I've managed to lose the instructions for adding a TMCC engine to DCS. If anyone has a quick primer on how to do this I'd appreciate it.

Tom,
From page 38 of The DCS O Gauge Companion 2nd Edition:
To add a new TMCC engine, use the thumbwheel to scroll to ADD TMCC ENGINE and press the thumbwheel to select it
• Use the on-screen keyboard to name the TMCC engine. Scroll the thumbwheel to each character in the name and press the thumbwheel to add the character. Scroll to D on the bottom row, right end of the keyboard and press the thumbwheel to save the TMCC engine's name
• A list of TMCC engine addresses is displayed.
• Use the thumbwheel to scroll to the number of the TMCC engine. Note that this is not the DCS ID# that is assigned by DCS to each engine in the DCS Remote. It is the TMCC engine ID#
• Press the thumbwheel to assign the TMCC engine ID#
• If there is more than one active TIU, a screen will display requesting to which TIU the engine should be assigned. Using the thumbwheel, scroll to the TIU to which the Lionel Command Base is attached and press the thumbwheel to select it
• A message is displayed indicating that the engine has been added to the DCS Remote and the ENGINE SETUP menu is displayed
This and a whole lot more is all in "The DCS O Gauge Companion 2nd Edition", now available for purchase as an eBook or a printed book from MTH's web store site! Click on the link below to go to MTH's web page for the book!

Many thanks! I've subsequently found the 1st edition of your book and bookmarked the relevant page in case I ever have to reprogram my TMCC engines.
