I need to modify my statement. I have a Bluetooth equipped Legacy AC6000. I have found that if the engine is on a track that has a Legacy base connected, then when the app is used the engine operates as a LionChief+ would except for controlling the pitch of the bell and horn. Any adjustments to the other various sounds are maintained when the engine is run at a later time using either the app or the remote. This is how LionChief+ engines work as well. However, if my engine is run on a track that does not have a Legacy base attached the app works differently. Without the base connected, the Legacy engine starts up in Conventional mode when the power is turned on. (LionChief+ engines don't do that, they wait for the signal from the remote or app). When either the remote is turned on or the engine connected in the app, the volume settings to not revert to those previously selected in the app. Each of the volume settings must be readjusted in the app each time the engine is turned off and on again. The same would be true for the smoke setting. This makes the app less convenient than when used with a LionChief+ engine on tracks that do not have a Legacy base connected.
