Reply to "Legacy - DCS Bridge: Running MTH trains with the Legacy remote proof of concept"

I hope I am almost there getting the Legacy-DCS Bridge working.  I built the Legacy-DCS bridge as described by Professor Chaos.  I down loaded the libraries, successfully compiled and uploaded TMCC_DCS_RFM69 to the bridge.  A test oval is set up with both a DCS TIU and a Legacy base station with the serial to PDI adaptor connected to my Legacy-DCS bridge.  When the Legacy-DCS bridge is plugged into the PDI bus it blinks several times.  A TMCC engine was tested on engine id 58.  It functioned correctly on the test track with the Legacy controller.  A PS2 engine with engine id 58 was placed on the test track and functioned correctly with a DCS handheld controller.  The PS2 engine was shut down and I attempted to turn it on and increase the speed with the Legacy controller.  Nothing happened.  I then turned on the PS2 engine with the DCS controller.  It was idling and I tried to increase the speed with the Legacy controller and Nothing happened.  I also tried the front and rear couplers with no success.  The Legacy-DCS bridge occasionally blinks but not when I was sending commands.  Any suggestions on how to successfully complete the project?
