Hello from Tonbridge

Hi all
Have been hanging around the site for a few weeks so thought it time to say hello.
Having never owned a train set in my life I decided to take the plunge (Hornby TV show to blame)
I have a 00 set on a 6 x 4 board and running DCC.
My operating system is the Digikeijs DR500 using the Z21 app on a tablet.As someone who does not understand electronics I haven't got far with track operating side of things so things have stalled a little at the moment.

Welcome Gary. I was new and I started with DCC. Being a technophobe I’ve kept all control/wiring simple. I was chuffed when my loco ran first time. Im sure there are lots of members on here who can help you be as complex or simple as you choose.

I do not understand the setting up of the Z21 or the DR5000, being over 50 and a technophobe. Got to try and find someone local to help sort out setting up points motors and control
