CV-Programmer Hardware (Converter for reading and changing the CVs)
The decoder in the model must have an 8 pin update socket.
330px
Black, Red, Green, Orange, Purple, Silver, Blue, Green
That applies to DC04, DC05, DC07 and DC08.
The DC06 can not be programmed by default because you have to solder a wire to SerOut on the processor. (directly on the chip)
The DC-Car-XT module is equipped with the update socket on the left.
The basic operation is like a vehicle decoder
Installing CV-Programmer-Software
Install USB driver
The supplied CV-Programmer is equipped with an FDTI-Chip-Set. This requires the correct Driver will be installed to match the operating system.
In the DC Car WIKI under select: WIN XP - WIN 7, or WIN 8
Perform the setup before plugging in the device.
In the Control Panel, the new COM port can be viewed and changed.
The COM port can not be higher than 16.
After multiple installation, com ports are reported as busy. You can try to overwrite them anyway to use a port under 16. By repeatedly changing to a different port number, incorrectly assigned ports are freely reported again.
Set up CV Programmer Software
From the DC-CAR WIKI under Download always the newest file e.g. Download DC-CAR_CV_578L or newer (test version 579M).
For the first installation the complete Setup is necessary. For an update, the exchange of files enough. see Trial Version
Plug in the USB cable and use the Find to check the possible COM port.
This must be between COM1 and COM 16.
Eventually use the Control Panel / Device Manager to detect and remember the COM port of FTDI (manufacturer).
!!! Please be sure !!! !!!
The program only works with a connected decoder.
Download
For DC07 or DC08 the CV-Programmer software 4.7.8g is required from Feb. 2014:
For DC07 or DC08 with the April 2015 update, the CV-Programmer 578c or higher is required
current version: Category: Download
Please save the saved settings first. (CV lists)
Then uninstall old version to install the new version without errors.
Connecting the decoder
Important, the connection of the update socket on the vehicle:
PIN 1 minus (black)
PIN 2 + 4 volts (red)
PIN 7 serial output (blue)
PIN 8 serial input (green)
DC04 / DC05 / DC07 small update socket
DC04 / DC05 / DC07 large update socket
Special case in
If you want to use the IR-feedback (2 IR-LEDs in series), connect them to the decoder serial output.
The leads from the update socket and the tag should then be soldered in front of the resistor inside the board.
The feedback connection MF5 (for DC-Car-XT) is not meant for this.
User manual
WARNING: If a Remote receiver is connected to the decoder, it must not receive any signal from a DCC booster or PC transmitter during the entire procedure, as otherwise communication problems or malfunction will occur!
For this you can cover the receiver with cardboard or plastic.
(Do not use glossy (aluminum) sheet.)
Before and during switching on, the button must be pressed. When the headlights are flashing, release the button.
The headlights continue to flash and the decoder is in CV programming mode.
First the CV's have to be read from the decoder.
To do this you need to press below:
Read all CV's from the decoder
Thus, the program automatically sets itself to the decoder type and the firmware version.
Now a CV can be selected. After clicking the explanation appears on the right .
At the top, the CV appear in the window. Next to it the current value is displayed.
This can be changed by typing in or by clicking the actual values
The new value is highlighted. Then this must be confirmed above.
To transfer to the decoder, press the button below:
Save CV xx to the vehicle
The list is then re-imported from the vehicle.
To avoid operator error, restart the program for setting another vehicle.
CV-List
To find the right CV faster, the CV-List is helpful.
This summarizes all adjustment possibilities.
With the Search in the WIKI the term / CV can be searched for and the explanation can be found.
Individual examples are also explained here: Category: CV List
Download
Download Programmer, Driver and CV-List Complete CV-List as PDF to print.
The list is then re-imported from the vehicle.
To avoid operator error, restart the program for setting another vehicle.
Probleme mit alten Decodern
siehe auch hier: CV-Programmer-Fehler
Es ist bei älteren Fahrzeugdecodern nicht möglich die Geschwindigikeit direkt einzustellen.
CV2 Mindestgeschwindigkeit
CV5 Höchstgeschwindigkeit
Trotzdem ist ab Mai 2011 die CV2 und CV5 einstellbar.
Siehe Fahrstufeneinstellung bei CV-Programmer-Bedienung.
Durch Datei speichern sind die Wert unter eigenem Namen zu sichern.
z.B. als Adresse 38.dcr oder Namen feuerwehr.dcr
Die können bei Bedarf wieder geladen werden.
Aktuell List save into the Decoder überträgt die veränderten Werte in den Decoder.
Bitte Beachten:
Alte gespeicherte Daten nicht einfach auf einen neueren Decodertyp übertragen!
Es fehlen sonst ein paar wichtige Werte und es wird ein Fehlverhalten hervorrufen.
In der neuen Software ist dafür ein Vergleichsprogramm vorhanden.
So kann man die Unterschiede ermitteln und die relevanten Werte notiern bzw. ausdrucken.
Nach dem Auslesen sind in den letzten Zeilen Datum und Serienummern zu finden.
Ab 578C sind diese Daten sofort oben zu sehen.
Diese Daten brauchen wir für den Service.
