Reply to "DCS remotes will no longer made?"

Can the DCS Commander  https://mthtrains.com/50-1028 be used as an auxiliary control device with a DCS WIU DCS app configuration?   Unlike the DCS Remote, the DCS Commander does not use a thumb wheel that can be depressed.   It has a dedicated SELECT button instead.   The advantage being that its the select function of the handheld DCS remote thumb wheel that fails over time.  So I'm thinking of adding a DCS Commander to my layout so that I have a physical (control panel) to control my engines.  True, I won't be able to carry it around the layout but that's what my tablet\phone and DCS app is for.  I'd setup the DCS Commander in the corner of my layout where I usually sit.   Its relatively easy to swap control between a pair of engines on the DCS Remote as it is via the App.  However, having a controller dedicated to a third (I typically run 3 at a time) engine during an operating session would be ideal.   Has anyone added a DCS Commander to their DCS WIU/TIU?
