Auto Reversers - Why won't DCC reversers work with RailPro?

 :o you silly billy. lol
Your still going to need some sort of DCC system to run all the DCC enabled fun stuff. "Slap"

Hehehe.

gregeusa:
So, to make it clear, and I think you have already "got" it.

A DCC autoreverser that is of the "short detection" type will need DCC as a source. It will not work on DC. (it turns out this is just the way the products available are designed)

There are DCC autoreversers that work from "sensor tracks", where they CAN work on DC. I'm in large scale and LGB and Massoth make these.

You use a short section of track, like an inch or 2, completely isolated (4 insulators) and it "senses" the desired polarity.

The autoreverser you have will not do the job for DC on the rails.
