Hello All,
I just ordered a RS-232 splitter cable that connects my TMCC base to my TIU while also allowing me to connect the WIU to the same TIU. Everything seems to be working fine except that after I get my Lionel TMCC CNW Dash 9 added via the DCS App it will run for a little and then if I refresh the app, it will slip down into the inactive list. I try to reload it again but it will not come out of the inactive list, works perfectly fine on the DCS remote. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Landon Eshbach

Landon,
That's because the refresh is the app's equivalent of a DCS Remote READ command. Because TMCC and Legacy engines are not able to respond back with an acknowledgment to commands, they always look to a READ or a Refresh as being on non-powered tracks. Therefore, a READ or Refresh will alwys sort them into the Inactive Engine List. By the way, the same is true of all lashups, DCS or TMCC/Legacy.
To move any engine or lashup from the Inactive Engine List to the Active Engine List, do as follows:

That did it! Thanks Barry!
