LCS Wifi - Should I Seek an RMA? | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

I am having a strange issue with my new LCS Wifi module and I’m wondering if my best option is to send it in for repairs.

In short, the Wifi Module doesn’t seem to talk to my Base 2.

The red light illuminates constantly if the Wifi module is last before the Base. However, the red light turns off in “no base” or if my sensor track/Ser 2 is before the wifi module in the daisy chain. When the red light is off, I can connect to the Wifi module via iCab.

Once connected to the Wifi module in the app, the green light is solid and the red light remains off. The green light blinks when I enter commands in app, but the train does not respond. Also, I cannot download the roster to my iCab app. (Err 5).

When using the Cab 2 remote, the red light blinks the connected devices (incl. Wifi) provided Wifi is not immediately before the base.

Aside from the powered serial cable connected to the base, I’ve tried a variety of cables.

Unlike the other issues I’ve read on this forum, my LCS Wifi connects to my device just fine in both Access and join to network.

What version is your Cab2 and Base 2?

If using a Legacy command base, it must have software rev 1.52 or higher installed.

Thanks for your reply. Base is 1.6

Tony, the best place to post is in this thread.

Personally, I'd do a factory reset and start over.
