BOB RIMM 030717 posted:Santa Fe, All the Way: I agree with you! The problem is all the more daunting to me as I am a retired Electronics Engineer. I understand that it doesn't make sense that it's not working but I've invested several hours trying different ways to link the engine to the DCS system. I believe that it could be "operator malfunction" but without a way to look at the data stream it has be be done with the "trial and error" process. I'll be attempting to program it again later today and pass on the results.
Thanks

Try programming the locomotive to engine number 5 (or whatever you have free) with the Cab-1. See if works with the Cab-1. If so go to edit engine in the DCS remote, edit TMCC engine, edit address, change address number to 5. Once it's saved try running it with the DCS remote. Either running the engine with the DCS remote or Cab-1 it's still responding to the TMCC base.
My guess is there is an issue with the address for that particular locomotive in the DCS remote, especially since the other TMCC locomotives work fine with the DCS remote.
I run all my DCS and TMCC locomotives from the DCS remote. I'm often running a DCS and TMCC locomotive at the same time so it just makes my life easier.
