Reply to "Running DCS and Legacy S Scale Engines via the MTH App"

Chuck KOGR Forum Member

Tom,

I don't see anything in what you describe that would create problem for adding DCS in the manner that I described above. The only issue I have is that my WIU often doesn't recognize my TIU when I power up the track, but it is easily addressed by briefly disconnecting and reconnecting the cable between them.

I do not have star wiring either BTW. I have 2 buses for my two separately powered loops.

I am sure many folks consider it unnecessary, but I loved the combination of unlocking all the features of my MTH F3's plus being able to operate all of my Legacy and TMCC engines via the MTH app.

Not to mention I was toying with getting an MTH Protosound 3.0 Std. gauge American Flyer Lehigh Valley brass piper repro as a Christmas train. I have since done so and use the WIU and TIU at this time of year to operate it on a track around one of my trees.
