Re: Best Command Station to use with Decoder Pro
Mark,
The difference with RailCom is that it *is* part of the NMRA specifications, not proprietary, and it may be supported by any manufacturer. As far as I know TCS and MRC (NEXXT) are the only US

Re: Anyone Have a Schedule Strategy to Put Long Train Into Multiple Staging Cassettes?
#operationspro
I'll try a strategy of changing the staging cassettes to a spur pool.
I think it will be an extra burden on the yardmaster, but we'll see.

Re: Best Command Station to use with Decoder Pro
Heath, As others have indicated, the LokProgrammer is faster because it only
works with ESU decoders. Kinda like that question you asked about function

Head Only.
This means that only the head of the train can be detected.
You must specify a train length and all your blocks must have their lengths specified.
It works best if you use speed

Re: Best Command Station to use with Decoder Pro
Heath,
I've been very happy with my TCS LT-50 using RailCom and LCC to
interface with it. I can read LokSound decoders in under 5 minutes
that way.

Re: Best Command Station to use with Decoder Pro
As others have said, the ESU Programmer uses a proprietary closed method to communicate.
The fastest route for decoders that support RailCom (includes ESU) via JMRI is a Command Station which

Re: Best Command Station to use with Decoder Pro
But, how often do you need to read all cvs anyway??
I typically do it ONCE per decoder, so the wait isn’t that onerous - even with a Ras Pi.

Considering those issues, JMRI Warrants don't use train length but does provide for 'Automatic Speed Profiling'. Essentially calculating the time a train should take to traverse a block.

See JMRI's SignalMastFollower.py script. It uses:
