Piko Booster

[frankando12]

Hi.
Has anyone had a problem setting up a Piko Power Booster . I have a post on the Massoth Forum about my problem trying to set mine up, it is quite entailed, so I thought I would mention it here. I end up keep getting a Loco Engaged screen on my navigator . I set a test track up and now I can not even get the system to run without the Booster in the set up. I keep getting the Loco Engaged Screen on the Nav. I have tried setting things back to factory setting but still nothing works. I know power is going to the track as two of the test locos have sound and the sound works when placed on the track. If someone is familiar this my problem I would appreciate some advise. Thanks Frank

Hi
Think I have found the Problem with my Booster and Navigator . I changed the Tethered Wire I was using . Had an old LGB cable a lot longer and older, but as soon as I changed the Problem went away . I had tested all my data cable with a data cable tester when my problem first developed and it showed that all were ok, but the one I was using must not have been making contact properly in the Splitter or Navigator. I am hoping the problem is fixed as I have now tested several Loco's and all seem to be working.

Well done. Glad you sorted it. Funny how its usually something simple - its just finding it that is a pain.
