Please NOTE: Your quote = I now know from your above post that I should not touch my Z4000 throttle handle(s) when running a Postwar or Proto 1 engine on that portion of my layout hooked up to the TIU fixed voltage channels. When running the Postwar or Proto 1 engine there, I have to keep the voltage of the track at 18 volts at all times.
For heaven sakes that is not what I said. LOL You can run PS 2 and PS 3 on Fixed one and NOT move the handle off 18 volts.
If you set it to 18 volts with PS 1 or Postwar (conventional) they are going to take off like a rocket. Use the second handle on a different loop isolated from the first loop and run them. You can simply move the handle. Use Fixed 2 for that loop ad control them via the handle.
Send me an email and I will give you my cell number and try to talk you thru it.
