REV L TIU stuck in between addresses

Connect the TIU's Remote Input port to the bottom of the remote with a 4-conductor (curly) telephone handset cable.

Next, add TIUs to the remote so that the remotes has TIUs 4 and 5. Now, press the READ button and see what TIU Is found. Be patient, this may take a minute or two.

Post your results and we can proceed from there.

Thanks for the quick response, Barry!

 

I did what you said, and ended up getting a response on TIU 4, even though the version command was reporting on TIU 5. For yucks, I tried to change the TIU address to #1 against entry #4, and ended up getting the same errors, but the TIU seemed to relocate itself to #1. Another change back to #5 worked without a problem afterwards. Kind of curious why it ended up in that weird state, but now that it's working there's nothing left to diagnose...

 

Now onto my next frustrating adventure with DCS - getting engines back into the remote that were working a month ago but are refusing to be acknowledged by the remote. I repurchased the DCS Companion this morning (had an earlier copy, but changed email addresses and couldn't find any trace of it), and will now go thru and see if there's any advice on this issue...

 

I'd spend more time with the trains if things were more stable...

 

Thanks again!
