It’s free and reasonably easy to set the CVs that other respondents have referred to and also to set a speed profile.

Good luck!

It does it automatically of a set piece of track in both direction. I used 2 meter of track on my z scale and they run within 10 mm of each other around 60 meters of track. Also very helpful when running a consist

Kind regards Bob

CV2 is the voltage at which the loco starts. CV5 is the top or maximum speed and CV6 is the mid speed. So, one loco may need a CV5 of 255/max and another loco may need 200 and still another need 150. You have to test them each, one at a time. Setting CV6 for mid speed is the last thing you do and should be about half of what setting you have CV5 set at. Another thing. Read the manuals that came with the decoder.
