Decoder Buddy Version 5 – NTZ5 motherboard for 21 Pin decoders (Scale=HO) NIX-DecoderBuddy now with 12 outputs – use with ESU V5 decoders
Light Test Board
With the abundance of lighting functions and wanting to see and check them before I placed the shell on the frame, I decided I needed a way to see what was happening!I went to work and prototyped a small connector board with LEDs so I could put the frame on the test track and test the motor, speaker and lighting functions before assembling the locomotive.The Light Test Board is also a good diagnostic tool to see if the decoder and motherboard are behaving properly!
The Light Test Board works with the 8 output Original Decoder Buddy, and both the 12 output V5 and V5B.
