It is always best to read the CV number to see what it currently is set to via the read button next to the number field (keep a note of this in case you need to reverse your changes).
To write the required CV, enter the number of the CV then enter the value, always check you are entering a correct value, this can be found in the decoder manufacturers instruction manual.  Remember these values vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. 

Resetting Decoder to default settings

By entering the values as shown below, the decoder can be set to its default settings.

After the reset is carried out it is advisable to check that the default settings have been applied by reading the CV values once again.
