What cv's do I program, and with what numerals (not HEX), to setup 2 sets of ditch lights for forward and reverse? I want to leave FOF for forward lights and FOR for reverse lights, but I want to use the remaining functions for forward and reverse ditch lights, or atleast get the forward ones functioning correctly, as to stay on constant when F0 is active, but to flash when F2 is depressed on the keypad.[Techsupport] Using f1 and f2 pads for front - CV51=106, CV52=107, CV63=64; f3 and f4 for rear, CV113=122, CV114=123.
3) my dcc system outputs 13.5 volts for track power, is this going to cause any problems for the decoder? And to use the Athearn 1.5v bulbs, I'm guessing I need to use 866 ohm resistors or higher, is this correct?[Techsupport] That voltage is within DCC standards. I would start with a 470 or so ohm 1/4 watt resistor.
I would normally try and do this myself, but the instructions listed on the site for this decoder, isnt real clear for the cv settings for the light effects.
Would I program cv51 @ 106 for right ditch light, and cv52 @ 107 for left ditch light, and cv62 @ 196 for high keep alive, and cv 63 @ 64 for the 5 second delay? If those are correct, then what would I put in cv63 to make it flash for longer holdover after releasing F2 on the keypad?[Techsupport] Something above 64.
