Qdecoder are absolutely flat on the bottom. There are no parts
that could scratch the mounting surface. Thus it can be screwed
directly on the model railway layout or fixed using a self adhesive
tape.
Restoring factory settings
Restoring factory settings of a Qdecoder is quite simple: Just press
the programming button for 10 seconds. What you see is:
• After one second the decoder enters the programming mode and
the LED lights – keep pressing the button
• After about 5 seconds the LED starts to flash. This flashing gets
faster and faster and after 10 seconds the factory settings are
restored – now release the button.
Please keep this guide for later reference!
