TMCC Conventional Op - What am I doing Wrong?

So you're trying to run it in conventional? If so, the program run switch should be in "run" for the E-unit to cycle. If you have it set to "program" (or "prog") and it's not moving, it may be locked in neutral.

Thanks Harry, but it does sequence in RUN.  It doesn't sequence in PROG.  As I think it should.  I added a picture showing it in "Forward".  The upper headlight doesn't seem to work on the lead unit, maybe just burned out, or is that telling me something?  Markers change form red to green as they should, so that is why I am saying the E-Unit works correctly.

Is there a TMCC Command Base in the room that is powered up when you are doing the bench test?  The TMCC signal is a radio wave and can travel quite far.  If the engine detects a TMCC signal, it won't run in conventional.

The PROG setting is for programming the unit into the TMCC or Legacy remote. That's it. The engine is not supposed to move. Slide the switch to RUN and it will move in both command or conventional modes. That is how they are designed.

Bob - I live in an apartment, so not aware of any other train guys, but who knows?

Chris - I have tried it both ways, Run first, then Prog to see if that would "help".

Is there a way to "clear the memory"?  However, It does see to know I am in conventional.  If I shut it down, when I restart, the sequence starts in Forward (not Neutral) with no 3-8 second delay for the Railsounds.

BTW neither the lead or trailing unit "move", believe each has it own speed control board.  Just can't figure it out since the E-unit is "cycling".  It getting late on the East Coast so signing off for tonight.  I will check back tomorrow.  Thanks to all!
