Don't know the particular decoder, but some decoders give half wave between function output and rail/chassis and full output between fnction output and function ground.

You know, Greg, I was struck by the fact that you had no idea of a correct answer to his question and even began by stating you don't know which makes your reply just utter hogwash and useless. I used those two words to poke fun at you and you turn it into a brawl. You and your mate Dave. It doesn't make any sense at all to guess at an answer. Expensive equipment is at stake here but you have to belly up to the bar and lower the standards of the entire newsgroup by guessing. -- Ray > lower the standards of the entire newsgroup by guessing. > -- > Ray Now THAT is funny!

And speaking of which, let me make A Modest Proposal: I happen to own a medium-sized -and pitch-black- basement room. So how about we throw Haddad and Procter into it, bare nekked, each armed with a razor-sharp machete. Then we plunge the room into utter darknes and give them ten minutes to settle their differences before we flood the room with nerve gas. I also suggest we start a betting pool: Even money if either survives, a two-to-one payback if neither does, and we pipe the gas in nine minutes early if it sounds as if negotiation might break out.

I perform a public service here. Note the cadre of malcontents who are attacking me because I pointed out how dangerous your guessing at a solution can be, Greg. Do you want to buy that poor chap a new toy? You'd scream bloody murder if he sued you over bad advice. I just saved you a lawsuit and all you can do is moan, Scarecrow. -- Ray >>>> It's you and Greg who have the room together here. >>> [quoted text clipped - 24 lines] > -- > Ray If my advice caused the gentleman to destroy his decoder then he had no business buying the model, let alone taking it out of it's box. >If my advice caused the gentleman to destroy his decoder then he had no >business buying the model, let alone taking it out of it's box. Oh, dear. Excuses already. I had you pegged for at least a week. -- Ray > On 7/21/2009 2:06 AM Ray Haddad spake thus: > [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > > It's you and Greg who have the room together here.

I said I have no experience with his specific decoder. All decoders should work much the same way and as no-one else had attempted an answer I felt my experience might be relevant as I had achieved a similar effect with a different decoder. I have c25 years of experience with Lenz digital systems. Regards, Greg.P. >It seems you can't read a complete sentence, Ray. I said I have no >experience with his specific decoder. Then this alone should have sent screaming bells off in your head to leave the answer to those who KNOW the answer. Grow up, Greg. -- Ray >> It seems you can't read a complete sentence, Ray. I said I have no >> experience with his specific decoder. [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > -- > Ray Ray, I have been installing decoders for 25 years - no one with experience of the specific decoder answered rhe query. I gave a generalized answer based on experience of a similar symptom. The gentleman has the manual for his decoder so I consider that there was no need for me to repeat the information contained therein. Do you ever do anything other than troll? (one assumes you don't need an operating manual to accomplish those obvious bodily functions) Regards, Greg.P. >Ray, I have been installing decoders for 25 years - no one with experience >of the specific decoder answered rhe query. To normal people with the ability to think, that should have been the first clue for you to mind your own business rather than give potentially damaging advice about something you have no clue about. -- Ray I not understand all this replys from Date 20.

Jul. 2009 to today > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > > Juergen Hi Juergen, Ray likes to attack everything I write as he considers the Internet to be only for the US and it's citizens, so you should ignore everything not addressed directly to you. My advice is that the headlight bulb might be connected to the function output and the lok frame, giving it half wave current. That might be intentional or accidental. (full wave - bright) (half wave - dim) Alternatively it might and should be connected between the decoder function output and the decoder function ground to obtain full track current switched by the decoder. (I think yellow and grey wires but I don't have a decoder from your manufacturer or the manual) That is as far as I can safely go without the decoder manual. Regards, Greg.P.
