Are you running trains by transformer or TMCC/DCS?
In conventional power(transformer) you need to raise power to 14volts or 16 volts .
Both The MTH & lionel operating track sections need that power. If you are running TMCC/DCS you should already be a 18 volts .
Both track sections can add additional ACC power to help in conventional power mode .
Read your directions .
I hope this helps
I am using an MTH Z controller. I’ve read all the directions. Looks fairly simple. Put it on the track and and press unload.
