Operating an MTH Coors Silver Bullet Train Set using Lionel Legacy Remote

Good question....following

-Pete

Not going to happen I suspect.  The Legacy remote won't talk to DCS equipment at all.

Are you using something like a PowerMaster or the ZW-L transformer to do conventional control of the track voltage?

I am actually using a ZW-C with 2 180 watt powerhouses, so the ZW-C acts like what a powermaster would I believe.  THe ZW-C has given me normal track voltage when running in conventional mode and I haven't had any issues running the MTH set including getting the FYS to work using the bell/whistle combinations when running in conventional.

OK, the ZW-C does give you that functionality, it's important to note the equipment you're using so we can provide informed answers.

If you can run it from the handles on the ZW-C, it should run from the remote using the PowerMaster emulation feature.

Yep, completely understand.  Although I do not know what the PowerMaster emulation feature is or how to get it to do that.  Didn't know it had that feature.  Any help with instruction on that would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks for your help!

This is the bible for that unit.

Lionel 6-32930 ZW Controller User's Manual.pdf

GRJ - just read through the entire booklet but nothing regarding a powermaster emulation feature.  For a new guy like myself, perhaps there is other language that I'm not associating correctly?

Start at page 8 of that manual. 

Controlling the ZW Controller with your CAB-1 Remote Controller

That starts the section where you run the ZW from the CAB1, that is the PowerMaster emulation. When you're setting the ID for the throttles, you use the TR (Train) button on the remote, not the ENG button. Tinker around with it and you'll see what I mean.

ok will do, thanks.
