DR5000 with installed YD9401 upgrade. WWW server doesn't work, stuck until power off / power on #DR5000 #YD9401

 

Hello, ?I installed YD9401 to my DR5000. ?Upgraded both DR5000 side Atmel FW and YD9401 ESP32 firmware, config program version YD_Config-build-72.exe.

WWW server doesn't work. ?The first page seems to open, but any click after that stops the whole device. ?Power off / Power on restarts. ?This happens both in Ethernet and WLAN side.

Does anyone have any idea what to do?

Not certain, but you could add a second YD6016LN-CS which you connect via Loconet and split the YD6016ES-CS across the pair of them.

Re: Z21 and s88 yd6o16es modules

 

Best bet would be to but a YD6016LN-CS and connect it to the LocoNet on the Z21 black. You connect the ES modules into the LN Module


Many Thanks

Looking forward, need one to complete my block detection.

The DR5088RC will still be used, it is working flawlessly with the bias resistors I posted earlier on the forum.

Railcom with JMRI Reporters working on TCS CS-105 through Digikeijs DR5088RC

 
Edited

I was discussing RailCom and the CS-105 earlier. ?I had not seen anyone post about getting RailCom to work with JMRI Reporters through the Digikeijs DR5088RC and a RR-Circuits LCC-LocoNet Gateway on the CS-105. ?I was surprised to have just got this combination to work.

Here are the hardware and software versions of the components I confirmed worked together on my benchtop:
1. TCS CS-105 HW-Rev-E, SW v2.2.1
2. TCS B-106 ? HW-Rev-C, SW v1.0
3. DCC Specialties PSXX HW-Rev-C, SW Rev-G
4. Digikeijs DR5088RC - SW v1.4.2
5. ESU LokSound 5 DCC Decoder 21MTC #58429
6. RR-Cirkits LCC-LocoNet Gateway HW-Rev-D, SW rev-B8h
7. JMRI v5.11.2
8. Java v11.0.14
9. Windows 10

We just need that YaMoRC YD6016LN-RC to come out.
Re: DR4088LN-CS with DR4088CS some of my sensed blocks activate with just a touch of the sensed wire

 

I started another thread for the double tap wheel gap activation issue. It was solved by changing the default sensor delay in JMRI. As far as I know you cannot change any detection setting related to this issue in the YD7001 or the DR4088's.
?
The single rail activation does not seem to be causing any issues with the train detection its just weird.

Re: DR4088LN-CS with DR4088CS trailing blocks turn on and off when metal wheels pass over insulated jointer

?
Thank you for your response. As you indicated there is no where that I have found to add a delay to prevent these nuisance detections.?
I am using JMRI so I went to the sensor table/defaults/global setting and set the on/off delays to 200ms for all of my sensors. ?
This is working quite nicely and the panel display has a nice smooth look to it as the train moves from block to block.
I could have gone faster but I did not care for the look.

Re: DR4088LN-CS with DR4088CS trailing blocks turn on and off when metal wheels pass over insulated jointer

In software other than JMRI (or feedbacks other than DR4088xx) this ‘bouncing’ can be cured by increasing the feedback switch-on delay slightly, from 0ms to 25ms, or even 50ms. This creates enough time for the wheel to bridge the gap and move on before showing occupancy.

?

There may be a similar setting in JMRI that you can change because if memory serves correctly the DR4088xx doesn’t have any LN CVs that you could use to increase this switch on delay.

Subject: DR4088LN-CS with DR4088CS trailing blocks turn on and off when metal wheels pass over insulated jointer

?

Thanks in advance.

?

When running a train with multiple cars and a single engine the first block activate as expected when the engine enters it but then when the trailing cars with metal wheels cross the insulated jointer between blocks the trailing block activates for an instant. This does not happen with every car or with every block pair. I can track the activation using the YD7001 loconet feed back monitor, and the loconet monitor in JMRI.

The layout panel in JMRI also flashes the trailing block while the block with the engine remains solid.

?

I have three power districts one powered by the YD7001 and two DR5033 boosters. Each district has its own set of DR4088LN-CS and DR4088CS? with two 64 and one 48 sensed tracks.

?

For block wiring I have the sensed wire and the common wire connected to the track with both ends of the block rails isolated from the adjoining blocks.? I insulate the common wire also.

The sensed wires go to a DR4088 input and the common wire goes a terminal block. These are powered from the command module or booster main bus outputs.

?

My hope is there is a setting in the YD7001 or JMRI that would allow me to reject the false detections.?

?

I tried the 470 ohm shunt on one of the problem sensors but it did not help.

?

I think this has been happening for a while but I just started paying attention to it.

?

My equipment is about 4 years old and bought mostly at the same time.?

?

Thanks for you help?

Re: YD8008 with YD6940 and Kato Unitrack turnouts

 

Karst

Thanks for this advice I'll upgrade my PSU.
?
Before reading your post I'd actually come to a similar conclusion that it was a power supply issue. I was originally powering two YD8116s together with the three YD8008 from the 12 volt power supply. I moved one of YD8116s (which was controlling relays) to another supply and everything worked as it should do with no missed turnout switching. I was even able to reduce the pulse times down to the defaults of 30ms.

There lies your problem, our experience is, that the Kato's connected to the YD8008/6940 combo need 15V PSU of about 400mA minimum.

Reason: Both YD8008 (1.2V) and YD6940 (0.7) introduce a voltage drop. So effectively your Kato's only receive 10.1 Volts. That's not enough.

Yes they are. Although a YD8116 can supply the current, it provides steady power, which destroys the Kato's ;)

Re: DR4088LN-CS with DR4088CS some of my sensed blocks activate with just a touch of the sensed wire

 

I discovered tonight a wiring booboo. When I switched to tortoise switch machines I powered some of the frogs with straight booster power. So when the engine goes over the frog the power is not sensed by the DR4088.
?
That is causing some of my double tap CS low /high activity.
?
I do not think it is causing the single rail sensing though.?
?
Tomorrow I will pull all of the tortoise plugs and see what happens.

Re: YD8008 with YD6940 and Kato Unitrack turnouts

I took my advice from the YaMoRC website.? It clearly states that for Kato points you need to use the YD8008 with the YD6940 to convert to 2 wire from 3 wire.? I had originally thought about the YD8116 but the website says that it's not suitable for solenoids. Although the Kato is a solenoid I agree is nothing like the heavy duty ones you refer to.

Re: YD8008 with YD6940 and Kato Unitrack turnouts

Graham,

?

I wonder if the YD8008 are the correct switches to be using with Kato turnouts. The common use for the YD8008 is power hungry solenoids such as the Peco/Seep style that need a real thump of current to move. The Kato items I have dealt with work reliably with a much lower power requirement.

?

With the YD8008 being a CDU there can be a delay in the capacitors charging up (time varies on the power supply) and this may be why you are having challenges. Personally, I would have thought that the YD8116 would work perfectly for your turnouts.

Subject: YD8008 with YD6940 and Kato Unitrack turnouts

I'm having problems with the reliability when using this combination with iTrain. They occur mostly in automatic mode but do also? when manually operating individual turnouts or when using the track route button in iTrain.

?

The issues mostly occur with the double crossover (KTO20210) where occasionally it fails to operate.? I'm using two of these and the same problem occurs with both. The pulse time in the YD8008 is set to 300ms for the ordinary turnouts and 650ms for the double crossovers.? I've increased the pulse times gradually in an effort to improve the situation.? Most ordinary turnouts work okay.? I'm currently using three YD8008s all with YD6940s.? I'm using a 12 volt dc 3 amp power supply.

?

Is there a recommended pulse time for Kato Unitrack turnouts in order to get the optimum from the switching process?

?

I'm using the default settings in iTrain of 250ms for the activation time.

?

In simulation mode and in live mode iTrain behaves as expected ie all turnouts operate on the switchboard.? So I can see when routes are set that the turnouts have changed on the switchboard but have not moved on the physical layout.? Also the problems seem to occur some way into an operating session, so they are nearly always okay for the first few train movements.

?

Would appreciate some advice from someone who may have a similar setup.

?

Thanks
