Ken,
The key in either version is this:
2019-07-24 09:15:08,453 jmrix.AbstractMRTrafficController WARN -
Timeout on reply to message: AA consecutive timeouts = 0 in
nce.NceTrafficController [nce.NceTrafficController Transmit thread]
2019-07-24 09:15:08,562 nce.NceConnectionStatus WARN -
Incorrect or no response from NCE command station [nce.NceTrafficController
Transmit thread]
This says the USB is not responding. We get the port open in both cases, but
no answer. So the next question is what are the jumper settings on the USB
device? All on, all off, or which? If all are on, then you need to click the
'additional info' in the connection and try 19,200 baud rate. We should be
seeing an answer that tells which version of interface you have. It should
be something like version 7.3.* or 6.3.*. If we see that message, then we
are talking to the USB device ok. If we are still having issues, then we'd
start looking at the cables and a few other settings on the command station.
