MTH HO Consist
Posted by Bill O on Sunday, January 23, 2011 4:34 PM

I'm using a NCE DCC  system and wondered if anyone out there has figured out how to consist 2 MTH HO engines using NCE DCC?  It does not seem to work on Advanced consist and I'm not familiar with setting up the old type consist. Thanks Bill

Use Universal consist (Old style) with your NCE system. To make  it  work follow the consist menu on your handheld. It is  very similar to building an Advance consist.

NCE users typically have a little more problem with MTH consisting because the default is advanced consist, which MTH doesn't support.  Digitrax defaults on the universal consist so doesn't have a problem.

I've not had any issues with my Digitrax system.
