The thought of building a car with an IR transmitter has been kicked around in engineering for some time. The Cab-2 would be able to program the module that transmits the IR info once entered into the Cab-2.
Basically, configure the Cab-2 with the data you want transmitted, set the car to the same ID as the loco, press a Cab-2 button, and IR data will be configured by the Cab-2 and then be transmitted by the car,
Wow, Jon that sounds great and a good way to provide the function of the older non IR Transmitter Engines! 2015 Catalog? Just Kidding, but it would open up those engines for the LCS and shut up a great deal of opposition to LCS.
Thanks again for your input and trying to keep us involved of what is going on as much as possible!
