### 1/5 — Not worth it.

*2022-02-10*

I have a Athearn genesis UP 1111 I set the engine number to 1111 on my digitrax remote. When I say connect it’s giving me “No Connection” for every engine I try

### 5/5 — Great app 🚂

As close as it gets… virtually

### 5/5 — Awesome, worth the money!

Awesome app. I tried WiThrottle and found this one’s control stand setup is friendlier and enables smoother, more realistic running - even with jerky Tsunami decoders. JMRI doesn’t list this in their list of throttles, but it IS supported (the widget shows up in JMRI’s WiThrottle Server when the app is connected). After getting this app set up I’ve relegated my Power Cab to fine tuning and a power supply - if you want to get a taste of an AAR stand, without the bulk of a Protothrottle or want to run control stand style and can’t afford ISE’s price tag, this app is a good buy. My only items of input are that it could use dynamic brake control and sensitivity adjustment (prototype control stand colors would be a nice touch as well).

### 5/5 — Great App!!

*2019-03-29*

DXR is a great app!  Next best thing to the ISE proto throttle, but doesn’t cost a fortune.  I love the flexibility that is built into the app.  You have the functionality of the ISE, but can have the throttle up and running and set how you want it in just a few minutes.
