When in programming the lights go back and fourth fast, this is when you cut the power to them to get them into TMCC mode, THEN you can assign them IDs the second time you put them into program mode.

I re read the instructions according to Z-stuff set to red position then hold button down for 4 seconds after the switch changes to green position.

the green light will flash, then the red and green will alternately turn on and off.
this is the state for setting the address so release the button and the red and green lights should now flash rapidly and be ready to accept an address.

this is direct quote from there instructions no where did it say to turn power off and back on.

now my main problem is after the green red and green light flashes from there on if I release it I get a steady green light no quick flash as indicated so where did I mess up following his instructions am totally baffled.

only place I read to turn power off was at the beginning where you initially wire them up and turn on for first time so is this what your referring to and not the Programming section at lower part of instruction sheet?

while were all discussing these machines and data driver I was under the assumption that the dz-2001A was already legacy modified which is why they went away from the data driver.

am I incorrect please advise.

as to needing another amplifier board seems like this product needs to be redesigned to be totally compatible with legacy.

and cannot say one way or other on legacy base as some say it's limited to what it can drive yet I have 2 tpc's and 6 bpc's working using legacy base and cab-2 so wheres the problem using multiple devices on legacy just trying to understand it all.

in closing after a 12 hr power down hey there still working!

I wonder what the next kafuffle awaits me around the next curve?


thanks for all the help so far, $oo
