Reply to "Engine Not on Track"

GHD,

I use 2 TIU's in the super mode. They are rev L and 4.3 I believe. I use 2 remotes and they are 4.1.

All DCS TIUs and remotes should be at the same release if DCS. If not, results will e unpredictable.

I'll disconnect one transformer from the TIU channel and then simply install short jumper wires to that channel on the input side of the TIU from the remaining transformer. I believe it's the multiple transformer thing that raises the safety concern

That's still not good enough:

  • You can have one transformer connected to the input of one TIU channel, or connected to the input of two TIU channels. Either way is fine and is safe from disaster.
  • Regardless, you should only have one TIU channel's output connected to one block of track, and that block of track must have its center rails isolated from adjacent blocks.
