That should make it clear that I know very little, next to nothing about this product. I did review some of the positive and negative reviews of this on Amazon. There is perhaps much I don’t fully understand, but one comment which was a positive one indicates this: “It should be clearer to the mandatory use of the switching power supply unit 60061 or 60041.” I am not certain this answers your question. Sometimes reviews do give some useful insight or help you ask the right questions You might want to check out all the reviews because this is a substantial investment for you and it helps to understand as much as possible. As always, Marklin support seems lacking and the more you know helps in the long run. You probably already have checked this out, but perhaps others might enjoy reviewing the information in this document. https://www.marklin-user...3_Manual_EN_final-lo.pdf Best wishes with this, let us know how it works for you. Take good care. Hope this is useful to you. Zme

It even offers two methods, control panel or control desk. There is a you tube video that you should check out to see if it does what you want, Marklin Video. It is video number 6. Regards, Roger
