Hello!!! It is the local MTH Genius again here.
I got lucky enough to Buy a Used Remote from a member of the New Jersey Hi-Railers, and the remote is set to Version 6.1,while the TIU,which I also bought from the Hi-railers, I am using for the first time, so I am unsure of the Software on it.
I keep getting the "Out of RF RANGE" message on the Remote.
It will not add engine.
When I do a read, it says 1 TIU found,no active DCS engines.
Is this the reason?,because the TIU is a different version than the remote???
I tried my 2nd TIU I bought from Marty Fitz awhile back, and it is Version 5.0,no luck on that one either.
If I do a reset remote,will this snyc it up to the TIU,or do I have to go online and update the TIU to the latest version to match the remote????Or what about reset TIU?? I need to learn how to do these updates myself sooner or later!!!!!
I finally do have a Windows computer to do them on,what do I need now as far as cables and everything to be able to upgrade my stuff on my own???
I told you guys I wanna learn about these engines, and I am starting at the beginning again. I sold almost everything I had last spring ,vowing NOT to get into O gauge trains anymore. But my life is not complete with out them,so here I am back at trying to get started up again.
Any advice greatly appreciated as always.-Kenny B
