Notes and observations.:
Information as supplied is for Firmware Revisions 2.50 and 2.80, all documentation is available via the links within this Blog Posting, can be used as references to other version numbers.
CV 1 short address to 127, Long Address available using CV 17 and CV 18, and changing CV 29 Bit 5 ON.
Decoder Reset, is initiated by using CV 6 = 55 and CV 5 = 55 in Register Mode via the Navigator (PIKO/Massoth) Handsets, connected to a Massoth 1210Z Central Station using the programming track.
The PIKO 35010 Central Station is unable to carry out the instructions for a Decoder Reset, even though the Navigators will indicate that a Reset is successful, a decoder Read Back will show that the original values have not changed.
A work around is to use the Navigator Change Address Screen, which can be used to Set the address back to 3, will also re configure CV 29, as there are so few CV's to change, use the CV Write/Read screen to change the remaining CV's.
Massoth Service Tool, is unable to activate a Decoder Reset in Register Mode, a Reset by using CV 55 = 55 has also been disabled, and has been removed from the updated Decoder Template.
Recreated a new updated Massoth Service Tool Template, which is used to Write the correct CV Values to the decoder, as if carrying out a Decoder Reset.
There are a few variances in the default values for CV's in versions 2.50 and 2.80.
Version 2.80, CV 29 will default to 28 speed steps, CV 2 to 0, and CV 61 to 0.
Both CV listings are available as downloadable links for comparison.
CV 54 will default to 2 on a Reset, Load Monitoring ON, CV 54 is also used to set the F1 output to flashing by adding 16 to the value.
Note, CV 49 and CV 50 will default to 32, maximum available track voltage.
