GREGR, you still haven't said how the TIU and PowerMaster are hooked up at the same time. I don't know what "passive mode" is. You have the TIU powered up via the Aux input but no track power to TIU and TIU connected to the track for DCS how?

To hook up a TIU in passive mode, you connect the outputs of the TIU to the track, for example Fixed 1 Out. You do not connect anything to the TIU Fixed 1 In. The TIU is powered by an Aux adapter. Track power is connected directly to the track, so in this case, the Powermaster is connected directly to the track, not to the TIU. You would connect the Powerhouse to the Powermaster, not the TIU.

Thanks George that's what I was missing! I can do that. I'd like to to get better control of conventional locos and PS1 locos. If I can't do that with DCS right now, I guess I'll have to use my TPC400. You say I can control the TPC400 with the MTH app by addressing it like a TMCC engine? I know I can use Cab1.

And thanks GREGR for all your info.
