I have now tried programing "on the main" using option 1, address program, using the PP system manual. I did not get the "Can't read CV" message after loading the addresses. Tried to activate both long and short addresses. Still nothing on either engine. Given that both locos react (lights, sound and movement) to conventional ac or dc power with the DCS switch employed, yet have no reaction when they are switched to DCC has me baffled. Any programing ideas are appreciated.
