FAULTY DCC DECODER – how do you know? Have you ever had a locomotive simply not working, you checked everything: cleaned wheels, cleaned pickups, adjusted the pickups, sticking or binding mechanism but nothing works. Well it COULD be the decoder. This video explores a DCC tester unit by ESU. In this video I: I give a guided tour of the unit. Explain how I use a plug and play system for simple and quick connection of a controller to a layout or other end user ‘device’. Show how the unit connects to a dcc controller. Test a few dcc decoders of varying types. Final thoughts. BASICS SERIES If there is something you would like me to demonstrate please get in touch, I’ll see what can be done.
