John H posted:DCS reads voltage assuming that 22 volts are on the track. Barry’s book explains the discrepancies, at least for the variable channels.
18 volts on ZW-l going into and out of variable on TIU. Remote reads about 15.4 volts. I will look at Barry's book. I still am perplexed that DONNIED (Original Poster)mentioned the slowdown of his engine. I have the same with my Dreyfuss. I don't think Barry went that deep in the book. Simple procedure would be to up the transformer voltage if the DCS is accurate. I will have to put my Fluke on the track to get actual voltage. I will post my results for everyone after I obtain them.
