Does anyone have any experience with this program with the Lenz 90 ? If so I would love to hear about it. It appears to look quite user friendly and works with loconet?? Not quite sure so figured I'd ask since I getting around to this portion of things. Here is the link just incase you get curious like I did. http://www.zugdcc.com/zugdcc/ Thanks ahead of time for giving your experience and or just a look see.
I've never used it before, but checking out the site it looks pretty neat. Not to steer you away from this piece of software, but have you looked into JMRI yet? A couple of things to consider: Cost: $31 for Zug, $0 for JMRI ($31 isn't much, but every little bit counts these days) Support: Their forums haven't had a post since February, and they don't appear to be all that active before that. Support goes a very long way in my book. Either on the yahoo groups, or on here. Change: If you ever decide switch from Lenz to NCE/Digitrax/Whatever, you're stuck with this software that only supports Lenz.
Valid Points to ponder Thanks Todd, you bring up two valid points about the support going along way. A DCC system is an investment into our hobby; you have those systems quite awhile usually before replacement so steady proven support would be appreciated. Yes I noticed the same in the forum hadn't been used much at all. Although they did state this is new Software so I guess that would be expected. But then that is why I came here and asked if it were known I would find it here. Your second point about being confined to just that one system(Lenz). Well that could be viewed as a concern. But not the way I look at it. I see it this way about that portion. I'm using a Lenz in this case so if there is a program that will make computer control of that more user friendly and it only cost $31???? Ok If I buy and use a Digatrax Chief or something and there is a program for it in the same manner then I might go with that in that application. I figure they tailor the program for the system and the User.
