MTH DCS Problem

 Did it ever work right at one time ? Did you try Fixed One on the inside loop ?    If both run the outside loop without issue. I'd look closer at the track on the inside loop. Sounds like something on the inside loop is affecting the track signal. Do a signal test. You should have at least 7's to have no issues. Do you have any lighted cars on the inside loop ?   Are you using the track power on that loop to power anything else. Like switches or accessories ?    Lot of questions. Just trying to figure out your setup. 

Well, you are just about there, to solve your issue. You know it's not the TIU or before it. So you have to look at the loop itself. Like Dave C posted, connect the fixed one to the inside for a test. Also try disconnecting one loop and see if there's power leaking over from one loop to the other.

David,

Three things...

First, turn on the DCS signal for all channels: Menu/System/DCS Setup, press soft key AON.

Second, make sure that the red terminal of Fixed #2 is connected to the center rail of the inside loop and that the black terminal is connected to an outside rail.

Third, see if Fixed #2 Out works with the outside loop. If not, the problem is with the TIU's Fixed Channel #2.
