Digitrax tripping

by Puckdropper <puckdropper(at)yahoo(dot)com> Jun 11, 2008 at 04:23 AM

My club runs a Digitrax Super Chief system with a DCS100 command station 
and DB150 booster.  Recently, the reversers attached to the system started

chirping, about every 4-5 seconds.  I isolated both reversers, and the 
problem didn't go away, so I think they're fine.

Both command station and booster flash off every 4-5 seconds, then 
immediately come back.  What this does is make headlights blink, on it'll 
stop locomotives without flywheels.  Sometimes, engines take off on their 
own.

I've tried isolating sections, but the problem still remains.  However, 
when I disconnect the loconet cable between the command station and 
booster, the problem appears to go away.

Does anyone have any ideas what could cause this?  There was no 
configuration change before the problem started that I know of.  (We have 
not yet tried resetting the system.)
