d nd error on Digitrax Zephyr

I've never had trouble programming before but this has me stumped. I connected one wire to Programming A to the rail of a separate piece of track. I connected the other wire (Programming B) to the other rail. I have alligator clips soldiered on. It's all a great connection. So I put the loco on the track, Press the Program key, Press the PAGE key, press the AD2 key, enter the loco number I want to change and press the CV-RD key and then get the d nd error time and time again. I checked the connections a million times. I used different locos. What am I doing wrong here????
 
KB362 Atlas DCC Decoder Programming Problem ("d nd") on DCS 50

from digitrax web site....

There are decoders now present in the market that do not draw enough current for the programming track to reliably detect that they are present, hence the error report of "d-nd".

All you have to do is to use a 1K 0hm 1/4 watt resistor across Prog A and Prog B outputs during the program process and it will program the Lenz/Atlas decoders.



take care ,,,, ken
