The long awaited Prodigy Advance DCC PC interface is here. The software is a free download with the only necessary additional purchase being the connection cable. You can download version 1.1 of the software here. We will periodically upload the latest releases, so keep checking this page for updates. You can purchase the interface hardware directly from Gaugemaster by clicking the ‘Buy’ button at the bottom of this page.
You will also need the Cable Interface hardware package for the Prodigy Advance or Advance2
You may also need drivers for your computer:
Click here to download drivers for Vista
Click here to download drivers for Windows 98 to Windows XP
Click here to download the manual
(If you have a problem downloading any of the above then 'right click' on the link and 'Save' the item instead)
Here are a few pointers:
- The WinRaR license message will be removed if you order their software otherwise the message pops up.
- When you open the software, the front page shows dual throttles. Both can be operated using one cab (or walk-around). Later we will add a single throttle version and perhaps a 4 throttle version.
- The CV blaster will allow you to download CV settings from someone else. For instance you will see a few profiles in the zip file. You can simply open the file on the CV Blaster page by clicking ‘Load CV Blaster file’, select your file, and it will program all CV settings into your decoder in one click of a button. If you make a change and save it for reference you can do so. Then always go back to it when you want. You will also be able to email your settings to someone else or vice versa.
- The program page, the fast clock and accessory selection all seem fairly straight forward.
- The roster page can be filled in, then you can click any loco you want to activate by clicking on the left column and selecting Throttle A or Throttle B. You will then see it listed on the throttle. We have included two sample pages partially filled out to show you how can create your own and save it with a different name. If you have a filled in roster page you can load it into the software whenever you want to. Use example roster page 1 or 2 as examples. To get there click on “Load Roster Page” and you then select the roster page.
