Setting Long Address

The QSI decoders installed in typicialy in the Eureka range and have a voice readback as do all QSI decoders, this can cause issues when setting a long address.

To set a long adress the voice read back must be turned off.

Puct you locomotive on the track and select, loco, 3 do not put any zeros in front as it will be long 3 and this is a different address - OK.

Next blow the whistle to confirm that you are communicating with that engine successfully.

Next use PROM [programing on the main] and get to the screen on a NCE system that shows

1 - ADR  2 = CV 

Select 2, enter

CV number = 62 , enter

CV value = 0 , enter

Return to the original screen

1 = ADR

Select long address and enter the locomotive number.

To turn voice readback on repeat the process above except set CV 62 to a value of 1. Generally we leave it off

Hope this helps and remember 90% of problems with QSI decoders are fixed with a reset
