Hello,
I just purchased a Norfolk & Western 18" StationSounds Diner #1018 (item # 1927190). The diner will not remember the Legacy ID when the power is removed from the track.
My usual method for programming a legacy ID is to 1. remove power from track 2. switch to "PGM" mode 3. restore power to track 4. set ID with Cab2 5. remove power from track 6. switch to "RUN" mode and operate. This method did not work because the power is cycled between PGM and RUN.
I tried a slightly different method because I can reach the PGM/RUN switch without removing the car from the track. This method was 1. switch to "PGM" mode 2. set ID with Cab2 3. switch to "RUN" mode and operate. This method worked to set the ID, BUT once I cut power to the track, it loses the ID (and doesn't seem to recognize any ID, even the default 1).
Any ideas or do I need to start the return process to my dealer?
Any know of any similar issues with StationSounds Diners? I know the Legacy Alco PAs had a similar issue (2019 timeframe if I remember correctly).
Thanks!
