I have a question about ASC2, STM2, Remote-only Fastrack switch and Remote/Command Fastrack switch.
I have 3 older Remote-only Fastrack switches and 12 Remote/Command Fastrack switches.
When connecting the 3 Remote-only switches to the ASC2, it reserves 4 TMCC ID's. I connect those switches to ASC2 (green, red & black) with TMCC ID's 1-3 and ID 4 reserved for a 4th switch and also to the first 3 positions on the STM2 (yellow). I would like to not have to skip ID 4. If I program a Remote/Command switch to ID4 and then connect it to STM2 input 4, will there be conflict when I select switch ID 4 on my CAB2?
My assumption is that there will be a signal sent over the LCS bus to the ASC2 for switch 4, but nothing will happen since there is nothing connected for switch 4 on the ASC2. I don't know enough about LCS to know if perhaps there will some sort of error generated and the CAB2 signal for switch 4 will not be received by the switch.
I am in the process of totally rebuilding my layout and do not have any way to test this.
