I'm sorry, but I feel like I have been lied to, I know many of you don't feel this way, but in the advertisents it clearly says that you can control up to 10 locomotives at the same time. Maybe their translators do a poor job and they don't have any lawyers looking at this stuff, but you can't sell a car with power windows, power locks, Air Conditioner, sound system, that goes 200 km/h and then have someone tell you, oh! but you can't use them all at the same time... You see, the car needs to be parked so that you can blast the sound system, but before you do that make sure the windows are down... I mean... It just doesn't make any sense....


Well, this is all just my opinion:

I like the MS. If for no other reason than, I can move about the room with the controller. Sure it has its limitations, but M* is headed in the right direction.

As far as running 10 Loks, …..with the CS you probably can. Lets face it, a lot of things that you would assume the MS would be able to do, you can’t do until the CS comes out. (We hope)

I was in the hobby shop yesterday looking at the 37726 DOUBLE UNIT DIESEL. If you read the advertisements, you are supposed to be able to run the two loks, together in a consist.

My thinking: ah..... a previously undocumented feature

Open the box and read the instructions yes the MS is referenced, (as a limitation). However, you can run them together as long as you do not have the MS. Same scenario with the Sound Post Wagon.

I think that M* suffers from what most business people refer to as: “Not invented here” syndrome. When you look at what is available in DCC, (Lenz, Digitrax, etc.) and compare that to the new MS and what I have heard about the CS, M* is playing catch-up.

I use a Digitrax system for my N-Scale and US HO stuff. Consisting, lots of functions, two lok controls on the hand held controller and Plug and Play decoder replacement right out of the box. As far as consisting is concerned, with Digitrax and I assume with Lenz, and I believe with the IB, is extremely simple.

Sure there will always be backwards compatibility issues, but I have to believe that if M* had partnered with Lenz or Digitrax, they could get a solution to the marketplace faster and cheaper.

I mean 600+ US$ and June delivery, “Maybe………”

If I was running Marklin, I would stick to making loks, rolling stock and track, etc. I would leave the electronics to companies that do this as their primary line of business.

Just my opinion.

Frank: I agree. M* is starting to move in that direction, but still try to hang on to a unique ownership. The new catenary is Viessmann, but with a few Marklin "unique changes". Would be better if they just endorsed Viessmann. Same with the decoders. they are clearly ESU, but manufactured with Marklin peculiarities. If they would just totally get out of the businesses they are not good at and concentrate on their core skills, everyone would be better off.

Having used the Lenz system for several years and run Roco etc I am completely happy about changing to Marklin. Their products are better quality and the only problem I can see is the way the bisiness is being run.
The MS I find very good to use and with the starter set is excellent value. It is clearly stated by M that this is an entry level controller and the number of Locos you can run is also stated. The previous digital M system may not have been ideal but it did run trains and was reliable and easy to use. Given time I see no reason why the new system will not prove the same.
I like many of us am not happy with the Insider Club and the delay in the CS but I still consider that M is the best manufacturer of model rail and I can not understand why those who do not like Marklin join this group which I presume is for Marklin enthusiasts.
I can understand why David wishes to run more trains but as said this is made clear from the outset. Perhaps the more powerful MS is a poor excuse to increase sales but that is the same for most products these days. Lenz bring out new decoders every year or so hoping we will all change to the newer model.
Unless the layout is split as I suggested I find I can only control about three locos at any one time so I do not see a problem.
David
Take care I like Marklin and will defend the worlds greatest model rail manufacturer.

I did send an email to Marklin techsupport and asked them what the difference is between the two MS, and why? let's see if they reply.

Are you guys talking to me?
The answer is: I originally joined this forum because I had a Märklin related question that nobody could answer [:o)]

Hi all,

I couldn't agree more with David DewarSmile.

It is all a matter of personal taste I would like to add.
After comparing Märklin products with those of other manufacturers I came to the conclusion they still have that special quality.
I'm confident they will develop a nice CS ,maybe after some teething problems with the software ,like so many automobile and aircraft manufacturers have experienced.

Best Regards
Guus

I have no problems with anything Marklin is doing frankly, and being new to digital, I am quite excited about expanding on it. My only beef is with the Mobil station in the starter set being completely and unnecessarily castrated compared to the stand alone model. That is poor marketing in my opinion, hardly a reason to quit modeling the worlds finest model trains.

Please don't misunderstand me, I agree 100% with what Sam said...

"I have no problems with anything Marklin is doing frankly, and being new to digital, I am quite excited about expanding on it. My only beef is with the Mobil station in the starter set being completely and unnecessarily castrated compared to the stand alone model. That is poor marketing in my opinion, hardly a reason to quit modeling the worlds finest model trains."

Yes I have looked at the other brands, and guess what, I would rather pay more and have a quality product than pay little for a s***ty one...

I guess I'll keep doing what I do best... Looking for a solution to this problem, checking out this boards, helping whenever I can....

It is nice to be important, but it is more important to be nice...

Hi all:

Talking NEW SYSTEMS TROUBLE - here's another one. Came to it by chance when testing locos with my little Grandson's Mobile Station. Just take two of M's NEW digital locos - 37970 Mikado and 37991 BigBoy.
Well, M gave both engines the VERY SAME ADRESS (one dealer told me M does such frequently), in this case no.40 - very clever, congratulations !!!
Especially since they are American models and there may be customers who will buy both locos ... plus a Mobile Station ... or even a $$$ Central Station, perhaps ...

Well, now you can easily change one loco's adress - say the Mikado gets adress no.06 (just nice since she's a H6 by designation), and as long as you run her with your CU6021 everything's fine.

But never try to operate this Mikado with an now "alien" adress via your brand new Mobile (Central) Station. She runs, but - as we all know since long - all those nice icons are naturally gone, and ya can start your own quiz which button releases what ... biggrinbiggrinbiggrin

Or stay with M's original factory adress, get your Mikado-icons back and run Mikado & BigBoy simultaneously ... [xx(][xx(][xx(]

Or - worst of all - always put one of them away, vice versa ... biggrinbiggrinbiggrin

Well done, M. And no CS for me, thank you [}:)]

I thought that the way the new MFX decoders worked was that each decoder had its own unique serial number and the decoder and MS or CS just talked back and forth using the serial number? Consequently there is no "Address" in the conventional sense, to have conflicts.

John, have you reported this to Marklin?

I think everyone would be interested in the cause of your problem.

Regards,

Frank

Agree with Frank. Your story , John, doesn't fit into the puzzle I thought began to come into shape.

From your talk about address, I take it neither is mfx. In that case you should not register a new loco by address; instead you should choose the loco from database, and then change the address. In that case you will maintain the icons, and the text. Depending on the decoder, the address is changed automaticly during operation, or with dip-switches inside.

Regards,
Lars

Frank, reported problem to two different dealers - they've burned the midnight oil but unfortunately no one knew a solution for this. Reporting to M is useless, just ask our David Dewar - for his numerous mails he never received a single answer ... [xx(]
BTW, only BigBoy is MFX - Mikado is equipped with standard 6090 decoder.

Hi John. Must solve this somehow. Your non mfx address can be changed using the MS...this next bit I have not yet tried but will do if you wish.....the new address should still show the icons that were there originally.
Let me know how this goes and I will change the address of one of my locs and see what happens.

David, that's what I (and dealers) have tried. New address on Mikado is no problem at all, but NO icons available, then ...
Thanks for your offer - please tell me your findings

Many Thanks Smile

John. I changed the address on my BR V 60 which has telex couplers front and rear and the telex icon is still there on the new address as is the bulb icon for the lights.
If you want to email me and let me know exactly what you are doing to changed the address I will compare it with my effort.

A faulty MS in the mix will certainly cause confusion, considering we are all rather confused already. Glad to see your problem resolved.

David Smile - seems you're greatly impressed by it.

Well, there's still a long way home. Should they really release it in the last quarter 2005 it will become 2006 til we get our hands on the very first production run. Those customers will be M's $500 guinea pigs. I'll wait and see ... Cool

I'll get one as soon as it comes out. I'll be a guinea pig, so I get it for my B-Day late 2005. It will be a cool present and my wife won't complain about the $500 that way. Besides I'm tired of constantly having to say "I'll wait and see", at some point something has to work right the first time around.

Looks like I too will be a Guinea pig, as I just placed a pre-order for one from Ajckids.com.... I like the Mobil Station a lot, but the 1.2Amp limit is it's biggest problem, and the CS should have no such limit! I figure if I'm gonna be digital, I need to do this 100%..
