LGB 55025 Switch Decoder CV settings

I think I must have a problem! So I tried that, well I think I did. The programming insert has tags attached to the wires to ensure you don't get them the wrong way around. The brown white says IN, on the 55025 and the green yellow says transformer.
One other thing, I did try it today, but when I was running trains and I tried to change the points the trains stopped!
I will try again tomorrow in the daylight and see what happens. On the handheld control when I select the points setting a 5 is displayed, I then enter the point value 1 then press < or > to get the point to change. The point don't change but the display 5 goes out and comes back on. Is that normal?
 
With your version (not LGBs) of instructions, together with my 55045 and 55025 I was able to quite simply program my switch decoder.

Brookwood Junction now has four working points/switches.

Thanks Mark, very much appreciated. :)
 
very interesting, I have the LGB 55525, it seems that at the address bank can simply be chosen by central station 3 by typing in the address and same with switching time as well. it detects the decoder as MFX accessory in this case
 
whatlep said:
I think the basic problem is that the wires going to the IN terminals need to come from the DCC central station, not the transformer. By the way, unless you're doing something unusual, you don't need to understand Configuration Variables. You're just entering a point's ID number (OK, that is a CV, but forget about that!).

Unlike the Massoth switch decoder which is completely flexible in what point IDs are used on any output, the LGB 55025 automatically allocates the other 3 outputs as a consecutive run based on the first value (output 1). You only need to connect one point motor. If you program 4 times, you're simply overwriting the existing setting three times. The ranges of consecutive point IDs available for programming are shown on page 10 of the 55025's manual.

So, connect a pair of wires between DCC central station output and the IN terminals, loop the programming terminals and connect just one point motor to the A terminals. Then follow the instructions on page 11 of the 55025 manual, just as you have been doing. That should be that.
