Go to the Windows Device Manager. Unplug and plug in your interface. The device manager should show it being removed and plugged back in. Check which Com port it says.
To post your system console output, click on the "Copy to Clipboard" button and paste (Ctrl V) that into a message instead of creating a file that needs to be downloaded.

The offline Java I'm finding is about 61 KB and not the 150 Ken thought is could be.
?
Error Code 1603. Java Update did not complete.
This is the error code I'm getting on the other computer.
?
But like I mentioned, I'm going to bring my USB WIFI adapter and just connect his computer to the internet for the java program the next time I'm over his way hoping that will take care of all of this stuff. Never had an issue loading offline java before this.

I kinda thought so as far as just placing the Java folder in the other computer. John, I did use the offline Java, but it will not load on the computer there. Comes up with an error code that I do not have in my 73-year-old hard drive as I type this. Ken, the java I downloaded is, jre-8u421-windows-i586 and it is about 61KB so maybe this is not the correct version??
As always, thanks for both of your replies.

tried before and after the panel is loaded. Sometimes the

LogixNG Timers configured to fire when JMRI starts do not work properly
Due to a mistake by myself, LogixNG Timer actions doesn't work correctly in JMRI versions 5.5.6 and later, including production releases 5.6 and 5.8.

During the installation process Java writes registry entries that identify its location among other?things. You need to download the installable package and run it on the computer that requires Java.

I Dave,
For Windows systems, you must run the standalone installer if the computer isn't on the internet. In the fine print you will see one of the download options is 'standalone' meaning offline install. That file is usually 150M or greater.
At this point, I'd suggest getting the Java removal tool from Oracle to see if it can find stray parts and make sure all of those are removed. Sometimes a broken install can confuse the new install.
On a Windows system, parts get put in a number of different places and things get set here and there and the installer knows all those places.

JMRI Signal Mast Logic (SML) implements ABS (Automatic Block Signaling). ?The signal aspects indicate the train speed when no other rules apply. ?In general terms there is a series of descending speeds as the train approaches a Stop condition. ?The typical aspect sequence is Stop, Approach and Clear. ?Some signal systems include "Advanced Approach" between Approach and Clear.
For your example of a train in block A1 ready to proceed clockwise, 554 and 551 will display Clear, 554 will display Medium Approach and. 533 will display Stop. ?For an opposing train, 555 will display Stop and 550 will display Medium Approach. ?543 and 530 will display Clear.
The 30 and 33 turnouts add complications. ?
A signal mast pair can only exist one time. ?For 533 to 554, that is when both 30 and 33 are closed. ?Also, blocks F1, E1 and A1 must be unoccupied to not display Stop. ?
When 33 is thrown and 30 is closed, the destination mast is 557. ?The aspect for 533 will depend on the current aspect for 557 and the block occupancy for F1, E2 and A3,
Note: ?A clockwise train cannot get to E1 or F1 if 30 is thrown.

I don't know where you are starting from, but here are the steps to successful signal mast operation:
?
1. Define the signals (signal mast table)
2. Define detectors (sensor table)
3. Define blocks (block table, set sensors)
4. Set signals at turnouts/anchors on layout panel
5. Generate SML through discovery (signal mast table)

Detectors and turnout status will set aspects correctly, according to your selected signal system, using signal mast logic.

In either case construction lines appear when edit mode is checked. It does appear, as Dave indicated, that is setting is not saved with the panel.

To be aboslutely clear, a signal mast "aspect" is given to an engineer or operator. That person must obey the "indication" which applies to the given aspect. JMRI will _not_ cause any train to stop or go, based solely on a signal mast's "aspect". JMRI _can_, in some circumstances, with some additional JMRI "features", and all of that feature's configuration, decide that a given train would need to change speed. Those features allow JMRI to effectively implement an "artificial engineer/operator". But those other JMRI "features" are another discussion. This one is about "signals". Regards, Billybob

My signal mast have been in operation for over a year and were working correctly.? I am trying figure out why they are not at this point. I am in the process of going through the signal mast logic to see if it makes sense to me. I will post problems that I can not figure out.
I have uploaded the most recent revision of my file.?
The signal mast logic discovery for signal mast 550 is not finding the next destination mast which I think should be mast 555. It seems to be skipping to 555 and 530 and going to 544.? 544 does not seem correct as I think if 555 and 530 are skipped it would find mast 543? and not mast 544.
Any help is always appreciated.
David Sand has been very helpful with signal mast issues in the past.

I don't know where you are starting from, but here are the steps to successful signal mast operation:
?
1. Define the signals (signal mast table)
2. Define detectors (sensor table)
3. Define blocks (block table, set sensors)
4. Set signals at turnouts/anchors on layout panel
5. Generate SML through discovery (signal mast table)
?
Detectors and turnout status will set aspects correctly, according to your selected signal system, using signal mast logic.
