    Setting up first engine with decoder and Digitrax DCS52

    I have a N scale Amtrak P42 engine, DCS52 controller and DN163K0a decoder. My DCS52 is connected to a small oval. I confirmed the engine would run with its DC card in it on address 0000. I have installed a DN163K0a decoder in the P42. When I put it on the separate programming track, the DCS52...

    First DCC controller, first engine and first decoder for engine

    I am planning on getting the Digitrax Zephyr Express starter set. I want to get the Kato Amtrak P42 starter set - Kato 106-6285 for my first train. Last but definitely not least, I am looking at a decoder for the P42 in that starter set. I found the "N DCC Decoder, Kato MP36PH 6-Function 1A"...

    An Arduino can be used as a combined function- plus servo decoder. This has a price tag under €5,- (including a fast opto-coupler). Thanks to the people behind mynabay who made available the code for decoding the DCC commands. I added the software to control the outputs and the servos...

    Need help Installing decoder in proto (walters) GP38-2

    Being new to DCC I'm seeking some advice. I have two proto (walthers) GP38-2's #920-75008. Both run excellent and are DCC ready but there do not appear to be drop in decoders available for them. The only ones I can find that are suggested are the digitrax dz143 or the dz125. Both of these...
