I've just
programmed my 3rd 'early' Tsunami and you are correct, the extended address
must be programmed on the main, even with a PTB100 programming booster. It is a quirk with Digitrax but it is easy to
do. Just leave the engine in the factory
default number 3 and make sure no other number 3's are
on the track.

Hi All,
I think this
was on the Digitrax list but we can add it here also.
According to
the Soundtraxx site with Tsunami firmware version 64.00.00 (Nov. 2005 release):
"Extended
(4-Digit) Addresses may not program on Digitrax command stations using paged or
direct mode programming.
Workaround:
Use operations mode programming to set the extended address in CV 17 and CV 18.
Then set bit 5 of CV 29 to enable the long address.
Resolution:
This problem has been corrected with firmware release
64.01.05 for direct mode programming. Note: The
PTB-100 Program Track Booster is required to use the program track of all
Digitrax systems."
(Source: http://www.soundtraxx.com/documents/tsu_revhistory.htm)
Firmware
version 64.01.05 was released in January 2006.
The firmware version can be found (if the Tsunami is loaded with factory
defaults) by reading CV7, CV105 and CV106 in the following xx.yy.zz
manner.
xx = CV 7, major revision code (64=steam, 65=diesel) yy
= CV 105, minor revision code zz = CV 106, default CV
value configuration
Best

It does not matter what I PUT IN for a extended address, none of them work. I tried just using 3 --- in extended mode--dead CV29--
50 or 34 no difference. CV25=2
We have two engines from Loy's Toys with Tsunami
and the same problem with both. I am the
second person to look at the problem.

CV29 = 50 turns on speed tables... Try a value of CV29 = 34 and see if that
works. If it does, tell us the value in
CV25...

Dcs 100 with Power-Pax,DT400r
Throttle, JMRI to look at CV's

What values do you have in CV's 17, 18, 29?
What system and throttle are you using?

New user here. Everything works in normal addressing range 0-127.
Nothing works in extended addressing range. The CV17,18 and 29 look correct, but
nothing happens. I have reset to factory default, so unit is not locked.
