I am trying to run three different RailKing PS 2,0 steam engines , issued circa 2000. If I run them individually they operate without a problem. If I put more than one engine on either of my loops , my DCS handset can only distinguish one as active.
If I enter a command to "ALL Engines", all three respond en masse but only one will respond to specific, individual commands. All later issue, Premier engines work just fine in any combination.
I am stumped. My early thoughts are:
1. It may be a function of age. Early engines communicating with a much later issue TIU and handset.
2. Early RailKing engines may not have had specific, individual IDs.
I await the wise counsel of my DCS fathers and brothers as to how I might solve the problem.
PS. A shout out to Pat Petros (Pat's Trains) for introducing me to MTH and DCS in 2000 by selling me these wonderful engines.
