Say it with me... MRC.I use advance consisting, which applies a consist address 01-126 (I usually use the last two digits of the lead unit) via CV-19. I can also set the direction of each unit in the consist on the fly, which eliminates the need to acquire each unit individually. It makes it possible to take a 2-unit consist out on a local, then split the consist on the road to let one engine do the switching, then put everything back together for the ride home. Just takes a couple of buttons.Why you guys continue to torture yourselves with Digitrax is beyond me... Other than "Well, Everybody's doing it!"Lee
As opposed to the Digitrax where you can't set the speed table except on the program track? I can get 128 steps out of a 28 step Bachmann decoder... Mmmm.But yes, I agree it's all what you're used to.Lee
Uh... You told Brian about that little detail, didn't you? ;DLee
It's not too big a deal, Brian. There's a separate pair of leads for a programming track on the MRC. You can either isolate a track in the yard with insulators, or just add a separate piece of track on a shelf like I did.I also wired in a dpdt so I can switch the track from program to test, and built the little tester rig that lets me check out decoders to make sure they're fully functional before I install them.Lee
