MTH N-6B caboose

If you have to hold the button on DCS it is momentary also.  I guess we need to know more about your set up?  Command environment for TMCC/Legacy does not put an off set on the track  So what is the CAB-1L controlling?  I assume in DCS your in conventional sending a bell signal.   G

My setup:

Basic DCS system with wifi. Using TIU for track power and control of MTH engines.

Cab1-L hooked to the track, No cable between TIU and command base.

I did this though. On track 2 I put a MTH engine running via wifi, and a TMCC engine. Everything works except the caboose. Hitting the bell on the wifi turned on the engine bell only. Grabbed the MTH hand held control, Set it to track 2 voltage mode, hit the bell button and it worked.

So I 'm guessing the bell button on the wifi is addressed to the MTH engine, The bell signal on the hand held must be on the generic track voltage part of the system. I guess ( if I had one ) I could put a conventional transformer on the setup and it would work on the caboose. I'm also guessing that the TMCC is also addressing the engine also....

Yes If you are in command mode your not sending a DC offset, your sending commands.  TIU to MTH and CAB-1L to TMCC engines.  So either add a bell button, or use Variable Track to send the DC offset.  G
