That's one I'm using too.

Is it possible you're using an older version of the Arduino sketch that
didn't support programming? I installed my Uno/MotorShield about a month
ago, and was able to read/write CVs on the programming track with no
problem.



This is the one I am using:

OK, I have been playing around with DCC++. I ordered some clone boards from
China (Uno and Motor Shield), and they came today. I already had updated
Java and installed JMRI 4.6 on both my old laptop running Lubuntu 14.04 and
my Chromebook running LXDE. I cut the motor trace per DCC++ instructions,
uploaded the sketch, and installed jumpers. The lights come on,and I can run
locos with it using JMRI throttles. The problem, though, is I can't program
anything--the screen says no programming track, no ops mode programming. The
Programming screen seems to be set to edit only. Is this a JMRI issue, or a
DCC++ issue? Also, layout power is OFF when JMRI starts.


There is another thread on DCC++ with some of the same complaints, but it
seems to have veered to other topics...

Michael,



Thanks for your continued improvements to the WOW definitions. It can't be
easy....



I applied the 6/16/17 WOW updates to JMRI v4.7.2-R71b21f. I did a quick
test, and still don't have any control of Steam V4 short or quill whistle
volume.

I can reduce the volume on the long whistle, but oddly, can't increase it
afterward. Write seems to go OK, but no results. Read shows default
settings. Audio Assist is my go-to for this.



Thanks again!

For CATS to turn on and off a signal it needs two pieces of information - how to make the signal light up with the desired color and how to turn it off. You have the "off" part defined. You need to add the "on" part. So define "Flashing Red" as LT 441 Throw - the same as Red.

If all the signals on the SE8C use flashing red, you can configure the fourth aspect in the SE8C for flashing red, but you would lose "off" on all signals driven by the SE8C. Thus, you would give up flashing yellow and approach lighting.

I can't find a CATS users group to send this to, if someone can suggest....

I am converting over from JMRI CTC to CATS. As I write my own software using Jython scripts, I can "get away with anything".

I have a situation whereby a mail line goes into a yard area. I want the SC8C signal there to only display two things: Flashing Red (restricting) or Red, no matter what is beyond. Restricting if NOT occupied, Red if occupied (the yard that is).

I defined a "signal template" for a one head signal so that all aspects are Flashing Red in the "matrix" area, along with Restricting, "Halt" is still Red.

For the signals "details" (signal head definition):
Flashing Red" Decoder "NONE"
Red: LT 441 Throw / Green LT 441 Close, Off: LT442 Close
"Software Flashing" is checked.

When I look at the Loconet messages, I see ONLY the "turn off" (LT442 Closed On/off) commands at 1/2 the flash rate, CATS never send the "turn on the Red Led" command out.

Help!

Listers,

I am running JMRI 4.6 on a Windows PC, working to program Soundtraxx
Economi and Tsunami2 decoders.

I have used the function map to assign the FX5 and FX6 functions to F0, the
headlight command.

However, the only way I can get the lights to turn on are with the check
boxes on the function map page. If I don't check the boxes for the
function from where the lights are mapped, the lights will not turn on or
off using the headlight button. My issue is that I cannot use the dimmer
or even turn the light on or off unless I go into DecoderPro to check or
uncheck those boxes.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

I just tried connection some Switch Kats to the DCC++. They work but not on the addresses already programmed into the Switch Kats. Found them by adding 16 Turnouts to the panel.

Address of Switch Kat is 1 and DCC++ says its 4.
Address 4 says it is 8.

Is this in the DCC++ code or with JMRI?

Dennis

Good idea.

Are source and destination addresses important or will the listener just pick up any message of that type on the loconet?

The situation with addresses isn鈥檛 really clear. If there鈥檚 other equipment on your layout that reacts to those, just change them. Most generic boards don鈥檛, but there are some specialized things that do.

The script takes all Peer Transfer messages, but it would be easy to add checks on the various fields.

Also should the code element always be 5?

This code doesn鈥檛 care.

Hi Bob,
Belated thanks for your comments.
The problem was my crappy programming: i'd reversed the sender and destination aliases.

If anyone is interested I've posted a working model of the configuration process to .

As to my masochistic tendencies: maybe I've been in IT too long and have a higher than usual pain threshold.

I have discovered some serious problems with using JMRI against a Lenz LiUSB on two machines. I can't longer use JMRI trough these machines any more. When started the power button is yellow and saying that the power status is Unknown.


Machine 1.
Was upgraded to version 4.7.6 when this problem occurred. I then also updated the drivers to the latest versions available. On this machine it had not been used for a long time so I'm not sure which version it was on. I have the software from Lenz installed on this machine and was able to connect and check the interface correctly.
I started the expressnet monitor and then pressed the power button. The only response I got was


[packet: 21 80 A1] REQUEST: Emergency Off


This was the only response fram the expressnet.


Machine 2.
This machine had version 4.7.3 or 4 installed and was used last week. Today it was upgraded to version 4.7.7 and then we got the same error as described.


Any help would be welcomed.

It鈥檒l be in JMRI 4.9.1 in a few weeks:

The message would be generated by a JMRI script. I'll attached a sensor listener and will need to transfer the information between the machines running panel pro. So if computer No 1 has a train named 3P45 on track section BB, when sensor BB goes occupied I need to send a message to computer No 2 that the train on BB track is 3P45.


Sorry to ask more of you but how would it look in a script? I'm happy with adding listeners to sensors but what would the peer txfr and unpacking look like?


I've said before I'm no computer programmer I just muddle through using copy and paste :-). We don't presently have the 2 pc's connected on a LAN so the only connection between the 2 pc's is via loconet. I could introduce a LAN if that made the process easier although I'd still have no idea how to open sockets etc.

Joe,

#1
I just tested with 4.7.7
When just selecting from the Roster page a popup should come up giving a couple options. Looks like 1 page only
When opening the roster entry, a print preview popup should come up showing more options then the above. Can be several pages long. the one I tested had 10 pages.

Bob,

I'm a new user of Decoder Pro which I like very much.The other day I posted three Decoder Pro inquires inside one message, probably not a kewl thing to do. Dave In Australia responded to one of the three. One of the others that hasn't been responded to was that when I make a roster selection and then do a Print Preview Selection noting appears on the screen. As a new user I freely admit that I may not be doing things correctly but since you are asking to inputs before your formal release I thought I'd comment here. Thanks
