What do the different beeps from the DCS100 mean?


1 Beep - DCS powered on successfully or sent programming command

3 Beeps - Loco address has been “purged” due to non-use

4 Beeps - Route nesting error or too many entries cascaded

5 Beeps - Booster short circuit shutdown. Fault alarm

6 Beeps - Command Station already present in system

7 Beeps - CMOS battery low condition

8 Beeps - Memory ECC/checksum fail. Auto reset (no action)

9 Beeps - DCS transmit failure. LocoNet fault

16 Beeps - Software timeout failure. Auto reset (no action)

Continuous soft clicks mean low input supply voltage.
