Title: Bachmann and MTH
Post by: roundhouse foreman on April 16, 2018, 07:12:15 PM
Mr. Bachmann,

So I now a have an MTH Mohawk for my ho layout. Sweet. When I put on my setup and try to start up or turn on the system, the other eight locos on the tracks skip and sputter and hum and click until I tip the MTH off the track it is on and let the other trains start or come on. Once that happens I can reset the MTH back on the track it is on and all is fine. The MTH waits for f-3 to start like it is supposed to and operates normally.
My setup is a Dynamis Pro with a 5 amp booster.
If the MTH is supposedly dormant until individually called up where is the voltage or current disruption coming from? Why is it so much of a load it trips the booster, but is ok after the old on off?

Dear RHF,
I have no idea...
I do know that the MTH system is proprietary,
so perhaps a call to them is in order...
Good luck!
