Definitely, each switch must have an adress defined (same as the CS3 address). If it turns Off and On the CS3 then your are in business. Then, knowing the address and looking back at your ECOS screen you will find where it is displayed to make it easy for the next locos. When you connect Rocrail to your CS3 (Ethernet cable) and set it correctly then the simple check is to turn the power Off and On from the Rocrail screen.

So in your case, how to find the loco number assigned by your ECOS, I cannot help (CS2 shows this number in the loco properties screen) but since very small address values are used, you can do the above procedure using address 1, 2, 3, and it is very likely you will find yours before arriving to 10.Rocrail by default will always select entry and exit of the loco to/from the +ve side of the bridge block (the house side of the bridge).

The controller must be 'MCS2' type (for CS2 and CS3) and. One key difference: the loco number is set by the CS2 or its equivalent. To do this in Rocrail you must go to tab 'FILE' then select tab 'CONTROLLER' then select your controller and push the 'PROPERTIES' button.
