I just noticed this for the first time,first let me give you some more information,i have 4 independent loops all powered by separate 180 watt lionel power houses nothing else is powered by the 180 watt power houses,all of my lights are powered from 1 KW transformer,i have tmcc & legacy,the KW is plugged into a power strip along with the adapter for the miller enginering signs & the LCS track, all the power houses are plugged into a separate power strip whenever i power up the power houses, remember that they are all plugged into the same power strip,the green light on the tmcc base comes on as it should,as soon as i turn on the power where the KW,miller engineering signs,&the lcs track are plugged into,the red light on the tmcc base starts to blink constantly,if i unplug the lcs track,the red light stops blinking,it may have been this way all along but i just now noticed it,everything works just fine,but why is the red light blinking with the lcs track plugged in,then when i unplug it the red light stops blinking?,is this normal? I hope i have explained things clear enough,thanks in advance.

Don, I clicked on the link you gave it refers to the legacy base,so out of curiosity i went down stairs & checked the legacy base & while the red light on the tmcc base was blinking,one of the blue lights on the legacy base was blinking,if i unplug the lcs,the red light on the tmcc base stops blinking,& the blue light on the legacy base stops blinking also,plug the lcs track back on & both of the lights start blinking again,is it possible that the lcs track is constantly sending out a signal?

Bigdodgetrain, I did as you suggested & plugged the lcs track directly into a wall outlet & the result was the same,both the red light on the tmcc base,& the blue light on the legacy base blink ,i am in agreement with sinclair,it is the way these two devices are linked together,like i said before everything works fine,i just wanted to be sure this was normal. Thanks for your help.
