Thank you -I am trying to update the films - it is amazing how they can start looking tatty in just 3 years. I am working to improve my filming technique and realise I am far from Broadcast quality - I was laughing at BBC4 with James May - 4 cameramen, a sound guy and another 1 or two technicians to produce a 30 film about stripping and re-building a guitar. In total there were 24 Professionals listed in the credits. I'm in the wrong game!
Lol...I know...bbc have money to burn I have worked for them in the past.. look at my 1st vids they look so rubbish. . Your vids have much improved in the last year. And the demo track speaks for itself. ..
I have a Lenz DCC 'silver' decoder that is head and shoulders above other leading makes. Lenz has introduced a new updated v2 decoder that is a pure delight to use, the power comes on like cream, the sheer controllability especially in a steam loco.
it is an older version of the ESU test rig - They are useful if you are handling a lot of decoders as you can check functionality without relying on a stripped down loco. I have a newer version at the shop £38.95 as of 6/1/2019. Cheers Chris
You can allocate a solenoid uncoupler to an auxiliary output and programme the duration of operation - I have to admit that I have not had access to a reliable user fitted coupler to test this out reliably or convincingly so forgive me for not going into depth on this
@@digitalcareline Thanks for your reply. I have found that F1 causes the loco to shuffle forwards and then back to release the coupling. I presume it is also possible to map an output as you describe.
Function mapping is controlled by CV33-47 for F0-F12. The Lenz Standard has 4 Auxiliary outputs A = White wire , B = Yellow, C = Green, Solder pad = D Page 37 has a table to show what values you use to allocate outputs to function numbers
One of the best decoders I think....I've installed probably over 30 v1s on my stock..
nice vid.

What mode is the DCC test rig you used to demonstrate the confidence of the 4th function?

I believe there is also an uncoupling function. Does anybody know how to use it?
