Title: Dynamis Signal Loss
Post by: johnnyjt on February 06, 2009, 12:09:22 AM
Hi

Just got my Dynamis and I just love it!

I was wondering...

Can the Dynamis Controller be programed not to

stop loco or at least extend the stop time when

the base loses signal because controller was

pointed in another direction?

I don't have the dynamis but does the main unit really lack the memory to keep running the loco at the last command. I do know the ez command is made so if you have the ez companion and unplug it to move to another plug the loco keeps moving at it's last command until the controller is plugged in again. So the dynamis should do essentially the same thing but instead of the unplugging your just temporarily loosing the infra red connection

Yes you can. In the handheld control go to "system menu". "Edit trk timeout" set it to "no timeout" .With this setting you can shut the handheld off and the trains keep running.

Have Fun

I don't expect each system to be the same but this feature just kind of seems useless. Why would you want your train to stop when you put the controller down or any other thing that would loose signal like what is it protecting. But that's good it can be turned off and it's probably just my driving style that this feature seems useless to. For the dynamises price I would think it can do just about anything.
