While operating my layout in RR, two switches appear to somehow be synchronized (see the screen shot below):

The two switches with the red squares seem to always either both be "straight" or "thrown." If one switch is changed by RR as a route is reserved, the other switch changes too even if it isn't in the route. Most often this isn't a concern however on occasion this can cause a lok to simply be stalled in a "wait" status because a switch is in the wrong orientation for the route. I cannot for the life of me see where in setup these two switches have been set to synchronize with one another. Note that I can change (as in the screen shot) so that they are orientated differently. Any thoughts?

Thank you for the insight Jean. I am confident that the switches have different addresses however I don’t believe I have checked their operation from my CS3 just from RR. A health check from RR shows no issues. Next week I’ll review their configuration on my CS3 and if I found no issues then re-establish them in RR. Another quick question if I may…how often should one update the RR software? I have not since I first loaded it a few months back. What precautions should I take before loading an update?

As you suggested Jean, I determined that I had an error in switch addressing in RR. As I continued troubleshooting my issue today, I determined that all was well with the way my CS3+ controlled the switches. I then turned my attention to addressing in RR. I must admit that addressing in RR still confuses me.

For this particular switch the MM address is 3. I had originally populated that address in the "address" field in RR. And that worked but did not do so consistently. I have now changed the addressing as is illustrated in the above screen shot and all seems to be working properly. I have much to learn! Thanks to both you and Martti for the help!
