BEMF Settings
Some decoders (TCS, for example) have simple BEMF settings:
on or off. Others (SoundTraxx or Digitrax, for example) have

but the tweaking makes a big difference in your operation. I
will refer you to your decoder’s instructions. To get Tsunamis to
creep requires the BEMF settings to be adjusted. There is a way
to fix this, but it is beyond this column. Check it out on my web
site in the middle of the Tsunami page
for instructions and a video (10).

BEMF cutoff settings in this tab, too.
