How can you configure RocRail to work with the CS3 plus?

While RocRail indicates that the CS3 is a tested system that works it is not listed in the controller setup screen in RocRail.

Do you just use the Ecos configuration?

If I remember correctly, there should be an option called mcs2 for the CS2. The CS3 should also work with that, since the protocol to talk to the CS is pretty much the same.

Tried the msc2 option in RocRail and it works fine with the CS3.

2 Years after the last message here and probably a new version of roc rail.

I've just tries to add my CS3+ to roc rail and there is no msc2 option in adding a new controller!

But

In the roc rail online guide https://wiki.rocrail.net/doku.php?id=mbus:cs3-en there is a bit about Note: Only direct TCP communication with the CS2/CS3 is supported in the Rocrail Forum.

The protocol I've discovered to add is mbus

Then under Rocrail Properties>> Controller Properties>>Interface

needs to be set a type> TCP

Hostname > (your Cs3 ip address) : 15731


OK then restart roc rail

Connected hopefully:-)
