I have test the MS2 on 24088 feeder track but not working.
The MS2 must request new 60113 Connector Box only or plug into the CS2. |

 Forget the conector box part...i just found the answer: "For K Track. This box is for connecting a transformer and up to 2 Mobile Stations. Dimensions 96 x 85 x 40 mm /3-3/4" x 3-3/8" x 1-9/16"." So my other question is: Is it possible to plug to the Feeder Track 24088 MS" in the first socket and the MS1 at the second one? Regards |

Hi Steven! Tks But they say that 60113 "is for making connections for a power pack or transformer and up to 2 Mobile Stations (60653)". What you´re saying is that i will not be able to upgrade my layout with the MS2 just by plug it to the Feeder Track 24088  I thought that it would be simple as swap the devices  i mean just disconect MS1 and connect MS2 |

You need two old MS1 to connecter the 24088 feeder track or 60115 box.
But you need 60124 10-pin to 7-pin adapter cable for connecting a second mobile station to the 60115 Connection Box or 24088 feeder track. |

Hi, can somebody please help? Steven said that it´s not possible to plug and play MS2 to feeder 24088, but the plug on the MS comes with a 10 pin connector, ans the socket on the 24088 connector box also have 10 pin connection:  So is it possible to plug, MS2 to the Feeder Track 24088, and play? The thing is that my layout im 4000km away from me since i´m in Finland (where i bought the MS2) and the layout is back home in Portugal, so i didn´t had the chance to try it. tomorow i will be at Frankfurt and if something elseis needed to plug the MS2 to my track i may try to get it there. |

 It is NOT possible to use the MS2 in connection with the 24088 in any way. Per. |

No. The MS2 does not work at all with the 24088 feeder track. And you cannot use a MS1 as a slave to a MS2. AFAIK, you can use a MS1 and a MS2 together only if they are both connected to a CS2. The MS2 cannot be used with the CS1.

Thanks FMS for asking the question and everyone else for clarifying. I have a 24088 making its way to me from India. Glad to know its useless  I had been hoping to do away with using the spade connectors. Tell me that the 24088 will be of some good - like it works with CS2. For MS2 then any alternatives to the 60113 connector box and spade connectors? Alok

Both can be used with CS1 and MS1. Unscrew the box from 24088 and use it like a 24188 ... 60113 contains the processor that creates the digital track signal. You can use a 60214 instead of a 60113 ... |

I hadn't realized that the processor from the 60113 was built into the 60214. So if I used a 60173 booster with the 60214, then the booster would plug into the tracks as well in addition to connecting with the 60214 via the 9pin cable. Using the 24088 as a 24188 is a good use although not what I had originally planned   Alok
