Adding a Bachmann loco to RailMaster

[Chrissaf]

I've had nothing but problems with  e link can someone tell me is it true that only Hornby trains are listed as I cannot find my train from

bachmann Listed

RailMaster is a Hornby product, therefore only Hornby branded locos are included in the internal pre-configured RailMaster loco database. BUT THIS DOES NOT STOP YOU from using non-Hornby branded locos with RailMaster. It just means that you have to configure the locos manually. The Hornby loco database is just a Hornby 'time saving' aid for Hornby branded locos.

I have three times more Bachmann locos than Hornby ones, and they all work absolutely fine in my RailMaster.

.

If you need further 'How To' guidance, then these following threads cover the main aspects of adding and configuring locomotives in RailMaster.

.

For no loco found in the database i.e Bachmann locos, you need to follow the Tutorial for 'Manually Adding a Loco'. For 'non-sound' decoders, then just ignore the references to sound in the listed Tutorials.
