Hi all,
Just upgraded to a massoth 1200z from a LGB MTS3 with 2 Navi.
My question is:
With the LGB MTS3 and 2 Navi I could boot up the system and go straight to the consist menu and run trains.
BUT with the 1200z and 2 Navi, it won?t allow me to go straight to the consist menu and run trains as one of the locos has an X next to it. Its not until a have selected the loco on its own that I can use the consist menu.
The 1200z is new with v2.61 software.
Thanks
Tony...

Whenever you consist a loco all the settings such as speed steps should be the same in what ever you try to consist..
reading the manuals help with most things like this.. :D

Much as I love Massoth kit, their manuals are not always the most intuitive things to try to read through.... can't help with the consisting because I've never tried it, but I'm sure someone will pop up on here with some step-by-step instructions for you to follow.

Jon.

I think i should add a bit more.......
I have 16 consists on the navi's which were being used on the MTS3. When i select 1 of the 16, (some have 3 or 4 locos on them), 1 of the locos is marked with a X. i can only use that consist number once i have selected the loco marked X on its own first, then back to the consist number. Is this correct, because MTS3 didnt require this.
