Hi all, as per my other post am totally new to dcc, I have managed to set it all up and even got a few locos running. Am using a lgb mts all parallel with a 55015p remote. Two questions
In the programming mode there are two letters c and p. What the hell is that all about.
Cvs. how do I go about changing them with my 55015p remote ?

Hi and welcome to the forum, can't assist with your question, but I am sure the DCC "boys" will be along soon.
