Nick-892336 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 I have the Select but I would love to be able to run everything off a laptop or iPad. Can anyone tell me what I need (to do)? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rog RJ Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 You need an Elite or eLink. The Select cannot be used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yelrow Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 .Nick, elink and railmaster package, is cheapest way, but you have to buy new, as Key supplied is non transferable. Hattons/Rails, may have on offer. Hornby do offer new, when in stock. Have a shop round, worth a look. Elite also works with RM, but you still need new RM, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

96RAF Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 @nickplease use the three dots context menu to delete your multiple duplicate posts.You can upgrade the 1-amp power supply to the 4-amp unit. P9301 is the code for the EU plugged version of the 4-amp supply, which can resolve many perceived problems seen when the 1-amp supply is used.Look in the Outlet link at top of page for the eLink +RM bundle - was £85.

Goathland Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 Many thanks for that. Is the 1 Amp PSU important for me (I live in Germany)? I am using a Toshiba 15V 5A PC power supply with the correct 6.3mm power plug on my e-Link with no issues. A quick search of the forum for "Toshiba" will elicit the details.

96RAF Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 Many thanks for that. Is the 1 Amp PSU important for me (I live in Germany)? A 1-amp PSU will barely boot up the Elite much less run many locos. You need the 4-amp brick PSU used by the Elite or suitable and cheaper Toshiba alternative.You can get them with a continental plug. The Hornby unit is P9301.
