Bear in mind that I installs 'em, but what goes on inside that little red packet remains a mystery to me...
I've got a bunch of Digitrax decoders installed, and some consist just fine, and others, well... here's my tale:
When I run a locomotive by itself, I try to set the speed tables to reach a comfortable speed at around 40 (out of a possible 126). This is the speed where it looks fine while watching the train in person, but probably looks a little fast on a video. (you know the speed I'm talking about.)
Well, when I go to consist it to another engine that meets the same speed table, they end up running like they're only getting 1/3 of the voltage they should be getting.
I use advanced consisting, where the MU address is set in CV19. Is there something going on with BEMF or some other cluster of letters and numbers that I should adjust for? Anyone else out there experiencing this?
Or do I have to go back to wearing a copper arm band when I'm around electronics?
