Ok Charlie B, no problem.

Here's CV29 on my Lenz 0521A decoder. The default value is 6. Means Loco operates DC or DCC and on 128 step speed.

Bit . . .Value . . . . .What it does
1 . . . . . 0 . . . . . . Direction: Normal
1 . . . . . 1 . . . . . . Direction: Reversed
2 . . . . . 0 . . . . . . 14 or 27 Speed Steps
2 . . . . . 2 . . . . . . 28 or 128 Speed Steps
3 . . . . . 0 . . . . . . Loco Operates In DCC Mode Only
3 . . . . . 4 . . . . . . Loco Operates In DCC Or DC Mode
4 . . . . . 0 . . . . . . Always Zero (0)
5 . . . . . 0 . . . . . . Factory Set Speed Table
5 . . . . . 16 . . . . . .Custon Speed Table
6 . . . . . 0 . . . . . . .Use CV1 As Address
6 . . . . . 32 . . . . . . Use CV17 And CV18 As Address
7 . . . . . .0 . . . . . . .Always Zero (0)
8 . . . . . .0 . . . . . . .Always Zero (0)

Scenario: Start with 0
If I want the direction of the loco reversed, add 1
If I want 128 speed steps, add 2
If I want loco only operating in DCC mode, add 0
If I want the factory set speed table, add 0
If I want 4 digit loco address add 32

This gives the number to be set in CV29 (35). Now just use your control station to program that particular CV to the correct value.

All these CV settings are (should be) on the instructions that came with your decoder. If you haven't got them, most decoder manufacturer websites carry pdf downloads of their own brand.
