HST43 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Hi there, im having problems running my Hornby HST all wheel drive, I have HM7000 with power bank fitted, running control on Samsung Android 11 version, loco stops all of sudden then continues this happens every couple of minutes, my track has droppers all around the layout so it’s picking up plenty of power and nothing else is running just the one locomotive, do I need to adjust any CV values ? It’s on factory default at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveM6 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Have you loaded the latest version of the sound profile? Version 1 (preloaded profiles) has been significantly improved to v3 or 4 by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HST43 Posted April 14 Author Share Posted April 14 I will check and report back, will this help in the frequently stopping starting ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ntpntpntp Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 That sort of behaviour is seen sometimes when a traditional DCC decoder is being overloaded (too much current drawn by the motor): it cuts power and then resets/restarts after a short period. I'm not sure whether HM7000 decoders behave in this way, or whether this might be a problem with the bluetooth connection? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HST43 Posted April 14 Author Share Posted April 14 The decoder is fitted with Hornby power bank so would have thought it would be still moving along with out sudden stops ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveM6 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 As I alluded to in my first post, v14 profiles had tendency to stall (even with a PB). The updated versions of the profiles have been amended to correct this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

96RAF Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 This is what I see (albeit SD003 is the Valenta engined version). Notice the bluetooth version (0.7.0) which is flagged on yours for update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HST43 Posted April 14 Author Share Posted April 14 Went into Bluetooth control method switch off back on again and it seemed to connected back up showing my passcode, so will give it a test run now see if my original problem is fixed 🙏 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
