This CV is temporarily used for beta testing. Only mess with this CV if you find the decoder talking to you and saying there is a [[{{NAMESPACE}}:Short_Circuit_Protection|motor or light short circuit]] when there isn't actually one. TCS allowed the trip point to be programmable by beta testers because we are assuming not all locomotives act alike and will need customizing. Once we get feedback from the Beta testers we will modify the default values, thanks for helping us figure out the best values!<br>

CV111 controls how much current is needed to trigger a short circuit when the locomotive is sitting still. Additional amperage is allowed for when the motor is running, that is controlled by [[{{NAMESPACE}}:CV_112|Short Circuit Motor Trip Point Offset]].

Each value adds .35 Amps to the trip point, the value can go up to 15. giving a total range of 0 Amps to 5.25 Amps.

Having a lower trip point while sitting idle allows a short in the lighting circuity to be caught faster, giving more protection to lighting outputs, however if its too low a loud sound or having many lights turned on may give a false trigger.

NMRA CV 111 - Decoder Type Specific Version Number (Low Byte)

This CV is used by TCS to store information regarding the version of a specific decoder type. This CV is primarily used for decoder programming interfaces (such as JMRI) so the correct CV information for this decoder can be automatically found and loaded.

CV 110 and CV 111 are both used to store a unique identifier for a specific locomotive type from the OEM.

Revisions or releases of the same locomotive may be further identified in CV 248.
