Vince,

I tried another test using the same turnout and sensor names and still no blocks were created.

If you are willing, try uploading the panel XML file, or send it directly to me. Although the odds are small, there might be a clue in the file.

Hi Hubert/Steve,
I've been following this thread with interest as I'm just about to get in to automation & whilst I don't want to hijack this thread, I do have a couple of questions.I really don't mind if you want to leave the answers until you get the issue sorted to save any confusion, but I thought the questions might help others that are new to or thinking about using automation ..
Q1: What is the difference between using signal heads & signal masts??(I've seen these referred to in several threads so it obviously makes a difference between the types?).
Q2: What direction sensors are you using - or are aware of??(I was under the impression that JMRI would work out the direction of travel itself via two consecutive detectors (IR or other)).

Hi John,

My transits do include all the sections to make a circuit, and the first and last sections are the same. Trains loop around the layout very nicely.
Dispatcher allocates 3 sections ahead. You can see this as the yellow blocks in my youtube video.
So your loop must be more than 4 sections or I would expect the issue you describe. How many sections are in your transit?

Thank You Walt. So if I develop the JMRI to use block sensors for signals and road crossings should I use the loconet? Have Digitrax DCS51 - SEC8C - BD4 to run on my layout. RJ

Wow. I cannot go back to 4.7.5, as NX and stored warrants are no longer
working.

First I just replaced the 4.7.6 .jar file to the 4.7.5. Nope.

I then re-installed 4.7.5 (on top of 4.7.6 as I cannot afford to d a
scratch re-install), same problem:

Hi Dave
I have not created any block table, the only tables I created is Turnout Table with System Name IT5 and NT1 to NT4, User Name Turnout 1 to Turnout 5. Sensors Table with sensors IS801 to IS807 System Name, and Block 801 to Block 807 for User Name, plus IS901 to IS904 System Name and Interlock 901 to Interlock 904 for User Name. Also in Layout Editor I placed 5 single Turnouts L and R as per configuration of the JMRI Panel Tutorial by Bob Bucklew with no track line connection between turnouts. B. Bucklew doesn't use Block Table in this tutorial, I have done it in version 3.11... and 4.0 and works great, this new Layout Editor after save the panel, if open with an xml Editor shows IB1 to IB7 System Name and Block 1 to Block 7 user Name, I don't know where these blocks come from, and the <filehistory>at the bottom of the panel builds up for ever for each time save and open the panel I thought this was fixed after v 3.10...
Thank You for responding.

Otto,
Look at the RTXINITIALIZER in LRoutes. It allows for a script to be run at startup.


I have used it for years in my client work for getting everything setup prior to Logix and other managers starting. Very useful for implementing CTC logix which sets the interlockings to Stop.

Otto,



You can arrange to order of all the startup actions using the preferences
window. It will let you move one up or down in the order. That has been
around since 4.4 I think. So if you make the panel the first line and the
other actions like loading scripts later, that should also take care of it.

Thank you Randall; that fixed it up & now it is working without any error messages!

Hi Bob,

I fixed the error.

I wrote a script to load the panel and execute it on start up before the signal follower script.

the script:
import jmri
import java

jmri.InstanceManager.getDefault(jmri.ConfigureManager).load(java.io.File(jmri.util.FileUtil.getExternalFilename("preference:Inglenook_simulator.xml")))


Is this a sensible solution?

Regards
Otto

Hi Bob,

I got the signal mast follower to work (almost).

I set the SignalMastFollower script to run at startup, where it fails with:
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'addPropertyChangeListener'

If I open the panel then execute the script again, the signal mast following works.

Have I missed something in the set up? - it seems the script is being run too early.

BTW: There's an error in the script. On the last line (the example) it should read SignalMastFollowerListener and not SignalFollowerListener.

Regards
Otto

Marshall,



After much debate we did add the 'normalizing' of names to remove leading
and trailing spaces. We had a history of finding and fixing users panels
where things didn't work right and it traced to where they had used a space
when entering the name one place and not the other, sometimes even 3
variants. But each would refer to a different object while the display would
barely show the space (trailing completely hidden by whitespace), making it
very unclear to the user why something didn't work right. And in the table
display, the sorting would usually not show them near each other so it was
very difficult to see.

Guys,



I have a mixture of Digitrax (80%) and MERG (20% ) devices on my railroad.
While debugging a script problem I saw this error in the Console Log:



Cbus.CbusTurnout error Did not find usable SystemName: MS Camt-Eventqueue



I have switches controlled by the Merg cards and they all work, so if
someone can point me where to look to correct this error, it would be
greatly appreciated.

Peter,

Yes, the panel worked the same. The solution was so simple I didn’t even consider it.
Saving the panel removed the leading spaces. Something to remember in the future
should I see the “normalize” warning message again.

Thanks,

Marshall

Marshall,

I could be wrong but if JMRI normalized the name when the panel started, the panel should have worked the same. All you would need to do is save the panel to retain the change.

A developer may correct me or expand on it.

This is fixed in JMRI 4.7.x. You will either need to install JMRI 4.7.6 or wait until 4.8 is released and install that version.

To all,

I booted Decoder Pro after shutting down the PC and rebooting it and the ops mode and main programming remained green.

Decoder Pro is now working successfully.

I guess that something got reset when rebooting the PC and Decoder Pro.

Hello,


I would like to hire a JMRI PanelPro expert to build my layout in order to control turnouts and routes, occupancy to come in the future. I have my layout in Anyrail which I believe is exportable to Panel Pro. Any referrals would be greatly appreciated.


Thank you and best regards,
