me some links to solve the problem

I haven't seen that video, but he has had a solution in every video I've seen before. I only have M-83 decoders. Update your CS 3 to the latest software and check the dip switch setting on the m 84. Read the instructions for it. You can select mfx, or dcc. One setting offers more addresses. In DCC you have to manually install the m 84.

Not truth! You can set DCC protocol in the m84 and use mfx read out by register in the CS3. Set dip switch first with choiced adress before you let CS3 do the work.

This is my problem and I don't know how to solve it, I have done all the attempts that "Model Train Fan" recommended. All useless, perhaps not being an IT technician I miss some steps and am not able to upload the CVs. Thank you so much to whoever can resolve this

I can see what the problem is.
When you did choice adress via dip-switch and start mfx register m84 did you set "keep it adress" first?
You must do this first before you click "ok".

I recommend you first reset m84 or delete m84 from the CS3 before you start all over again.

Can you check in the set up at CS3 and see after if you have DCC protocol enable?
