I looked on page 3 and did not see anything I would call tests or trouble shooting instructions but here is what I would do.<br /><br />Connect the PSX-AR to a section of track by itself and verify that it passing power by running an engine. Like this it should operate just like a PSX-1. Place a short on the rail to test circuit breaker function.<br /><br />Be sure that both rails are fully gapped at both ends of the reversing section. I just fixed a problem on my movable end loop that has been bugging me for months. What I found is that I could not rely on Kato track insulator joiners to fully isolate DCC signal and made my own gaps. DCC signal does not behave the same way as regular DC and seems to be able to bridge small gaps. The PSX instructions state to stagger the gaps by 21mm but I have not done so and have not had a problem.<br /><br />Good luck and let me know how it goes.

I am sure we have wired them correctly and we are going to take a look this arvo. The seller suggests that I do a whole lot of tests as per page 3 in the manual. Any clues?<br />Rod.Rod Warrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07625702984993829556noreply@blogger.com
