+I would recommend keeping D8 as an output as most boards have a relatively strong pull down resistor on this pin to assist with startup. This makes it harder to use as an input.
+(As a very simplistic overview, NodePortType Determines if the port is Input or Output, Pi03_Setting_options determines if the output will be digital, PWM or a servo drive.) See also [[:users:Dagnall53:ESP32Differences|ESP32 Setup]]

+When set as a Loco, the code expects LEDS connected to 3v3 and the Back or Frontlight pins (D2 and D5). Currently the "fixed" nodes cannot have their phase altered using the Rocrail Rocnet Programming PI02 tab. The illustration on the left shows a Loco Version using a small "wemos" 8266 board with an external DAC, and a RC Servo too DC motor interface. The illustration on the right shows a PWM driver, which is smaller and more efficient than the RC servo option.\\

 Changing the Loco address **can** be done with this interface, but care needs to be taken to ensure the programming interface loco address and the loco address stay in synch.
-To change from a Short Loco address to a Long loco address, First set the Loco "long" address to the Current Short address. Then change the Loco so it reads the Long address, and then chang ethe Loco address to the desired Long address.

 Set the kick start CV65 to a value so that the motor reliably starts without a visible kick. If it kicks noticeably then lower the value. If it does not start, increase the value.
