Model Railroading > HO Rapido ATSF GP38 Beacon Update

Update from the 11-14-2024 HO Rapido ATSF GP38 rotary beacon issue.

On JMRI I discovered under, Function setting, at the bottom right of the page a box labeled "Wheel Sensor Configuration" Use output AUX 10.
AUX 10 is the function for the rotary beacon, by checking this selection the beacons began to function.

I than went to Rate for Blinking on the same page, top left and set "Blinking Effect" to 12 (my choice for what I felt looked best)
Performed this to all three units and, all are functioning.

Thank you to all that replied to the first Thread

Glad to hear it was something simple. Guess I should not be too surprised it was similar to the mis-programmed BN GP38's.
