The new Lionel J3a Hudson is my first Legacy engine that did not include an orange memory module. I have been trying to muddle through the Legacy Manual in an effort to understand the Lionel instructions on how to manually enter the Legacy engine info. I have only been able to ID the engine number as 16 (the old TMCC way using the cab 2) and ID the engine as Steam. I cannot figure out how to add the NAME, "Legacy engine" , and Railsounds type. Does the engine have to be powered up and set in program mode when manually entering the information needed to make the cab 2 see the engine as a Legacy engine? Is there some easy to follow step by step instructions available that might clearly describe how to enter the information necessary to make my Hudson run as a Legacy engine?
Between the non existent 9v battery terminal / RS drop out on switches and now this PIA trying to enter the Legacy info manually is causing buyer's remorse to set in. And no, I'm not going to add a sensor track to my GarGraves layout.
HELP and thanks in advance for your assistance.
