I tried yesterday to install Sprog onto the new layout i am building & encountered a major stubling block straight up. It will not (or cannot) recognise the...
... Do you mean a) Cannot see the decoder at all, cannot do anything. Establish this by opening a throttle window in decoder pro and trying to drive the loco....
Nigel,thanks for your suggestions,in the next couple of days i will attempt to find a way forward.If I may ,as I encounter further problems ( & I will) i may...
Roger, If the error is "No loco detected" rather than "Timeout talking to command station" then that indicates the software is installed OK and the SPROG is...
It's possible to set the maximum output current by sending "I 789" to the SPROG (in this case to 789mA). And issuing "I" results in getting some numbers back,...
Robert, It's now a lot easier to do this through the SPROG console on the SPROG menu in DecoderPro. Can I ask what you want to achieve? I don't want to raise...
Certainty I'm currently writing my own VB app to control my railway (lots of reasons why but basically the project is a good amalgamation of several hobbies of...
Having troubles getting DecoderPro to recognize an older Soundtraxx DSD-150 Shay sound decoder I just installed. Also will not recognize an older Digitrax...
New to a Sprog II and all worked fine last week. Last night had some issues 'reading' having DecoderPro find what decoder was installed. Tonight, looks like I...
Robert, In that case the I command is probably better for you. The value is 8 bits and represents the LSB of the A/D converter that senses the output current....
... Andrew, Using the supplied 110 volt, 1.25amp "wall-wart" which came with it from Bill at the BBM Group here in the US. To add to this, last week, I was...
Small update, Sprog works, on different PC. I installed the system on my laptop tonight and was successful in accessing the Sprog, reading the 'firmware...
Frolin, ? Just a quick thought, do you have automatica updates turned on and has any updates been put on the XP SP3 machine since you installed DP.? I know...
... Pete, Matter of fact I think there may have been updates applies to Windows XP applied since it worked. But do have the auto-update turned OFF at present....
Regret to say, more failures tonight on the Sprog... All seems ok on the couple times I used On30 and HO engines with factory OEM decoders. But three locos...
Has anyone else setup and regularly used the Sprog II and DecoderPro, with the larger G gauge equipment? If so, any tips or things you had to do to make things...
... It sounds like you're getting inconsistent results back from reading CV7 and CV8. You can confirm that in a more simple manner using the "Single CV ...
... Hi Frolin, I thought that the 100 ohm resistor was used to limit the inrush current that can happen with some sound decoders and thus should be in series ...
Frolin, I'm a bit behind with e-mails, so just catching up. Does your PDA use a true USB interface, or does it assign a virtual COM port like the SPROG...
Hello I bought the SPROG II and the asociated UK power supply from the website. I have a straight length of track connected to my sprog and that is connected...
Actually I have made 3 key changes and it seems to now work. 1) I have swapped to a laptop that runs XP SP3 2) Selected the LokPilot Silent BEMF since this...
... A few observations: The issues you have are with JMRI (software), not Sprog (hardware and driver files). The Sprog appears to be working correctly. JMRI...
Hello I think that the chosen decoder has improved the situation greatly as running on XP SP3 strangely. However I think some of the issue could possibly have...
I've had my SPROG II for a little over a year. Last weekend while at the Greenford, OH narrow gauge show it quit on me while I was showing a friend what a...
Hi Frank, Bill Chown distributes SPROGs in the US as a part-time job. It may be that he is currently travelling with his day job. Can you describe the symptoms...
Hi Andrew, I will try to describe what happened. We were using the SPROG to set speed curves and change the sound settings on several locos. We were having...
Gentlemen, I've recently fitted an ESU Locsound 3.5 and a Locpilot FX to a multiple unit. I've programmed them using JMRI and a SPROG and received the normal...
... No suggestions, however, I have reprogrammed numerous CV's on an ESU Loksound 3.5 using both Sprog and Ops-Mode (Digitrax PR3+Zephyr). I had no problems...
