This vid has taught me a lot, and I can run a consist just fine now, thanks !

I have F7A #37 and F7B #38. I set #38's CV 19 = 37 to consist it with F7A #37. Is there any problem with this approach that I am missing? I have set up the various other CVs to configure #38's functions to work as desired.

I have a question about speed matching: So I’ve got an Athearn GP49, Athearn SD80MAC, and Athearn SD60E coming in the mail. All locomotives have Tsunami2 factory installed. Will I be able to consist them (or any two of them) together without speed matching (since they all have the same decoder and are from the same brand)?

They should run well together. Every locomotive is a little different though. If you have any problems then you can look into speed matching.

At 26:32 George explains how to program what functions are active on what locomotive, and I want to explain the math behind it a little better. To figure out what value you want to have for that CV, (I will use CV246 as an example) you go down the list from Bit 0 to Bit 7 and enter a 1 or 0 for each of the 8-bit values. On my locomotives at home, I only want F26 and F27 active, so I put a “1” at the 6th and 5th bit, and zeroes for the remaining bits. This gives me a binary number of 01100000. If I convert the binary number of 01100000 to a decimal number to get 96. Therefore, you set CV246 to a value of 96. Another example is CV22. I want F0f, F9, F11, and F12 to be active, so I put a “1” at bits 5, 4, 2, and 0. This gives me a binary number of 00110101. Convert that to a decimal number and you get CV22 = 53.

Yes these calculations are correct. On Page 12 of the Tsunami2 User's Guide we have a CV calculator. All you have to do it add a 1 to the bits you want on and it calculates just like this for you. Note that the calculation does not work if you are using Safari as your web browser. I use Google Chrome when using the calculator and it works well. We also have videos on the structure of a CV for those of you who need more information on this: kzitem.info?search_query=soundtraxx+cv+structure

This video is fascinating, but it doesn't cover in-throttle consisting on the TCS UWT-100. It fixes all of the problems of other types of consists, since it's all done in the throttle, and is transparent to the command station and decoders. You can easily switch cab with a couple of clicks to make functions work properly.

If setting up the Advanced Consist with a NCE Power Cab at home, will the consist function at the club with it's own Command station? It seems as you describe at minute 22 that the consist lives in the memory of each decoder eh?

Yes the consist lives in the memory of the decoder not the command station.
