I was creating a "RTE" using the LSU. It appears there is a limit to the number of switches to align a route. Is this true? Is there a way around this perceived limit other than creating multiple routes to include all the switches in the route?

I've never used the LSU. But is it possible to create a "macro" that sends a series of commands in rapid sequence? If you create one macro for each route that should do the job.
How many switches were the limit?
Well, using the Legacy controller to build a route alone on by adding sub-routes, the is a limit of 16 total sub-routes and switches.
It would seem that after sixteen switch executions one could start a new route with sixteen more as a work-around.
Finally are you speaking of the LCS software as the LSU is for legacy system maintenance?
I am referencing page 71 of version 1.6 of the Legacy User's Guide and version 1.0 for the Legacy System Utility software.
I don't have any LCS devices.
16 is the limit for number of switches for a Rte.

Yes, I realize that I could use additional Rte to include all the switches I wanted to align for continuous running. I was just hoping someone had a more eloquent solution.
No I am referring to LSU, Legacy System Utility, where you can maintain the Control Base Database including engines, trains, acc, etc.
