mbates1566 Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 I just bought an MTH CP C40-8W and it works in DC (analog mode) when I place it on my DCC layout it causes a short and the system senses a fault and cycles on and off until I either remove the locomotive of turn off the power. I am using a Digitrax DCS 200. I was told the MTH locomotive would work on a DCC layout. Has anyone seen this sort of thing before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blid Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 I have some MTH 3-rail H0 engines with ProtoSound3E+. If the DCS/DCC switch is still in the DCS mode this will happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enginear joe Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 Protosound 2 does not run on DCC! Only the newest protosound 3 does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enginear joe Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 An older engine can be upgraded to ps3 by Ray, here on this forum. Then it will be DCC capable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
