If you are only going to use TMCC commands and not Legacy, then you don't even need a SER2.  You can connect directly to the Base-1's DB9 serial port.  In fact, I don't think it would work if you went through a SER2.  If you did I don't think the Base-1 would be able to recognize the commands.  As far as I know the Base-1 can only recognize native TMCC commands, and that would not be what it would be receiving if you went through a SER2..  I don't think any LCS module would work with the Base-1.  Rudy can confirn that.

Correct, the original Base1 aka Trainmaster Command System is not compatible with and of the Layout Control System/LCS modules. Base1L and Base2 aka 990 Legacy Control System will both work with all LCS modules.

Based on the original poster's needs, no SER2 required.
