Actually, the momentum will work in the TMCC setting with 32 speed steps, they're using the same RxLC control board as stock TMCC locomotives.

Truthfully, I never run that way as I really like the finer control of 100 speed steps.

According to the manual for the CC-M that is not the case...

The Cruise Commander MTM product line is unique in that the R2LC firmware revisions may vary, as the R2LC is not included in the kit. As a result, to be compatible with the R2LC-C08 to R2LC-C11 and R2LC-C13, the option selection sequence is slightly different as indicated below. As a bonus, when using R2LC-C11 & R2LC-C13, the momentum commands are repurposed to adjust the speed step selection: L = 32-speed steps, M = 100-speed steps, and H = 100-speed steps. Note: The speed step selection can change only when the throttle is set to zero.

Speed Step Selection
The default speed step selection is 100 as shipped. The 100-speed steps are linear. The 100- speed steps start at a lower threshold, thus the motor is operating at a lower initial voltage with fine adjustment as the throttle is advanced. The momentum and stall features are not applicable and do not operate. The speed step selection is stored until changed, and survives power cycling. To switch Speed Steps do the following:

Activate 32-Speed Steps: AUX1 + DIR + AUX1 + DIR + BRAKE
Activate 100-Speed Steps: AUX1 + DIR + AUX1 + DIR + BOOST

While the second part is not clear, my experience with Lionel R2LC08 boards is that the momentum doesn't function in TMCC mode either.  Maybe this only apples to the CC-M though.
