Reply to "DCS 6.10 Upgrade - Learn from my mistakes and save yourself some time and aggravation"

Brad TroutOGR Forum Member

Thank you all for this thread! I did my first upgrade to TIUs and remotes via USB to serial adapter and the upgrade itself went smoothly, up to a point. (I was at version 4.x previously). These are an old TIUs (serial only).

Now, I have 2 tracks that aren't working (on 2 separate output ports on 1 TIU). I can't find/run engines on these two tracks. When I use the engines to do Signal check I get 10s. But when I try to get voltage it reports 0.0. Yet with multimeter I get 18 V. Likewise, lighted cars sitting on the tracks are just fine. One of the engines works fine on another track (just to rule out engine issues).

Did those two outputs somehow get fried during the upgrade?

Any suggestions? What happens if I do a TIU reset?

Thanks, as always!

Brad
