My trusty kit built SPROG, which I have been using for a few years now, has suddenly developed a strange fault. The initial symptom is that when querying the...
... Hi Mike, As Matt has already suggested, it's well worth updating to the latest Decoder Pro (now ver 2.6). You may find your decoder is now in the list. You...
Thanks for the response Pete. I've managed to get everyting working now. I needed to re-install latest Decoder Pro, which now correctly recognises the Hornby...
Hi All I purchased three of these decoders as upgrades for 2-function ones. However, the chip does not even drive the wheels, let alone operate the lights....
Hello everyone, Since having my newly repaired SPROG returned a couple of weeks ago I've been busy catching up with numerous decoder programming. However, I...
... I wrote the current JMRI files for the DCX74/75, but I've not tried any of the larger chips. I can't answer whether the older DCX50 file would work, but be...
SPROG ll and JMRI on an iMac I am new to dcc and intend to purchase SPROG ll and use it with JRMI. I have an iMac computer that I would like to use for this...
Early firmware revisions of the CTElektronic decoders had a wierd hybrid mode where neither direct or paged mode worked (note this is mostly from memory). ...
Thanks to Peter, to Nigel and to Andrew for your input which I shall eagerly digest. I've never been one for the straightforward or conventional or mundane ! ...
... Hi Paul, Might seem a stupid question but how do you know you still have straight line speed? Do all decoders appear to act in the same way? For example,...
Hello Keith, hello everyone, I should perhaps have said in my first post that I have basically let DecoderPro do the work, so I haven't done anything as such...
Paul, There seems to be some confusion here. Speed curves, and the associated CVs 2, 5 & 6, control the mapping between the speed step you select on the...
Hi there, I need to adjust the settings in a friends engine. It uses an MRC 1656 chip, and I'm wondering if the Sprog II will recognise it. I would be grateful...
I need to speak with someone who knows how to install SPROG ll and DecoderPro on my MAC. Call me an idiot if you desire but these instructions are rather...
Hi, I haven't used my Sprog for a good while and want to know: What is the current version firmware? The manual for using Sprog II decoder pro is pretty good....
Clark, You canıt phone as Iım in Oz right now (on a train as it happens) and the next time Iım in the US will be mid September for the NG convention. (we ...
Hi Andrew I am having a similar problem. My system is: Sprog II Mac OS X 10.5 on MacBook Intel I am using JMRI DecoderPro and I can very sucessfully use the...
James, This could be a different problem. Before you switch to command station mode, use the service mode throttle, but select any address other than the loco...
Hi Andrew Thank you very much for the reply. This has solved it. The loco I was using was addressed to 3, I have subsequently changed it and as suggested...
Hi Andrew/James, I experienced a very similar issue with my SPROG this weekend! I thought I'd understood the little quirks, but I had a loco on address 3 that...
P.S. - I would like address 3 to be a valid loco address in command mode! My daughter's layout uses a Bachmann EZ-Command, which just addresses locos 1-9, so...
Andrew, Address 3 is perfectly valid, as are all addresses, it just depends how you use them ;-) This may get a bit long. In normal programmer mode the 'A'...
Hi Andrew (C), A very good explanation - thank you, and it explains the other behaviour I had experienced. Thanks for your continued effort in SPROG...
Hi Guys I have only just joined this group but have been using a sprog ll with decoder pro for a few years on and off. Recently I have come across a problem...
Hi Greg, The only time I have come across your problem is when my programming track needs a really good clean which normally clears the error message! In reply...
