    Will have a look at it. There are some pieces of information missing on the manufacturer's website (advanced CV definition).

    @Terry: would be better if you'd register, so that we can exchange directly if needed.

    The manufacturer has confirmed that the missing documentation will not be available before a while. Decoder definition on hold until this information is available either from the manufacturer or a user.

    Is there any information that I can derive from one of the decoders that would help ??

    Referring to list of basic CVs from DCCconcepts (http://www.dccconcepts.com/vamr/basic-cv-settings-for-zen-decoders)
    Any information related to CV tagged as "(In Advanced [Instructions])" in column "CV setting Range" would be helpful.
    Notably the light effects description (CV49 to 52) is to me the most critical missing piece of information.

    I've eventually prepared a decoder definition for the DCCconcepts Zen range (attached), based on existing JMRI decoder definition for the previous DCCconcepts range of decoder. A lot of guessing in there, but I suppose that the manufacturer has just been consistent with its previous range as regards CV mapping.
    Anyway to be tried.

    Thanks ... I assume that it will be included in the next beta release of JMRI.
    I will give feedback as soon as I can, Thanks

    Attached is a recent document released from DCC Concepts for the ZEN decoders.
    This may help check if the excellent work you have done is as accurate as it can be.
    Thanks again for your assistance.

    The decoder definition is already in line with this documentation (available on the manufacturers' website).
