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...
I’ve done a 'reset to defaults' rather than a factory reset (I was worried that might dump the sound project). The unit responded to address 3, but stopped...
... What did you do after pressing "reset to defaults" within JMRI ? The "Reset To Defaults" button will reset all the CV variables on all the pages within the...
Hi Ian I don't know if I am teaching you to suck eggs or not but if you have 4 x 220 Ohm resistors you can join them in parallel which will give you 56 Ohms, ...
... I am stuck. Do you have another command station which can read and write CV's (no matter how labouriously) ? If the chip is OK, it must be possible to...
... It's a bodge for the way some command stations react to the large inrush current commonly encountered with sound decoders. SPROG is more subtle and can...
Hi Andrew, SPROG 2 USB V2.5. I've tried the 47 Ohm resistor trick, to no effect. Strangely when I used the JMRI throttle the power LED blinks and nothing ...
Thanks Chris, I only had 3 so I popped down to Radio Shack and bought a pack of 47Ohm resistors Ian In message <grggbk+lsq3@eGroups.com>, chris_gamble6587 ...
In addition Andrew. I've found that the sound, lights and motor all start if the JMRI Throttle is shut down Ian Hi Andrew, SPROG 2 USB V2.5. I've tried the 47...
... Setting a four digit address (CV17,18) should not alter CV1. The decision within the decoder on which address to respond to (CV1 or CV17,18) is taken by...
Ian, ... Ding! How did you end up with zero in CV1 in the first place? A value of zero in CV1 instructs the decoder to revert to the alternate power source as...
Andrew, as I wasn't using the short address I set it to 0. I do this with all my decoders as I only use long addresses, but this is the first time I've seen...
I have downloaded the latest drivers. Vista 64 reports having a problems with the install. File not found. (Doesn't say what file of course.) Vista 64 does...
Ian, It's part of the NMRA Recommended Practice: http://www.nmra.org/standards/DCC/standards_rps/RP-9.2.2%202007%20July.pdf CV1 is mandatory with a Uniform...
George, Unfortunately I'm just about to leave for a weeks holiday. The drivers do, in general, work with Vista, I'm not sure about Vista64. I'm hoping someone...
Sorry about this! Cannot remember/find how to download .xml files for decoder definitions. I have just reinstalled my SPROG II on a new Vista laptop, and am in...
Hello Mike Do you have the old .xml files you were using. The roster is under your profile C:\Users\your name\JMRI\roster just copy them across to the same...
Thanks Chris, Just copied my Decoder file to ThumbDrive and went to open the same folder in the new computer to find it full of definitions, including Massoth...
Chris, Its now seem to be working and have changed CV's in Massoth emotion xls However, I can see a definition in the XML folder for Zimo 640 which I need for...
