Dear Dave and JMRI Users Group,

OK gang it's "show and tell time."
Following the Digitrax instructions- SEE IMAGE 1 BELOW- I've substituted DCS240 for PR3 as the DCS240 has the same USB connection as the PR3.
I've followed the various steps 1.-6. IMAGE 2 corresponds to Item 2 in IMAGE 1 (the instructions).
But then with step 7. there's some questions ?
See IMAGE 3 - If I select System connection "Loconet PR3," (since the DCS240 and PR3 are the same) the Serial Port window automatically populates with cu.usmodemDtrx60F1. If I select any of the other Connection options, which don't really match anything like a DCS240, the serial Port window shows (none selected). So I cannot "select the serial port" and enter a number similar to the "Location ID"? shown as stated in Step 7 of IMAGE 1.

Perhaps the Loconet PR3 and the cu.usmodemDtrx60F1 Serial Port are fine and I don't have to "enter" anything?
The reason I ask this is I'm having trouble with WiThrottle and was suspecting that the USB connection between the MacBook Pro and the DCS240 was being done through the LNWI and there was some cross talk duplication and cancellation happening. I wanted to make sure the DCS240 was talking through the USB and not through the LNWI. I think I've convinced myself that the USB connection is OK, but I wanted get an answer from you Digitrax-JMRI "Gurus" on this question.

I'll go into the WiThrottle issues after this one gets answered.

THANKS!
Robert Diepenrbrock?
