Is there a circular gold sticker on the bottom of the loco? - Should have a six-digit number on it..
What is that number please? - This will give us the approximate manufacturing date.

I think the sound card may need serial commands, due to its' age..

I have just had this with a loco I added a decoder to. If the CS is set for parallel for this loco, then you can only control things by pressing the F1 button repeatedly. - And that is not very reliable!
If the CS is set for serial, then sounds work as they should.

Unfortunately, I am unable to tell you how to set the MTS system to send serial commands.
 
Sorry, can't help you identify the decoder, but . . .

Using LGB MTS equipment, isn't it just a case of pressing F and 9 on the MTS handset?

Before doing so, press 3. if the display flashes once. it's in parallel mode. If it flashes three times, it's in serial mode.

Repeat that after pressing F and 9 to check it's in the mode you want.
 
...............Using LGB MTS equipment, isn't it just a case of pressing F and 9 on the MTS handset?.............

Trying (unsuccessfully) to remember from when I had an MTS2 - do you press F AND 9 simultaneously, or press (and release) F THEN press 9?

I think I mentioned this before - its a factory fitted LGB Large On Board decoder (made by Massoth) and a Sound module (also made by Massoth).

It may be worth while sending an email to hotline@massoth.de

F then 9 :)
 
Hi, Just to keep all informed that ive sent Massoth an Email regarding the problem, will keep you informed of the outcome.

Many thanks to all for your all your help.
 
Hi All,

Just to let you know that Massoth are looking into the problem, they say "as did Philip" that it seems like a "serial v parallel" problem,

Thankyou to all for your help
