Reply to "Wi-Fi DCS Update from MTH"

From a "Fully Authorized Dealer and Service Center"

After watching over a dozen public videos on You Tube as related to learning, MTH-DCS, Wi-Fi. This is the best as of January 11, 2016. As more You Tubers purchase Mike's Wi-Fi, this number will grow.  

This video is where the steel, meets the rails, with no sand.

I am working with a Model Railroading friend and we have the 5.0 up grade done, to the TIU & Controller, been to the Apple Store to get the APP.  We have followed these steps, on page 5 of the manual and have watched this video & we are up and running.

1. Attach the antenna to the WIU.

2. Set the MTH/HOME selector switch to MTH.

3. Connect the WIU to your TIU with a USB cable (included*).

4. Apply track power through the TIU.

5. Plug the WIU into an AC wall outlet. 

6. Wait 1 minute for the WIU to initialize. When ready, the PWR, WI-FI, and TIU LEDS will be lit.

7. If you haven’t already, go to the iOS App Store or Google Play Store and install the app on your smart device. Search for MTH DCS to quickly find the app in either app store.

8. In your smart device, navigate to Wi-Fi settings and connect to the MTH DCS network. The network name (SSID) and network key are printed on the label affixed to the bottom of the WIU.

9. Open the app and tap RUN MY TRAINS.

10. Tap CHOOSE OR ADD AND ENGINE near the top of the screen and follow the prompts. 11. After adding an engine(s), tap START UP and enjoy running your trains in Wi-Fi DCS.
