There is upgrade for the MS2 too.
The version is now 2.7.
So what is difference now in the MS2?
32 functions?

MS2s can get version 2.7 from the CS3 for several months now. So this is fairly old news.

Can't be anything big, considering how long version 2.7 is around now.

Definitely not.

I have enough difficulty now holding shift and pressing the buttons for the second page of functions on MS2.

For 32 functions you would have to be an octopus

They could change the way the shift button works so that you press it once to go to page 2 with functions 9-16, twice to go to page 3 with functions 17-24, three times gets you to page four with functions 25-32, and a fourth press gets you back to page 1.

On the other hand why do you need so many functions anyway? I rarely need to go to the second page of functions on my existing locos!

Today (2018-12-11) I saw Märklin's new starter set 29051 "Era IV"

https://www.maerklin.de/...rrpdb_pi1%5BnoPaging%5D=

If you scroll down to "Digital Functions" the Mobile Station 2 is listet for using 28 functions.

Does anybody know about anything - a software update, etc. - for the MS 2 extending the usable functions from 16 to 32? Or is this only a male print of Märklin at its website again?

They are just stacking the two locos functions, 2 locos with 16 functions each.
