ZIMO offer the support for connection via USB or LAN (Ethernet) using the CAN 2.0 Protocol, as described in this pdf :-
This is described as the instructions for developers of computer control programs for model railways for the MX10. So, if you can interpret this protocol, then it can be used for either USB or Ethernet connection, if I understand this correctly. Page 9 has the PC/USB interface defined and the next page (p. 10) has the LAN/Ethernet info. If I translate these 2 pages, would that help? Is there anyone who can do write the code that JMRI needs to start talking to the MX10? looking at the details on this 58 page document, it seems a big project to develop this from scratch.
