Dave/Bob and all.

Problem resolved thank you - though I am not sure what the exact problem was in the end. ?I spoke to the supplier of the USB interface who asked what the address was of the Procab. ?It turned out to be set to the same address as the interface (03) so needed to be changed. ?I don't remember changing it from 03 when I installed the interface two years ago and JMRI has been working since then, but perhaps I did. ?If so, I don't know how it reverted to 03. ?Anyway, i changed it to 04 and opened up another problem: ?clicking on a point in JMRI changed it on screen but not on the layout - but also set in motion one of my trains - as it happens with an address starting with 4. ?Thinking that that might mean the JMRI throttles were working, I tried them - but they were not. ?I changed the Procab adderss to 05 without any effect. ?I swapped the cable between the interface and the SB3 - no change. ?In the end, I reverted to the old method - switch off and reboot. ?Now everything works and my Procab is set to address 04. ?What a dark art this world of electronics is!?

? The EB1 will not have any effect on JMRI. It would assist us greatly if you were to restart JMRI, try to use a JMRI throttle, then go to the Help->System Console Menu item from the main DecoderPro window, click on Copy To Clipboard and paste into a post for us all to see. Also please observe and report back whether you see any LED activity on the NCE USB and whether any LED remains stuck on. -- Dave in Australia On 3 Jul 2017, at 7:21 pm, Harold Thompson haroldthompson157@...

I can see nothing wrong with the preferences - indeed if I change any of them I get a red error message. I must admit that I don't really understand the other settings so wouldn't know whether or not they are correct but I have not chnged any of them since I last used JMRI. Using the cabs, everything wroks correctly so the connections between them and the layout must be correct. Regarding connections from the computer, there is a USB cable to the interface; from the interface there is a coiled cable to a splitter that connects to the SB3a and the Procab. I have heard that the splitter can cause a problem so I removed it and connected the coiled cable direct to the SB3a - made no difference. I use the Powercab as a handset as well as for the programming track and that is plugged into the left port of the UTP panel (which is connected to the SB3a by the supplied cable). #yiv0892188709
