Thanks.. Yes I know, but I would like to hear from someone who has purchased one of these controllers, but it's proving to be a bit difficult, because I have yet to find anyone who has taken the plunge and purchased one.

This looks to be a state of the art piece of kit, and Yes it's pricey.. but is it worth that kind of outlay? as I have said before, I would love to have my layout on the controller screen or panel, but we just need to know more about this,

Puzzler..

Chris at Digitrains has also ordered the big separate indicator panel, but as yet Viessmann have not released that yet.
Its going to be a while.
Bite the bullet, go on, buy one and you do a review....you know you want to
What was that answer I hear you say.... !

Don't Tempt Me! but I'm in no hurry as I am still building my HO layout, and my partner is building her N gauge layout, I think whatever controller I get, her indoors will hijack it, anyone know how to put a password protection on a controller???

I don't think it stops you using the unit altogether. It is probably there to stop younger users accidently (?) changing things better left unchanged.

I'm not sure this has quite the level of protection you were thinking of?

Thanks for that David, but as I am getting a bit cheesed off waiting for the Viessmann stuff to appear, and not having a proper controller other than the Fleich Lok-Bos thingy, which does not operate all the sound features of my loco's, I have decided in the mean time to buy a Dynamis Digital Control System, at £85.. this is at a good price to give me what I want to keep me going until we learn more about the Viessy set-up.

I would be most greatfull for any tips on using the Dynamis. and correct me if I'm wrong, that the basic model does Not read the CV's

Keep Shovelling..
