Re: Web Server
Randall Wood
In your Preferences, I would expect WiThrottle tab to show port 12080 (based on your description). The Web Server port is something else, shown in Preferences under the Web Server tab. In the browser, you will need to connect to <>.2:that-other-port

The default port for the Web Server is 12080 and the default port for WiThrottle is 12090. If those ports are the same, the WiThrottle server will get the port, but the Web Server will simply be blocked from working (the logs under System Console will likely show something to this effect). Hope this helps, Randall On Aug 8, 2017, at 13:23, harry.rigby@... [jmriusers] <jmriusers@...> wrote: |

Re: FW: Panel hardware
Billybob,
Nice bit of research. However, for any of the circuits I¡¯ve seen for CTC panels, you always want break before make types. Next is ?¡± shaft vs 6mm shaft is less than a 1/64¡± difference, so most knobs will not notice the difference (if they are 1/4¡± designs), the set screws can deal with that. As for flats on the shafts or keyed mounting hardware, I¡¯ve found most MR types seem to be rather heavy handed!! So having mounting hardware that will prevent twisting the switch itself is important. The flat on the shaft is critical to keep the knob in the right place, but this is easy after installation with a couple of passes of a file on the shaft if it wasn¡¯t equipped in the first place. Note: We¡¯d need to check about the knobs themselves to see if they are round or if they have an internal flat to match. That would be important to know. -Ken Cameron, Member JMRI Dev Team www.jmri.org www.fingerlakeslivesteamers.org www.cnymod.com www.syracusemodelrr.org [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] |

Re: FW: Panel hardware
Dale,
Here's my results from about 45 minutes work at the Mouser web site, looking only at "Alpha" rotary switches, and double-checking the part number versus the manufacturer's description. I appologize in advance for any typos. All were listed as "in-stock" when I looked these up today: Mouser 105-SR2511F-43RN : Alpha P/N SR2511F-0403-19R0B-E9-N-W-159 - open style suitable for US&S 2-position lever, using Tomar "slug"; metric mounting. Mouser 105-SR2511F-25NS : Alpha P/N SR2511F-0205-19R0B-E9-N-W-159 - open style suitable for US&S 3-position lever, using Tomar "slugs"; metric mounting. Mouser 105-SR2512F-43NS : Alpha P/N SR2511F-0403-19R0B-E9-N-W-159 - open style suitable for US&S 2-position lever, using Tomar "slug"; metric mounting. Mouser 105-SR2511F-25S : Alpha P/N SR2511F-0205-19R0B-E9-S-W-159 - open style suitable for US&S 3-position lever, using Tomar "slugs"; metric mounting - note that this is a "shorting" switch! Mouser 105-SR2511F-43S : Alpha P/N SR2511F-0403-19R0B-E9-S-W-159 - open style suitable for US&S 2-position lever, using Tomar "slug"; metric mouting - note that this is a "shorting" switch! Mouser 105-SR2511F-17S : Alpha P/N SR2511F-0107-19R0B-E9-S-W-159 - open style suitable for GRS 3-position lever, using Tomar "slugs"; metric mounting - note that this is a "shorting" switch! Mouser 105-SR2612F-26-21RN : Alpha P/N SR2612F-0206-21R0B-D8-N - enclosed style suitable for US&S 2- and 3-position lever, or GRS 2-position lever; imperial mouting - requires internal modifications! Mouser 105-SR2612F-26-21RN : Alpha P/N SR2612F-0206-21R0B-D8-N - enclosed style suitable for US&S 2- and 3-position lever, or GRS 2-position lever; imperial mouting - requires internal modifications! Mouser 105-SR2611F-12-21RS : Alpha P/N SR2611F-0112-21R0B-D8-S - enclosed style suitable for US&S 2- and 3-position lever, or GRS 2-position or 3-position lever; internal modification required - requires a specialty "stop" washer which may not be provided and I have not seen such a washer purchasable separately. Assumptions: . Want a round shaft, since the flat will likely not line up with the knob screw for an obvious orientation of the switch . require a 1/4" shaft, not a 6mm shaft . "open" style switches require the correct number of positions, at 30-degree indexing, for the desired number of 60-degree- or 90-degree-indexed positions. . "enclosed" style switches do not require at least the minimum number of positions, at 30-degree indexing, for the desired number of 60-degree- or 90-degree-indexed positions, and the number of "poles" cannot prevent unique identification of lever position when in position at any of the the 60-degree- or 90-degree indexed positions. . pin connection isn't critical. FYI - SR2511 and SR2611 have "wire lugs" and SR2612 has "pc-board" pins. Hope this helps. Regards, Billybob |

Web Server
Can anyone help? JMRI runs OK on a Windows 10 PC. I can control throttles, turnouts and I have a working panel. Using Engine Driver on an Android 4.4 tablet, it connects OK to 192.168.2.2:12080 and I can control throttles, turnouts and routes. However, when I select "web" it shows either a blank screen or sometimes a screen full of text, which looks like a status report. If I try to connect using a browser to 192.168.2.2:12080 I get a "no response" message.
In preferences Frames is disabled (as per default) and I have started the WiFi Throttle server and the web server with the application; both appear in the "startup" list. Is there a setting I have got wrong? Hope someone can help. Best wishes Harry |

DDA40X Dual DCC Controllers won't work
Hello,
I have an Athearn DDA40X non-sound unit that I purchased new. I didn't buy the sound version because I prefer the loksound select/direct decoders. My primary decoder is a Loksound Direct with all lights and the front motor connected to it. My secondary decoder is a TCS T1 for JUST rear motor control. My primary decoder is programmed for decoder lock with CV16=2 and my secondary decoder is programmed for decoder lock with CV16=1. Both decoders work fine and are brand new. Each decoder has separate track pick up wires wired to it, so decoder 1 picks up track power from the front trucks, decoder 2 picks up track power from the rear trucks. When I program both decoders to the 4 digit loco address only the sound decoder will drive it's motors When I assign the secondary decoder a separate 4 digit address and consist it with the first decoder, only the first decoder motor works. CV15=0,1,2 depending on if I'm programming or not and which decoder I want to program. My test track is controlled by an NCE Power Pro. My programming track is the NCE Power Pro via JMRI with a working usb-serial adapter. I can program mostly fine. When I go to assign CV15 to 2, some times it comes back unable to locate engine. I can change CV=15 to 2 using my NCE throttle and programming on the main. I know once I get this where both sets of wheels roll I will have a fun time fine tuning the momentum. Any advice. |

could you please provide the correct part numbers for the switches you referenced? You have shown the same part number for 3 different switches. Thanks, Dale Gloer |

Re: Panel hardware
Andy,
The CTCParts.com web site has an introduction to CTC - see . Specifically, "Part 5: The Control Machine", at the bottom of the page, gives basic descriptions of the lamps and levers. One thing I'm learning is that a given lever or lamp on the prototypical machine doesn't always have a simple explanation. There's always an exception. And railroad "X" did it this way but "Y" did it a different way and "Z" left that feature out and railroad "W" did something altogether different. So, if you want to be strictly accurate-to-prototype, you need to discuss your implementation with an expert in signalling. I know that Mike at CTCparts.com is willing (eager?) to discuss, the various prototype railroad practices, including whys and what-fors, indocator colors, control machine plate shapes, sounds, signal aspects, braking distances, switch geometries, etc., and how they come together as a prototypical signal system. Getting some of his time, however, can be challenging. Regards, Billybob |

Andy,
Dr. Bruce Chubbs Volume 2 is pretty complete. His articles in Railroad Model Craftsman are helpful. Part 14 (April 2014) has a few photos. There are some references on line, but the only one I can think of off the top of my head is Mike Burgett's web site: .

Re: New Version. 4.8 HELP
With the Mac you are simply dragging the distributed JMRI folder from the .dmg file to your Applications folder. Since you can't rename a folder on a disk image (Readonly) you'll have to rename the old one in /Applications before dragging. Once in /Applications, you can rename either folder as you wish (it may ask you to authenticate).
