New issue last night:
I powered up my transformers and the PWC ZW controller had a green light, accepted Legacy signals (indicated by blinking light), but power to all four channels was -0-. It was as if the "halt" button had been hit, but it wasn't.

Has anyone else experienced this sequence of events?

FWIW, after a long dormant period I took my ZW-C out and is using for accessories and lights. It does have the updated chip for Legacy but I've had about 3 or 4 incidents where it has inexplicably shut down like the "Halt" button was pushed. Similar to the before new chip ZW-C. Since I don't have trains on it I am less concerned but found it odd after working flawlessly before I put it away last time and now having a few hiccups.
