That's a great video. could you how to set up Loconet devices. as it is not shown in the manual . I am trying to get 3 and 4 Aspect signals working and have only managed to get a 2 aspect going with the Z21 maintenance tool. I am using an Uhlenbrock decoder 63410 Z21 App does not seem to communicate with the decoder when programming,

Does Z21 consisting force me to have ditch lights turned on in trailing units ?

I'm a bit confused about the MU setup. At first I thought it automatic then I see you entering 5 different speed samples. I'm not familiar with DCC. I just know PS3 is so so much easier. I just wish it would be licensed to other MFGs as I've had to move to half O after moving overseas.

What no layout is that in background ? And do you guys have a book on that layout?

[@richmondrailfan8444]

Does it have to have Blue Ruth DCC

Please how do you connect this to a PC or a TV?

[@captainquint2003]

Do you still need a DCC chip in the locomotive in order for this to work?

[@qora01m]

Yes, of course.

Hmmnn. That app interface looks a lot (like identical from what I remember) like the esu systems. Cool though..
