Title: Digikeijs DR4018 from a Hornby R8213
Post by: Tim Parsonson on March 01, 2021, 17:41
Has anyone successfully connected the Digikeijs unit to the Hornby controller?

I have done it with the Elite with Select outstations but not with a Select directly but I don't see why there should be a problem.

Just a case of cross interpreting the instructions I guess.
I'm encouraged, thanks.

Would be useful to know the sequence that you used if you can recall. :)

Having read thru' the DR4018 instructions it looks like you will not be able to use it with the Select as it does not have a programming track output nor is it capable of 4 digit loco numbers. It is easy with the Elite just follow the instructions. If you have a friend with a more capable DCC controller get them to set the DR4018 up for you.
