Lionel Legacy Cab 1 problem?

USCGRETOGR Forum Member

Hello,

I have some Lionel Legacy engines, TMCC and a few command control engines. Where applicable they are programmed into my remotes as Legacy, TMCC or Command Control. Recently (for the first time). I started up one of my Legacy engines from the remote and it showed it as a Cab 1 without the icons. It still went through all the functions, but without the icons. I engaged the TMCC, Command Control, and Cranes all now without icons. What happened? I do not know, perhaps someone can shed some light. I have since began the re-program process, but do not want that to happen again. Please advise as to what might of happened. Thanks.

If you press the INFO button, you can scroll through the settings and restore it to Legacy control and bring back the keypad icons. You can also just load the orange module if you have one and it'll do it for you.

Thanks John. I assume that the orange module is your remote backup module. Shame on me for not keeping that up to date. I do have the orange modules for my Legacy engines which makes re-loading easier. However, I will go through INFO button on my remote to restore Legacy control to bring back the keypad icons on my remaining engines (4) at this point. Thanks again.

Almost sounds like the CLR button was pushed for the Data Base.

If you have the LSU program, you could do a back up of the entire contents of the base.

The Orange module is the one that comes with most (but apparently not all) Legacy locomotives. It's engine specific and will load the description, road number, and operating mode.

All of this stuff can be loaded from the remote, the orange module just makes it faster.
