Re: Is computer the only option to operate JMRI web server?
No other alternatives to a computer of some sort. ???
You could get a small low powered computer to run the webserver, rather than your regular device.? Whether that¡¯s a PI (quite easy to setup with Steve Todd¡¯s download for JMRI), or a small PC running Windows, Macos or whatever you prefer.?? There are small
low powered cheap PCs available, but I think the setup hassle may be higher than the PI.?
?
Sprog is irrelevant to this situation, it doesn¡¯t offer any gains for the stated problem.

I currently have a computer with JMRI that I use whenever I operate my Digitrax layout.? Main reason is to run JMRI web? server so I can see panels on my iPad which I use as my walk around control panel.? I have? no experience with some
of the other control devices such as the Pi, SPROG and any of the other device's that seems to be popular. If I want to continue to see my panels via JMRI web server, do I have any other options that would let me operate without a computer when running trains?

Re: Using Dapol semaphore signals signalist sc1 and dp8
The new Peco servo kit is a very expensive solution, a better route for servo operation of signals and turnouts is the megapoints system. Megapoints have a direct pc interface in development so it can be controlled by JMRI as well as an old school panel.

Re: Layout Editor, Simple LED
Well, keep this in mind: the icons you use for an object do not have to
match the object. So using say large lamps, but tying them to a turnout (by
replacing the icons) is fine.
As for creating a Light or Turnout, that is more choice and what is the
hardware. If you are watching a turnout or operating it from the panel, then
you want that to be a turnout object (even if it isn't using turnout icons).
Given what I remember about what you are trying to do, Lights would just be
a confusion, stick with Turnouts.

Re: Layout Editor, Simple LED
Thanks Ken and Paul. You are being really halpful. I can see that what you are suggesting is exactly what I want to make my ipad operated layout as easy to read and operate as possible.
I have added a light but am not sure how to add it to the Layout.
From the main PanelPro page I have:
Tools
Tables
Lights
Add
Hardware address (1)
Add control
By turnout status, control turnout NT500, Status for on (thrown)
Now I have a light called NL1
close page and open my Layout.
My problem is now I dno't know how to add it to the layout. I have looked everywher I can think of.

Re: Is computer the only option to operate JMRI web server?
You can replace your computer with a Raspberry Pi (or Sprog and some of the other solutions). I only know the Pi solution, which I have just installed on my own layout, as well as having used it on a couple of friends' layouts. You will need WiThrottle on your iPad, if you do not already use it. You can choose to set-up the PI as a standalone network or connect it to your home network. Most people run the Pi "headless", i.e. without a screen or keyboard. You can use VNC to access the Pi in case you need to tweak any settings. There are different ways to copy your JMRI roster from the computer to the RPi, I used a USB stick and it was very easy.
For more infomationr about the RPi solution, view M Steve Todd's website at?https://mstevetodd.com/rpi. Steve is the original author, now leader of the development team, for EngineDriver, an Android solution similar to WiThrottle.

Stefan

Re: Lokprogrammer of ESU
You can export a CV List File from LokProgrammer (Tools menu).
You can then import that List File into your currently-open DecoderPro roster entry. (File menu)->Import->LokProgrammer CV List File.
A lot quicker than using your DCC system to Read All CVs. Your DCC system is limited to the relatively slow NMRA Service Mode protocol. ESU's LokProgrammer uses a proprietary very fast protocol (and they have no intention of sharing it with us).

Re: Operations: trains to and from staging
Aggressive mode will probably do it. And you can make other trains individually normal build if you need to.
I have also used the "dash number" trick on a track/location. Put two tracks at storage, track-1 and track-2 (or whatever your names are) with each holding 8 cars.

This is the first in a series of test releases that will culminate in a production release, hopefully in early Summer 2019..
If you are currently using JMRI 4.9.6 or earlier, we strongly recommend that you first update to JMRI 4.12 and make sure that's running OK before updating to this test release. There have been a number of changes in serial port support, panel file format and
configuration options since those earlier releases, and moving to the stable JMRI 4.12 release is a good way to work through any possible problems.
