I only have 1 track and 1 TIU.

Will 6.1 let my MU hold their settings ?

I use the FSV button

I have varied success with 6.1 and FSV.  I can tell you the the FSV does work for the entire session the train is operating.  But when I power down and come back another day, all bets are of.  And typically it is the trailing or 2nd unit that is the problem.

I run with smoke off... The 2nd unit will start with smoke on.

I run with engine noise silent, or near silent.  The 2nd unit will start with 100% engine noise.

Trains will start to pull in opposite directions.  Barry is correct, hit DIR a few times and they seem to come back into sync.

Trying to turn off the smoke or turn down the engine noise of the Lash Up will only affect the lead engine.  In order for me to turn off the smoke and sound of the 2nd engine I must pull it out of inactive, then select that specific engine, turn the smoke and engine sound off, then return to pull the lashup out of inactive and select that... Hopefully all will work and I can select FSV once again to keep it set for that session.

That's my experience.  DCS S/W?  TIU H/W?   PS2 or PS3 engine problems?  My layout wiring?  Dirty Track?  DCS remote or batteries?  User error?  A combination of any or all of these?  Who knows.
