In looking thru this, does it run conventionally with your TMCC/Legacy system unplugged from the wall? (I may have missed that post if you responded about it.)

OK, I thought I understood when I quickly read your message.  But now rereading it I am confused.  You say to un-power the Command Base by unplugging it from the wall.  If I do that, I do not see how I would be able to issue any commands to my TPC 3000 to set it up as for Conventional Running and further if I previously set the TPC up for running as conventional and stored that function using the SET button, power down everything, unplugging the Command Base, power the remainder of the equipment. Now the Question.  How do I inform the TPC that is in a "conventional run" state to increase track voltage since the Command Base is not functional to issue the commands to the TPC?  Am I missing something?

I think what you had in mind was the removal of the wire to the Base Antenna Lug so that there would be no indication of a Command Base and therefore the Locomotives would default to "Conventional Running".  Does this make sense or am I off in left field?
