Hornby E-Link - How to know your DCC chip is working (2/3)
Channel: fokeyjo

This is a trainer reference for my father so that he can program the DCC chip settings in his trains without me. I posted it because I thought this might help anyone else trying to work out these horrendously-confusing screens in the Hornby software (really guys, hire an HCI expert!)

This video in the series shows us attempting to talk to a DCC chip via Railmaster and actually getting a response from it and subsequently programming an ID into it then adding it to the Railmaster software.

Disclaimer: I'm no expert. I don't know what I'm doing, I don't know anything about train sets, DCC's, any of it, so don't bother asking or suing. What I do know is computer systems and have a little common sense and this is what I've found from trial and error and reading manuals trying to work it out. This might save a few minutes head scratching for someone, or provide entertainment (really?), nothing more.
