DCS WiFi Questions for Store Demo.

Legacy control of Legacy engines?  Not likely, Like DCS that's propitiatory, patented, etc, etc not something Lionel would give up or MTH would have without lawsuits galore.

Your other questions are very good one and I'm looking forward to the answers.

Lionel has already posted the Legacy protocols. A little cooperation is not out of the question. It was mentioned at the DCS users meeting. I just want to confirm the possibility. Of course it's up to the 2 manufacturers. 

I did not know that.   Ok, I take back my original statement. That would be a interesting development.

Marty,

Speed indication between 2 devices accessing the same engines did not track but control Was parallel. I assume this is normal but wanted to confirm. 

That's correct. It's just like using 2 DCS Remotes.

Also the premium version due in April adds TMCC control for Legacy and TMCC engine and even possibly Legacy control of Legacy. 

That's my understanding, as well, from MTH R&D.

Control of Legacy engines in Legacy mode has been mentioned and is a very real possibility. Keep in mind that Lionel has touted that 3rd parties are being licensed to use Legacy codes and that MTH is a partner with Lionel via Lionel Corporation tinplate products.

Much like the DCS remote one must add the engines into the App. It doesn't auto fill in the roster. Is there any way of cloning between 2 user apps?

Not at present. That feature/function is also planned fro the Pro version of the app.

Does MTH have a bullet point sheet that we can discuss with customers?  Does anyone have suggestion for bullet points if not?  I hope to download Barry's latest book but would really like to have some discussion points.

The complete user guide for the WIU, expected to be a download from MTH's web page for the WIU by the time the device itself is generally available, will detail the installation and setup of the device. I don't know if (or really expect) that it will detail the use of the app, as well.

As far as a "bullet point" list is concerned, a quick search of MTH's web site turned up this.

Of course, The DCS O Gauge Companion 3rd Edition contains everything that you would need to discuss with customers regarding the DCS App's installation and use.

Everything that you need to know about DCS, including the DCS App, is all in MTH’s “The DCS Companion 3rd Edition", available for purchase  from many fine OGR advertisers and forum sponsors, or as an eBook or a printed book at MTH's web store!

Barry

Thanks. I hope to get the new DCS Companion today. As for the other points thank you. 

Im looking forward to helping out my LHS. 

I hope MTH might see a value in compiling a talking point sheet for the LHSs. It might be advantageous.
