I' m quite new to RailPro but after much research am dipping my toe in.
It was my understanding that if I bought a CI1 and installed the HC simulator and the RailPro Assistant, that I could "install" locos and sounds on my computer and it would be just like having the HC-2 - controlling the locos from my computer instead of the HC-2.
So i fire up RP Assistant, click pictures, choose an RR, choose a loco, click ADD, and it is shown on the window to the right (under "Download List to Handheld...".
But that's it.
There's never a list of locos I've "Added".
How do I know if it's working?
The Setup worked fine, I'm connected and signed in ok, but now what?
I'm working on installing an LM3S but I'm not all that comfortable at doing so (no 9 pin plug in loco I'm using, so I'll have to, shudder, solder tiny wires).
So does this system require an active LM3S to be "on the air" to show me something, or have I done something wrong install-wise?
I do realize that the CI1 is only useful if I want to control LM3S equipped locos, so having it plugged into computer should be irrelevant here - right?
