?If the AIU cab address is higher than 10 it will not work due to the limits of the command stations.
Correct, but there's further qualification needed regarding firmware versions:
If your Power Cab firmware (second screen at startup of your Power Cab, after the "Pro Cab V1.3" message) is:
- "V1.28C" the only valid addresses for extra cabs are 3 & (unofficially) 4.
- "V1.65" the only valid addresses for extra throttles ?are 3, 4 and 5. Non-throttle devices such as the NCE USB, Mini Panel or AIU can also use addresses 8, 9 & 10. However if you have ever done a System Reset, you will have lost all the extra addresses and be back to the V1.28C restrictions.
- "V1.65B" the only valid addresses for extra throttles ?are 3, 4 and 5. Non-throttle devices such as the NCE USB, Mini Panel or AIU can also use addresses 8, 9 & 10.
Similar ?comments apply to the SB3/5 with the range 2-5 for V1.28 and 2-7 for V1.65B.
