Configuring (programming) decoder settings

13.3 Programming on the Programming track

As explained above, programming means changing the settings of
decoders.
Depending on the decoder setting that you want to change, two
menus are available to facilitate handling:
Programming Address
This is the easiest way to determine or change a decoder address.
You do not need to know in which CVs the values for the address
have to be entered, the process is the same for all addresses.
Programming CV
This menu is used for all other CVs that you want to change.
Programming register mode
This type of programming is used for older decoders that have not
yet implemented CV programming.

13.3.1 What is a programming track?

When using "Programming on the programming track" it is not
necessary to know the decoder address. The decoder receives a
command like:
"Enter value 15 in CV4!"
To ensure that only one particular decoder receives the programming
command, you must make sure while programming on the
programming track that only this decoder receives this command. This
is done by using a track that is electrically isolated from the rest of the
layout, the so-called "programming track", on which you place only the
locomotive whose decoder settings you want to change.
