I’m in the process of wiring my layout and installing the Lionel ZW-L and incorporating my CAB1L for command control.
I’ve watched the Lionel ZW-L instruction video but have a few questions.
The ZW-L is able to be controlled via command using the CAB1L. I understand that once the ZW-L is programmed the four built in Power masters can be addressed by the CAB1L but how do you address the Legacy engines.
Is it possible to program one of them, Output A for instance, in command and Output D in conventional?
When I had my layout powered by Powerhouses and TPC’s I had the ability of operating in either command or conventional. To address the track in command I would press the boost and full power would go to the track and address the individual engines.
Do you do that with the same way ZW-L ?
Can I address the other ZW-L power master in a conventional mode like I could with the TPC’s ?
I plan to operate Legacy or TMCC command engines on the outer loop and conventional engines on the inner loop. How can I do that?
Does anything change with respect to operating Legacy or TMCC engines in command?
The instruction manual only includes information for the Legacy 990 system and the CAB 1 but not the CAB1L. Too bad they did not update the manual to include that information.
I’m sure to have additional questions once I get more information.
