Desire to run PS1 locomotives, the large articulated ones on elevated loops. Set up tiu tracks, using Fixed 1. Turned Z4000 on, powered up TIU, set the power for the Fixed 1 track at 22 V. used track button on remote to activate the TIU track. Have a MTH PS1 Y6 on the track with BCR installed in the tender. Appied 9 V, locomotive starts. Wait over the 60 seconds to charge the BCR, then use dir key to move the locomotive.
No problem - so far - the whistle button works fine. The bell button does not work, the tender coupler fires! When I hit the dir button to move in reverse, the bell operates, coupler fires and I can NOT turn the bell off. I even selected the PS1 feature on the remote, same thing.
Running 4.02 software.
Thought it might be the locomotive, so I swapped the Y6 for the Big Boy. Same thing.
What am I doing wrong?
The bell does not function and the tender coupler fires.
