Hello Mastic Short Line, Thanks for showing the difference in DCC AC {PWM} frequency vs DC {PWM} frequency in your video. In the next Production release of DCC-EX version 5.4 we have also added the ability to set the Analog DC cabs Frequency by address, using F-Keys F29, F30 or F31 so you can adjust the tonal sound in real time that comes from the DC engine when it's under power. Here are two examples of a DCC-EX ROSTER setup. //EXRAIL Defined CAB DC ROSTER(address,"name"," FREQ F-keys ") // Spaces then Frequency F29 F30 F31 ROSTER(2001, "KCS 2001", "DC/////////////////////////////FQ 490Hz/FQ 3400Hz/FQ 62500Hz/") // Analog DC Motor Only Diesel ROSTER(9120, "CP 9120", "DC/////////////////////////////FQ 490Hz/FQ 3400Hz/FQ 62500Hz/") // Analog DC Motor Only Diesel The Mega DCC-EX Command Station frequency are Default 131 Hz F29 490 Hz F30 3400 Hz F31 62500 Hz {only for next new Command Station uC processors ESP32-Wroom & the STM32 F4xxx Nucleo} Edited: 7-13-24 You can test these with the latest development versions DCC-EX 'devel' v5.2.69 and Engine Driver Beta v2.37.187 releases or greater.

Hi Kevin, Thank you SO MUCH for your appreciation of my presentation. Thank you also for sharing the latest developments with DCC-EX, Engine Driver and EX-RAIL. If it will truly enhance DC operations, then I may just kick the thought of buying decoders for my DCC-Ready locomotives to the curb! It may also prompt me to do a follow-up video in the future. I've printed your comment so I can keep it handy but, of course, the noob that I kinda still am I might go to the Discord and/or Facebook page for guidance. Thank you again.
