RailPro Specific Help & Discussion / Re: LM-3S-21 Module compatibility with different manufacturers
« Last post by Smoke on Today at 02:06:27 PM »We can add Bowser to the list of locomotive manufacturers that are truly plug and play with the LM-3S-21.
The locomotives that I have personally tested and are plug and play with the LM-3S-21 are:
Athearn Genesis (MP15AC and SD60E)
Rapido (B36-7)
Bowser (SD30C-ECO)
I have been working with Tim (G8B4Life) on seeing if we can get a Scaletrains locomotive to work without any modifications and so far, no luck. We can get partial light outputs from the Ax functions, but not fully bright lights. I reached out to Scaletrains to see if they had any additional information but all I got back from support was "ESU is the only decoder that works". I did not receive a reply to my follow-up email where I included a bunch more information I have gathered.
