Has anyone any information on the new update? Have installed and all appears to be working. Had to install it twice as the first time it failed after 4.3% Derekr

Thank you Rob, I just wondered.

Hi all, can anyone tell me the latest version of the HM|DC App please' I have looked in all the information on the Hornby site and searched the Forum but found nothing. The version I have is "v1.0 (B57r4)" and I do not recall it ever updating. Derek.

Request for Improvement HM6010 Would it be possible to have the point trigger duration and number of times the trigger fires user adjustable. I believe at the moment the trigger times is 100ms and the number of times the trigger fires is 3 per operation. I would like to be able to reduce the trigger time to 20ms and the number of triggers to 1 per operation. Thank you Derekr Moderator’s Note: My understanding of the default 6010 set up is a double pulse of 500mS duration. R8247 the DCC equivalent device has a default pulse setting of 100mS. An electronics expert may be able to tell how long it takes to viably discharge the internal CDU of the 6010 module.

I just acquired a HM6010 at last. I like the unit and what it does just a shame about those horrible connectors, what on earth made Hornby use them. I have now tested with a Kato turnout and a three wire to two wire adaptor and yes it works. It would be nice to be able to adjust the points firing time and reduce it to one trigger (use selectable) as the Kato turnouts fire straight away and then audibly click twice. So far I like the HM6K system just a pity about those connectors. Derekr. Moderator’s Note: You may wish to bring your request for altering the pulse time and frequency to Hornby’s attention by submitting it as a ‘suggestion for improvement’ using the sticky post at the top of this forum section. If it is any consolation I find the 6010 module connectors too fiddly.

Thank you Rob and Chris, As yet I do not have the HM6010, just weighing up the pros and cons of buying one. Derek.

Has anyone used the DCC Concepts three wire to two wire adaptors with a HM6010 and if so did they work? I would like to power Kato turnouts if possible. Derek.

Can only find this one now, this is a panel mount socket. https://www.elliottelectronicsupply.com/connectors/dc-plugs-jacks/dc-power-jack-3-0mm-x-6-3mm-mounting-hole-size-437-inch-mates-with-208b-plug.html I will remember to bookmark items in future. Derek.

Have found both a panel mount socket and an in-line one but both are from America. Could be expensive on postage. Derekr.

@96RAF Have you find a source for the sockets for a wiring harness. I have searched and can only find the plugs, they are an odd size. Derek.
