250BOB Posted January 1, 2016 Author Share Posted January 1, 2016 My first sound steam loco on Fairfield Jnc., Finally bit the bullet and purchased a Locoman 8F sound decoder from Locoman at DC Kits. I am very pleased with the quality and will have lots of fun with it I'm sure. The video is already posted in the DCC sound section....one or two of you may have seen it there. Bob .

RMweb Premium pylonman Posted May 26, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 26, 2016 Hi Bob. Great layout, plenty of interest going on. I was particularly interested in the Touch cab side of things, and I would be very grateful if you could advise me. I have the Lenz system, including the 23151 unit and I have just bought an android phone, which can use the Sourceforge, JMRI Engine Driver app. I'm not quite sure I understand how your system works ?......... it obviously does, and very well. I notice from your video that you have the usb, Ethernet, and xpressnet sockets connected on the 23151. Is there any chance you could expand on how you connected it all together and configured the system ? Regards Keith Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium PaulCheffus Posted May 26, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 26, 2016 I have just bought an android phone Hi TouchCab only works on Apple devices currently no idea if the new developers will support Android in the future.

RMweb Premium pylonman Posted May 26, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 26, 2016 Hi Paul. Yes thanks, I understand that Touchcab is for apple products. The basic set up for the android system, I'm guessing, would be the same or similar. Regards Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Digital Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Hi Bob Layout looking good, enjoyed your latest videos. After years of listening to sound enabled locos on various layout including my own. It made a refreshing change to watch some without sound. Very relaxing. Regards John Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The USB cable plugs into the laptop, but rarely use that facility, if at all. The white cable goes to the wireless router. The top black flat cable goes to the lzv100 black box I had to buy a particular router from Argos to get it to work, but once I plugged it all in and downloaded Touchcab app from iTunes, it was a piece of cake. Just set the settings on my iPhone to the router and it was all live. Just programme in each loco and set them off. Hardly ever use the lh100 controllers, except for programming. Ask me all the questions you want Keith, it took me a bit of understanding at first until the penny dropped. The bloody router was my problem, and until I bought the Argos one for £20 it wouldn't recognise any other router. Ask away. Bob Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold big jim Posted May 26, 2016 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 26, 2016 I use an old sky router and that works with no problems, I think it's actually a netgear one. I tried a spare BT homehub 4 I had and that didn't want to know at all Here are some pics of how mine was initially set up, there are some more pics and a vid in the next page of my thread http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/69543-big-jims-roundy-roundy-shed-layout-scenics-underway/?p=1769680 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The TouchCab application doesn't require this. Cheers Paul Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
