Reply to "Running Lionel command in DCS environment"

Not sure what bluetooth you think you got going. Your engine does not have bluetooth. Neither does your TIU or your Lionel command base. Your engine also isn't Legacy.

1) Make sure your command base is connected to the power connector that goes to your OUTER rail.

2) Place the program/run switch on your engine into "program".

3) Place your engine on the track

4) Power up your track (18v AC)

5) Press "engine", then then number you want to assign, then "set" on your Cab 1

If you do not hear the horn of your engine, check that the volume control is turned up fully. If you do, power the track down, move the switch to "run", place the engine back on the track, power up the track (18v AC), press "engine", then turn the big red knob clockwise to start the engine running.

Does the engine work in conventional mode?

Ok well I am not a complete dumb@$$  I do have bluetooth and I do have a legacy engine.  However, after reading the above I thought it might be a joke.   So I reread the top of the thread to see where K-line came from....and I see maybe I am just a partial dumb@$$  I forgot, back in December when I started this thread I referenced  a K-line engine.   However, I passed on that one, forgot i mentioned that, and actually purchased a Lionel Legacy engine which I realize was not clear when i picked back up the thread last night.  So I apologize for sending everyone on a wild goose chase.  However, the same still applies.

With then steps above with Lionel Legacy loco. I get nothing....but yes it works in conventional mode and bluetooth.

Magicland I do appreciate the direct response.

I did plug directly to wall and run wire to outer rail.
