DCC Select Problem

[Devyn Gamble]

Hello,

I have the select controller and I am trying to program a locomotive, I do the normal procedure and the red light flashes 2 times and then the locomotive jumps forward and then won’t move. Has anyone else had the same problem?

Not enough information provided, more detail is required.

.

What is the firmware revision of the Select? (shows as a two digit number between 11 and 16 that briefly appears on screen during the power on self test.)

.

What decoder......brand and model?

.

Are you using a separate dedicated track piece for 'programming' that is temporarily attached to the Select 'Track Output'?

.

If not, and you are using the main layout for programming your loco, are you removing ALL other devices that are equipped with a decoder from the layout. This includes any 'Accessory Decoders' that might be installed for point operation.

.

What DCC address are you trying to configure....is it in the range 01 to 59?

(Loco DCC Addresses outside this restricted range will not work on a Select)

.
