Remote blocking certain addresses numbers

In only the remote, I cannot  add or move an engine to address numbers 29 and 30. But ok for 31 and higher. However, I can use 29 and 30 on my iPhone. But then the remote won't recognize them. 

A  remote reset  should fix that but as you know everything  will be deleted including switches etc.

Are you saying remote  IDs 29 & 30 are still shown as available to edit to??

The two IDs are not shown to be available to move to.

It's an old bug in DCS that has become considerably less common with the later DCS releases.

What version of DCS are you using?

I'm using version 6.0

Do you have a second remote that is working ok?

RJR  has a fix using the computer if you have a second remote. If not the only way to get the missing IDs back is with a remote reset.(everything will be deleted)

Just one remote.

Bob, Gregg knew where I was going by asking how many remotes you have.

Unless you have too much time on your hands, or have over 95 engines, the easiest course of action is to ignore the gaps.

You say these two IDs can be accessed from the wifi.  Are the engines associated with those IDs accessible under another address on the remote?

I can also confirm this bug still lives in 6.0. Fortunately for me, I have more than one remote and learned to back them up the hard way years ago.

Here' something else to try.  Use the program that is intended to export the remote's data to a wifi device.  Save that program to your computer.  Use a text editor program to look at the program. Don't send it to wifi.  Starting at the top, there are blocks of data for locos, in the order of ID#s.  Scroll down to 29 & 30 (I don't see IDs in the data; you'll have to decipher based on loco names.  What do you see?

Robert,

Use the program that is intended to export the remote's data to a wifi device.  Save that program to your computer.  Use a text editor program to look at the program.

To what program are you referring?

If you mean the Loader Program, unfortunately, that file will not be easily decipherable. No matter the intended destination for the file, the app or another remote, the file will look just like a clone file.

A legible file would be one exported by the app for importing into another app.

The export thing is beyond my capabilities at this point. Thanks for all the help.

Bob, I don’t download any thing myself. When I have system upgrades done by my local tech, I have him do the remote backup. He loaded the file on a thumb stick for me and I have that on my computer. I’ll have to figure out how to download the data if and when that day comes.
