Hi Marty,

I am thinking you left out the word "not" from your reply where you say "will respond". I think you meant "will NOT respond".  If I'm wrong, I apologize. My experience with control of Legacy Powermasters with Cab3 has been that the Halt button doesn't work with them set up on Cab3 as TR's.

Mine did respond to the HALT command from the App.  I tested my ZW-L and my ZW-C.  I don't have Legacy Powermaster either but I assume they work similar to the ZW-L.  I maybe wrong about the Legacy Powermasters but I don't see how they wouldn't.  Seems that programming should be the same.   Just make sure you are holding the HALT key down for the length of time required, set up in the "Cab3 Setting" of the App, to trigger a HALT.

Maybe @Dave Olson could confirm or tell me I'm just blowing steam.

Marty, you are correct that the Halt button DOES work with Legacy Powermasters! I wasn't aware of the button depress time setting. Changed that to the minimum and I now have working Halt button on Cab3.  Thank you for the info.

Yep!  I know a lot of people were concerned about the static 3 seconds so this is a great addition to the App.  I know that @Dave Olson is listening along with his team to make these improvements.  An advantage of the App is correcting and changing this easily.

Thanks Marty.

Any word on a RELEASE DATE for the “BUG” Fix for the “TR” & “TRAIN BRAKE”  Issues on the BASE3 / CAB3 APP??
