Does anybody have any idea on how to reset a ZTC sound decoder.
In this case it looks like it has been paired with a Lenz silver decoder. The lenz decoder will respond to an address change so i can control the loco but cannot figure out how to communicate wilth the ZTC module so still no sound working

Any ideas
Thanks
Bob

Hi Bob.

The ZTC sound manual has a small section relating to decoder reset on page 66, an extract follows you may need to read this section in full to reset.

Decoder Reset
An I2C error also indicates a hardware failure and the RDSD will be unable to remember any
changes made to the CV settings. Contact the factory for further assistance.
CV30 Default=0. Set default to 2. This implements a reset. After 30 seconds turn off the power,
wait 10 seconds then turn the power on again. CV30 Auto resets to 0. Then Set CV30 to 4 to reset
Decoder using the ZTC 511 OR 505.

Thanks Derek,
I have tried everything I can using the manual to reset the module and gave up in the end . Sent the loco to ZTC for testing/reprogramming
