benson132 Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 Hello. Has anyone tried this. On My class 37 its "F25" . I need to right and on/off timed busrt to the couplings of about 4-8 seconds. Any help on how to apreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
96RAF Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 I think we have seen this question before and the consensus then was you can only set a loco decoder function to on or off and that you cannot time that event, except by way of a program in Railmaster, using the F25 on - pause - F25 off sequence. More info in the manual page 41-42. Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St1ngr4y Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 If you are using Railmaster, have a look at "DCC Sound Macro Editing " on page 41 of the RM Guide. You might be able to attach a macro such as "P4~F25" to the F25 function in the setup for the loco concerned. Ray Edit: You beat me to it, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benson132 Posted August 8, 2017 Author Share Posted August 8, 2017 Thanks guys - did see that and will tryt and let you know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsclass87 Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 I believe the settings are on the decoder to be adjusted for the timing.you need a decoder which specifically has the ability to control the coupling.then railmaster just has to activate the function controlling the coupling.tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsclass87 Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 please view link video of one of my converted wagons with krois coupling.had this done for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benson132 Posted August 14, 2017 Author Share Posted August 14, 2017 Very good TSclass87. Are you using railmaster - wired my Krois to CV 25 no result? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsclass87 Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 hello benson132,yes I control my couplings with railmaster.I find that the short operation time for the coupling means I have to automate the process.therefore I have created a program to perform the operation see attached video. this is for uncoupling.not created a coupling program yet. https://www.youtube.com/user/tsclass87the short operation time is necessary so as not to burn out the coupling when in use.

tsclass87 Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 here is the program that operated the o8 and the coupling/media/tinymce_upload/490c5b74286174ef2b6d54531c1f182a.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsclass87 Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 as stated the program selects the loco and coupling is controlled via a function on the decoderI have labelled my function as coupler on/off in railmaster and created it as an identified short cut key on the locomotive panel..

Fishmanoz Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Hi benson, just to clarify from your last, you cannot connect to a CV (configuration variable), they are not physical things. You have to connect to a function wire together with the blue common positive wire, then set up that function as tsc describes. On a usual 4-function decoder, that will be the green or the purple wire with the blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
96RAF Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Just to confirm Fishy's words. A TTS decoder uses F25 for this Aux function switched by the green wire, powered by the blue wire. TTS has no purple wire.Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
