Hi, No, the YD8xxx decoders are one-way. for having position feedback from your MP¡¯s contacts, we advise our YD6016xx-GND feedback modules.

Hi Alex, The YD9401 does not / can not / may not implement the closed and proprietary DigiTrax Tether less protocol. So, sorry, won't work. You'll still u need one of those UR9x devices. Greets, Karst

Hi, Gatewaying nor bridging is provided in the YD9401. Reason: Security and Perfomance related. It was THE big security hole in DR5000's RM-04 module. We closed that hole on purpose. Greets, Karst

Re: YD9401 and Digitrax Simplex
Karst, I think you misunderstood my question. Of course a UR91 is required to receive the RF signals from a UT4R, DT400R or other Simplex throttle. My question is whether Digitrax Simplex throttles

Re: YD9401 and Digitrax Simplex
Ah, In that way :) Do you mean the Baudrate-Tune option ? That one I implemented already back in V1.4.2.... And I did it again in the YD7100 Firmware ( ported ==> YD7001 ) because not only UR91 suffer

Re: YD9401 and Digitrax Simplex
Karst, That sounds promising! The Baud Rate setting Ryan had me change on the DR5000 is LocoNet tab>Settings and I set the Baud Rate to 800, then the Simplex throttles worked fine. The change was

Re: How Do I Connect Everything Togethe?
Les, What specific functionality are you looking for? An ESU ECoS with TC Gold is a pretty substantial setup. You'd still need a network for +SmartHand, the Wi-Fi on the YD7001 would be WiThrottle or

Re: YD9401 and Digitrax Simplex
Karst, I think that's the same setting as in the Digikeijs software. If that's the case, then it should work to enable reception of LocoNet packets from the UR91. Alex -- Alexander Wood Hartford-New
