Can anyone tell mew how many volts the DCS Commander should put out? Mine is putting out 35 volts and that seems to have burned out some signal leds. I also think I ruined a I-tad with the signal and a MTH 0-42 switch. This is all new to me and picked-up the hobby about 3 months ago and am making my share of mistakes. Not sure what to think anymore. John

Hi John,

The DCS Commander has a MAX output of 16.5 volts DC.  It sounds like your unit has been damaged and is doubling the output voltage.  What are you using as the power supply?  Is it a DZ-1000 brick?  Is there any chance the output terminals were connected to an AC voltage source?  The type of failure you mentioned can result from the output terminals being connected to AC voltage.
