QUOTE (72C @ 12 Nov 2008, 07:56) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>In recent months my Multimaus set-up has become less reliable but I suspect that my use of a Maerklin 5A power supply may be the issue.
The system often shows an Err 13 error but will reset if I use Roco's own power supply.
This prompts two questions:
1. Why is this happening and how can I stop it?
2. Is there a suitable DCC set-up to replace the Multimaus?
I still wish to retain the Roco accessory modules but I do not want to use Lenz as I dislike the LH100 and LH90 because I find them non-intuitive when used on a small intensive shunting layout.
Is there a simple, DCC set-up that uses a handheld with full range rotary speed control (not centre-off) and easy to use turnout control that will work with my existing system?
Thank you
*** I'd look at the NCE PowerCab - it has full rotary plus PB speed control, and is very instinctive and easy to use, yet has very full functionality compared to most larger systems - all for appx GBP100. It will control the Roco accessory modules and has a clean upgrade path with no wastage if you want a full high power system later. Turnout control is easy = press accessory button, choose accessory number, press enter....
everything is in the box when U buy it.
