Bug in Dual Double Strobe Light Effect
nodcc4me:
Sounds more like a programming glitch Kevin, but I'll give it a try. Thanks.

Tim,
Deleting one of the other light effects allowed me to see the dual double strobe effect. However, from what I saw the limit is not two full pages but more like 8 effects. I saw 6 effects on the first page, and only 2 on the 2nd page. When I deleted one of the listed effects the dual double strobe appeared as the 2nd item on the 2nd page.
As for where the bug regarding effect list might be, I'm leaning towards the LM, because the HC and C-1 both list more than 8 effects when copying a file to the LM, but only 8 effects are listed when you try to apply them to a button. I'm assuming based on no evidence at all that the application of an effect to a button happens in the LM rather than the HC.
As for the "bug" that started all of this, I must have confused this function with another, because it works fine. Apologies for the mistaken alert, but some of the greatest discoveries in history were by accident.
Thanks again for your help.
Jim

You can thank Bill for this one Jim, his post to try deleting files reminded me of the "pages" bug which I had forgotten about, which I'm kinda surprised at myself for forgetting since it was only a few weeks ago I came across it. I thought I remembered 2 full pages being 4 to a page but as you discovered, 6 and 2, not 4 and 4.
I still have to let RE know as well...

Another question about the dual double strobe function, when I navigate away from the button screen on the HC the function on the module stops. This happens whether I switch to another loco, the information screen, or turn off the HC to let the train just run on its own. Is it supposed to do that?
Thanks,
JIm

Once a function is enabled, it should stay enabled, at least until the power is cut. Usually, when the power returns, that function will return as well, unless it is turned off before cutting the power.
