Gerry,
I've been using the PTB100 for the past 3 years and it has worked?fine?up until now.? A problem exits using the Soundtraxx "Sound Decoder".
Don't I need the PTB100 on all sound decoder programs?
JP?

When using the Tsunami 2 or Econami - remove the PTB100.

Hello,
I'm having some difficulties after recently upgrading to 4.10 just
after the new year.
+ Computer make and model - HP Compaq 6220
+ Computer Operating System - Windows 7
+ JMRI version installed - 4.10
? + if you just upgraded, from which version - 4.9?(I think)
+ JAVA version installed - 1.8
+ Interface device (if any)
+ DCC system in use - Digitrax DCS50
? ? ? (the specific model, not just the manufacturer)
+ Any other DCC devices in use - Soundtraxx PTB-100 / Locobuffer - USB 2.0
+ Com port in use (if any) - COM5
+ Baud Rate settings (if known)
+ Specific details of your difficulty, including error messages if any..
?I am suddenly having issues with:
- Trying to read correct CV's and change CV's using my JMRI and power
system (have been doing this successfully for 3 years now).
- Could not?change sound levels or type of sound on?a new
Soundtraxx?Sound Car decoder.? I use Programming Track.
- I noticed that the ON/OFF light on the JMRI screen showed "Unknown",
and when I tried to change it,
?????????to "On" (green) or "Off (red) using my "power" on/off button
on my throttle as it has always done in the past, it did not take it.?
The light did not change ???????? and "Unknown" was still
illuminated.??I had to move the curser to the box and then click to
get ON or OFF.
- When I put a Soundtraxx decoder on the track and went to "Read New
Loco", it read some other decoder that I had never heard of:? Massoth
Elektronik, Gmbh???
- The Loconet "box" keeps popping up everytime I go into JMRI.? I have
saved it each time, but it comes up again and keeps asking if I want
to save it or deleate it.
I have been reading some group remarks today about issues with the
4.10, yes?? Should I go to the next level...4.11, or?do I need to
revert to an earlier version than 4.10?
Your assistance is most appreciated.
John
