to locomotives as they are operating on the layout. During a
recent op session, I was doing a switching job on our club lay-
out
(
) and the loco I was using ran a bit faster than I
wanted at full throttle. So, I went over to our computer (running
JMRI) and opened the file for
the culprit. A quick change of
the forward and reverse trim
settings and I was back operat-
ing with a slower loco. I stored
the new setting in the decoder
on the loco and in the com-
puter as a back up.
I love POM. Yup. No question.
As I said in my column about
A Dozen DCC Myths
(
)
, there is nothing
intrinsically dangerous about
POM.

celeration) to a value of 3 in Ops Mode (Po). Note that the display
is showing you that it is in Ops Mode and what loco it is talking to.
