Railpro installation video

Tim - I'll post that video hopefully today.  Glad you found it informative.  I really ought to update it because Railpro has changed quite a bit since then.

Paul - That's correct.  Each locomotive module needs to have the full motor load current set in order to be able to consist correctly.  It is an automatic setting that takes a few seconds.  The video above shows how it's done.  Each locomotive has this value measured for it specifically and the system will use that to adjust the current to each locomotive motor in real time.  The locomotives send feedback on how much they are individually pulling, and the controller then will adjust the other locomotives in the consist to equally distribute the load.  In most cases it works very well and is not dependent on user input at all.

Hopefully Ring can scale the technology down to N-scale for you N-scalers!

Wow! I realize this video is almost 3 yrs old but, as a newbie, it is a great selling tool for Railpro. I did not dream how easy one can set-up the various functions on a locomotive.
I also had pictured the HC as somewhat larger than it is and the graphics are great. This is why I joined this group.
I spent many years as a military instructor and very much appreciate your delivery in clear, concise English.
Thank you very much for this video.

Good video and is one of the things that convinced me to adopt RailPro on my layout.

Thanks for posting it.
