NCE Power Cab problems
#1
Hey everyone! My NCE Power Cab is not completely starting up when I turn on the power. Two days ago, it worked fine. Today, I turned it on and it froze on the initial screen where it gives the cab version (1.3) and cab number (02). It won't boot up past this. I tried resetting the cab by holding the select loco button while plugging the cable in and then resetting the cab number to 00. It allows me to change the cab number and the parameters under this menu, but it still will not go past the initial start up screen when I exit the menu. I even disconnected the wires to the power bus and tried to reset the cab, but no change in behavior. I opened the cab to make sure nothing had come loose, but it all looks secure. I checked the port/unit the cab plugs into, and it looks ok -- nothing loose or missing. Anyone have any ideas how to correct the problem? Or am I going to have to suck it up and send it back to NCE? Thank you in advance for any help/advice you have to offer. Bummed out that I can't run a train right now....

Chuck, there is a yahoo group for NCE and they are a pretty smart bunch of guys that will more than likely have an answer for you in minutes. I use MRC and I am on the MRC forum and we discuss all DCC systems, but the best bet is the Yahoo group.
