@gunrunnerjohn posted:I have pretty much the same setup Lou. I have a bench setup with the TIU, BASE1L, and my transformer. Both the layout TIU and bench TIU are indeed #1, I find that much easier to manage.
Problem is the time an effort of always having a current backup copy of the one remote. I've done this on occasion when things get really screwed up, but it's time consuming. The remote backup and restore is painfully slow!
I have a separate remote just for working on the bench that I add non-resident locomotives to, I can just clear that one to start fresh whenever I like.
It usually only takes me less than ~15 minutes to backup and clone a remote. But I've only got 35 locomotives stored in it .
