Locked Re: decoder id and naming confusions
I think there are several causes of confusion that are really different. Maybe it would help to think about them seperately? a) "The Ident button picked the wrong decoder!" Some of these are

Locked Serial port too slow? Can anything work.
Well, I installed JMRI on my 1 year old laptop and it says that my COM port can only be set to 9600. I don't understand the reasons why. Anyway, if this is true for JMRI, what about other loconet

I've heard that it has a Chief-style programming track which can both read and write. That would be a really good alternative to the PR1, esp. if they can hit their price point. I'll be interesting

Thanks for catching that! I've fixed the originals. That's an example of a "family" of decoders. Jim Scorse uses the same micro-code for his line of "Silent Running" decoders. They all contain the

CV8 seems to be the most reliable data but I'm not sure what they do when a decoder is subcontracted like say Digitrax makes a decoder for Atlas or similar. One of the very large problems I

'Family' seems like a rather confusing category. Dividing the list by manufacturer is a good idea. In other words, I agree with Robin. Mike

Bob, I think I suggested a similar approach that was simpler. The dropdown decoder list just shows manufacturers, but then there are flyout menus for each manufacturer that list the models. If

I don't have any real ideas about how to better identify decoders. I agree it's a mess, and will be happy to implement whatever you guys think is best. Mark Gurries made a suggestion a while back

Because with some manufactures CV7 isn't going to always tell much maybe the DN14(x) concept would be good. The tabs (panes) for that group could then be asterisked with the comment, "not all of

Ok, so how should the decoder name appear in the list when multiple decoders have the same CV07 value? My suggestion is that if the models have the same features, i.e. DN140, DN144, DN145, DN146,
