RDS Posted January 29, 2015 Author Share Posted January 29, 2015 What about in a dummy car for lights?That's it. Thanks. What a great idea, in fact I have just the thing. A Hornby Inter City 125, that I am part way through converting to bi-colour LED lights from the filament type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graskie Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 I had loads of my DCC locos registered with full numbers and/or names on my Elite, RDS, but I was forced to reset the machine to correct a particular problem. It worked for me on that occasion. Like you, having been used to an Elite before RM came along, I was a bit concerned about losing loco data but have since found it no problem at all, and have performed the same procedure a couple of times more recently, now knowing I couldn't lose any more. I programmed each loco to a 4 digit ID which I could work out by just looking at a loco and I'm not at all bothered about losing the Elite data, because I can still work things directly from that quite easily, as I know you like doing, preferring that option to RM at times. I believe it's a question of biting the bullet and moving on. Old practices can eventually tie you up more than you realise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDS Posted January 30, 2015 Author Share Posted January 30, 2015 Hi GraskieI can honestly say that after reading the advice in your post, I would have reset my Elite. However, the 'suspect' chip is now on standby to be fixed into my 125 Dummy car and a replacement has been fitted to the Loco, body back on. Thanks anyway.
