Ian,

?

I think you need to prove the USB device from the DCS52.

?

One usual method is to:

1. Open a command window on the Linux system
2. Go to the devices directory, “cd /dev” will get you there.
3. Execute this line (without the quotes) “ls -lart |tail -5”
4. That should show the devices by active date. Note the names.
5. Plug in the USB from the DCS52.
6. Repeat the command from #3, there should be something new in the list. That’s what the system named it.
7. Remove the USB to the DCS52.
8. Repeat command in #3. That name should have left the list. This confirms the name.

?

If that name isn’t being offered in the JMRI connection, let us know what name you found. We can figure out why it isn’t working right.
