RR-CirKits FAQs

Q: Digtrax and Indexed CVs

There should be no issues setting an Indexed CV using a DT402, DT500 or DT602 throttle with a Digitrax Command Station.

JMRI with a LocoNet interface such as the Digtrax PR3/PR4 or a LocoBuffer will also work.

Issues are found with the following command stations:

Do not attempt to write an indexed CV with the following:

• DCS50 Zephyr
• DCS51 Zephyr Xtra
• DCS52 Zephyr Express'"`UNIQ--ref-00000027-QINU`"'

Q: Connection Issues with Digitrax Command Station USB Port

There seems to be some issues with the USB port included on recent Digitrax Command Stations, such as the DC52 (Zephyr Express), DCS210/DCS210+ and DCS240/DCS240+.

Connections to JMRI and other software packages running on an external computer may be interrupted.

Using a Digitrax PR3 or PR4 or a RR-Cirkits LocoBuffer-USB LocoNet interface is reportedly more stable than the internal PR4 built into the command station.

Command Station has Locked Up

If the command station has locked up, the recommended solution is to disconnect both the power and USB cable, then wait at least thirty seconds.

After the time has elasped reconnect the power and USB cables.
