I lost the manual for the locomatic, I don't remember if the locomatic can be wired in parallel with other feeds to the track or does it have to be in series?
As always, Thanks for the help.

I haven't head anything about the Atlas Locomatic system for years... It was a command system only for atlas engines and everything else on the layout had to have a choke installed to block off interference so the system could work,( Or was it the other way around,) Anyway it never really too off but it did lead to the choke blocking TMCC interference to the dcs signal. I was part of that years ago.
Back to the question.... Why not try Atlas? do they still have a forum or someone you could contact.
Jim Weaver was a great guy to talk to and went out of his way to help.
Are you still using the system Bob?
Gregg,
I'll answer your last question first. I am just now wiring my layout, I have two Alp 44s and an AEM7 that I was looking to run with all the features. However if it interferes with TMCC and DCS it's going to be a problem. Atlas killed the forums about 4 years ago. When you click on the contact us button on their website you don't get anywhere, that's why I came here. Jim was a great guy; sadly no one stepped up to fill his shoes.
I found a little more info, ,
