Reply to "TMCC LOCOMOTIVE NOT RESPONDING TO DCS INSTALL"

Dave

Thank you, all good questions.  I will answer all of them.

I placed it in the pgm position because Eric did that on his video.  After adding the engine he did say to place it back I the run position, which I did.

I use the DCS system only.  Too expensive to buy both a full Legacy and a DCS system.  Bought DCS so I could run both MTH and Lionel engines.

You are correct in that "on" means it's plugged in to a 3 prong receptacle.

I have one TIU and when I reach that point, since I don't have more than one it defaults to the only TIU it sees.

One thing Eric said after he returned the switch to Run, when you look at your list of engines, the TMCC you just added goes in the inactive list.  When you select it, it then goes to your active list, and you scroll up and select it again.  I don't think that option was provided for me.  Nothing I did appeared to change its inactive status.  Let me ask you this.  The wire you have to attach to the U connector and the outer track.  That wire connection is a direct connect set up?  Attach one end to the track and the other under the screw wheel on the base?  It does not have to route through the TIU at any time?
