First let me say how impressed I am with the workings of LC-DCC. Apart from the usual learning curve errors, it has so far worked as advertised with no surprises.
In this, my early days use, I have used the Android Bluetooth application on a 7 inch tablet to control my locos/accessories (turnouts). However my turnout addressees/ports are programmed sequential (due to use with 2 previous controllers), for example;
turnout 1 = 9-0
turnout 2 = 9-2
turnout 3 = 9-4
turnout 4 = 9-6
turnout 5 = 10-0
turnout 6 = 10-2
turnout 7 = 10-4
The LC-DCC controller works fine when the buttons are appropriately set, however
when setting up the LC-DCC A,B,C,D,E buttons they end up being just labelled with the assigned address i.e. 9,9,9,9,10. with no port number shown, which is confusing.
In future release would it be possible to either label these buttons with a user assigned name/number, or at least show Address-Port number on each ??
Being selfish
, 8 accessory buttons displayed instead of 5 would be a great advantage, I know screen real estate is a premium but most layouts have more that 5 turnouts I suspect.
Thanks for a great program Alan
