Thinking about buying one of these for use with a Cab-1L/Base-1L system. Would like to hide it in an out-of-the-way location.
Is there any reason I cannot leave it in conventional mode with the voltage at max for use with TMCC? Let's say the Powermaster is address ENG 50 and I want to control ENG 2, if I set the CAB-1L to ENG 2 the Powermaster will ignore all commands and just sit there with the output at 100%?
I am trying to avoid touching the command/conventional switch on the Powermaster if possible.
I should mention that the layout in question already has a block system for conventional control, so I understand that conventional engines must be stored in de-energized blocks!
Thanks in advance.
