Hello all WDP-users.

Question to herr Norbert Burkert:

In your note in Forum from 14/02-2006 you discuss three possibilities for coding the sound-mfx with a second address in order to reach the sounds under F5-F8, and you end up recommending the ESU Lokprogrammer.
As far as I can see (I have both Lok-Programmer versions), even with Lok-Programmer version 2 it will only be possible to encode the second address as basic address + 1, and when you, as i do, use the Motorola system, there are only 80 addresses possible. I would like to encode an address as for example basic address 75 (for driving and F0-F4), and second address 175 (for calling up F5-F8), which saves the use of one address in the 1-80 area.
I have successfully encoded an address above 80 with the IB, but it is a bit difficult, and if there is an easier way with the Lok-Programmer, could you please explain it for me ?

Kind regards

Kaj Nielsen

Hi Kaj,

just a comment from my side to your topic (even if I'm not Norbert). I see in your signature that you have got an IB, so if the main purpose for you is to assign (new) addresses to the MFX-decoder then you clearly need nothing else than an IB. It's also no problem to assign BOTH MFX-addresses above 80 to the decoder or - as in your example - get the 'main' address to '75' and the 2nd one to '175' to be able to use also F5-F8.

Regards
Rüdiger

Hello Rüdiger,
thank you for your answer, I have so far used the IB, but according to herr Burkert is the use of ESU Lokprogrammer so much easier, and as I have one, I would like to use it. Anyhow, he has not given an answer, so I go on using the IB.  
Mit freundlichen Grüssen
