Reply to "Conventional & Command Power Configuration"

It can even be be simpler. I largely ignore the difference between command and conventional, except in only one specific way.

Feed the track from the PowerMaster, fed by the PowerHouse. Use the keypad on the Cab-2 to select the address of the PowerMaster, using the keypad to punch it in. To run conventionally turn the knob up and down on the Cab-2. As @ThatGuy implied make sure that the Base-2 isn't powered up at this point.

To go to command remove any conventional engines then turn the knob up to 100% (18 VAC), then power up the Base-2, then select your TMCC/Legacy engine using the keypad, punching in it's address, then turn the knob to get rolling.

No need for either SPDT or DPDT switches to select power feeds if you do it this way.
