Hello All
This is a double post. I also posted in the Locomotive section since I wasn't sure which one was appropriate.

I just picked up an Athearn Genesis SD60i today It's the just released version and it's my first Athearn.
The documentation that comes with it is incomplete and there is nothing on their website that I can find. Question. What sound decoder is used on these engines and where can I find better info on the CV's. For instance one of the CV's that is referred to but with no informationis CV 118(headlight function) is referred to in the fold up pamphlet but the CV chart has no mention of it.

Thanks
 
I just read CV8 and it responds 143 which I believe is MRC

CV7 shows a 1.

It is a 28 function decoder and I don't see a reference to it on the MRC site. Might be a new one.
 
All Athearn sound units use MRC sound decoders... Unless you have an MRC system, don't expect to be able to do much with those CVs anyway.
 
Actually I've been able to change all of the CV's in the supplied manual with no problem. My only beef is that the manual doesn't show all cv's.
