Re: Missing scroll bars in Layout Editor
#layouteditor
Hi, Spuds. Thanks for the reply. I'm using Java Version 1.8.0_211 (en_US), and JMRI Version 4.14+Rd060e0b. I've switched Edit mode on and off dozens of times, without effect. Right now, I'm having trouble resizing. I did it once, and the grid expanded to its apparent limits. I can't remember a way to get it back smaller, except I was smart enough not to save the panel after the resizing.... Don |

Hi Dave, I don't see your files (yet??). Can you post a link to them?
I think Spuds was asking about the full path, the part after the 12080. It'll be either /panel or /frame, those are very different servers. |

Re: Engine Driver, WiThrottle Server
There's many many issues that it can be. Do the androids keep a good wireless signal? (Have users check for their wifi strength at top of phone, when they have issues). If they lose wifi, then it's time to look at the wifi router Do the phones lose their IP, or lose connectivity to 'outside world' Again, check the wifi strength, looking if there's an X in corner. This can be loss of IP (DHCP expiring) loss of connectivity to outside world (which may not be an issue in controling trains), and points fingers at the DHCP server and/or router(s) Does it matter where people are? Bodies, and chicken wire scenery supports both make good wifi signal blockers Does it get better if you reboot wifi router(s)? How many people are on wifi, and what type of wifi unit is it (consumer home units often have problems with more than say 4 devices connected at same time)? If signal strength is good, but still lose connectivity to jmri server, can you? hit the JMRI webserver from phone web browser?? If you don't have it enabled, I think you can hit the withrottle port, but you'll get a ton of 'ugly' text, assuming you can hit it.. Unfortunately, figuring out what part of the network is having problems, and what the actual signs are can be difficult to find.

I'm using Chrome, the echo link shows websocket working.
"190729 Jay Console" has been posted to the files section.? You can make the "Stack Route" popup activate by selecting an Entry Exit route, say 15E to 4E, then select 14E to 4E - the dialogue box gives you the option to stack the route or not. |

Re: Question about Operations scenario with alternate tracks
Gary, By chance, did you check the "Allow Local Classification/Interchange to C/I Moves" in Settings->Options, under the Switcher Service Options?? That might have done what you want without defining a separate location.? On the other hand, since it is a global option, it may have missed up some other movements.? The help on that option recommends that it remain unchecked. Rodney |

Re: Engine Driver, WiThrottle Server
Mark,
I'm embarrassed to say I don't recall if I saw your messages or not, but I'd imagine so as the static IP was something I read this morning as part of the troubleshooting. I don't usually steal locomotives as it's almost always just me operating, and my capacity for running more than one locomotive at once is limited, especially if they are doing separate things. The original reason I got into JMRI was that I had no clue what was happening inside my Digitrax command station and there were times that I sincerely doubted that it knew what was happening either; my use of JMRI was to try and get some visibility into what was going on in there.? Steve, Regarding locomotives doing separate things: I was just going to try that, and to that end, I was moving a train with a single locomotive in the Zephyr's slot 3, controlled by Engine Driver, out of staging and up the hill. I tacked a second unit, controlled by WiThrottle/slot 1, onto the rear end to act as a manned helper and as the lead unit crested the hill, the whole train came to a stop, even with the rear helper fruitlessly churning away. I went over to the computer to figure out what was going on and was surprised to find that the lead unit was in emergency stop. I pulled the system console and loconet logs. Unfortunately, I'd not timestamped all of the LocoNet logs, only the last three minutes or so. I present them here, truncated and concatenated, with system console messages in bold. I had a total of three old devices attached to the WiThrottle server: two Galaxy S5, each controlling a single locomotive, and a single iPhone 4, again controlling only one locomotive. One of the two Android locomotives was stationary in the yard during this maneuver. I will continue to play around with various devices, and this time have everything timestamped. I hope to have another operator in tomorrow as well. I have the complete system console and a partial loconet log available should you wish to peruse them. I will try the network tool you mentioned as well. 16:30:01.094?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 85. 16:30:01.384?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 79. 16:30:05.675?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 75. 16:30:05.884?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 67. 16:30:06.084?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 64. 16:30:07.474?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 60. 16:30:08.244?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 59. 16:30:08.454?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 58. 16:30:08.634?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 57. 16:30:08.834?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 56. 16:30:09.044?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 55. 16:30:09.284?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 54. 16:30:09.494?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 53. 16:30:09.704?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 52. 16:30:20.495?: Set speed of loco in slot 2 to 0. 16:30:31.334?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 50. 16:30:31.564?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 42. 16:30:31.714?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 41. 16:30:31.904?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 0. 16:30:36.095?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 39. 16:30:36.334?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 34. 16:30:36.634?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 32. 16:30:36.864?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 30. 16:30:37.244?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 28. 16:30:37.794?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 24. 16:30:37.994?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 17. 16:30:38.204?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 10. 16:30:38.344?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 0. 16:30:44.114?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 2. 16:30:45.074?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 0. 16:30:47.794?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 5. 16:30:47.915?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 6. 16:30:47.954?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 8. 16:30:47.984?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 9. 16:30:48.014?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 10. 16:30:48.044?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 3. 16:30:48.044?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 11. 16:30:48.074?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 12. 16:30:48.115?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 14. 16:30:48.154?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 15. 16:30:48.194?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 16. 16:30:48.224?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 12. 16:30:48.254?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 17. 16:30:48.305?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 18. 16:30:48.344?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 19. 16:30:48.385?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 20. 16:30:48.424?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 21. 16:30:48.460?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 22. 16:30:48.494?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 23. 16:30:48.524?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 24. 16:30:48.560?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 26. 16:30:48.594?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 27. 16:30:48.624?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 28. 16:30:48.654?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 29. 16:30:48.684?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 30. 16:30:48.724?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 31. 16:30:49.135?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 15. 16:30:49.194?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 19. 16:30:50.824?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 32. 16:30:51.134?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 33. 16:30:51.194?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 34. 16:30:51.224?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 35. 16:30:51.934?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 34. 16:30:52.514?: Set speed of loco in slot 3 to 33. 16:30:52.814?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 20. 16:30:53.054?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 21. 16:30:54.094?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 22. 16:30:54.544?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 23. 16:30:54.934?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 24. 16:30:55.265?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 26. 16:30:56.195?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 27. 16:30:56.525?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 28. 16:30:56.664?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 29. 16:30:56.914?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 30. 16:30:57.104?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 31. 16:30:57.714?: Set speed of loco in slot 1 to 32. 16:30:58.684?withrottle.FacelessServer INFO - Creating new WiThrottle DeviceServer(socket) on port 12090, waiting for incoming connection...

In addition to Steve's quesions, which URL are you using? (there's 2, but I dodn't remember what the /<FOO>/ is that's different between them. What browser, browser version, and OS is the browser running on?? Some browsers (mostly on phones/tablets) don't completly support websockets, which JMRI uses on one of the URLS.

Don, What version of JMRI and Java are you using? Try toggling edit mode on and off, and resizing the window to see if anything makes a difference. Thre was a bug where the edit mode grid? overlayed the scroll bars so you coudln't see them, but that has been fixed for a while now.

Re: Best or correct way to add signal masts
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýRummy, I'm not sure 'signals' and 'sanity' belong together in the same paragraph. <VBG> 1) Signals go at the ends of a controlled block. There may be turnouts at the ends, but not always. There may also be turnouts in the middle of a controlled block with no signals. Also signals may be virtual, not actual hardware. The advantage being that you can purchase 'virtual' signals with imaginary money. For a prototype example just look at an interlocking between multiple main lines. There may be signal bridges at each end of the interlocking, but not normally at each turnout. The signal aspects at the ends will likely indicate the specific route lined through the interlocking. JMRI aspect logic (SML) expects you to enter each detection block and each switch position between signals. There is no limit to the complexity between signals. (don't use SSL, it stands for 'Simplistic Signal Logic' not 'Simple Signal Logic') 2) JMRI SML (Signal Mast Logic) is normally setup as signal pairs. If there are no signals in the reverse direction, then there are no signal pairs in the reverse direction either. JMRI does not know or care about 'direction', so there will be no problem. (except that you will need train orders to run against traffic) 3) Similar signal situations will normally have similar signals. For example a string of passing sidings will normally have the same type of signals at each turnout. (and a mirror image at the opposite end) For signals in one direction only you will possible just have two signal types, one style for intermediate signals, and a second style for signals at a turnout. If by unique signal head you mean the wiring connections, not the style, then yes, each signal will have its own control wiring. 4) The turnout positions are just one piece of information used to determine the signal aspect. Each turnout and each block will independently feed status information to JMRI. JMRI will then determine the proper signal aspect and control the signal. The turnout and occupancy information do not directly control the signals. JMRI logic controls the signals. Dick :) On 8/19/2019 5:38 PM, rummy@...

1 ¡ª Signals are not required at every block boundary. They are normally placed at control points, such as turnouts, and periodically on long main line runs. Most layouts don¡¯t have long main line runs. 2 ¡ª If traffic is strictly directional, signals are not required for reverse protection. 3/4 ¡ª The hardware is dedicated to a mast. The reference to heads and turnouts implies using something like the SE8C or CMRI to drive the signals. Other interfaces, such as the RR-CirKits SignalMan, can function as a DCC Signal Mast Decoder without defining heads or turnouts. Dave Sand On Aug 19, 2019, at 4:38 PM, rummy@... wrote: |

Best or correct way to add signal masts
I need a sanity check. ?I'm adding signal masts and looking forward to JMRI adding the appropriate logic to make the signals really hum. ?But, I need a few questions answered to be sure I'm proceeding in the right direction.
1) For JMRI to get the logic right, I need signal masts at every block boundary and every turnout? ? 2) And, my layout is a folded doggone with passing sidings and double-ended staging yard, so all traffic will be in a single direction. ?I don't plan on ever running trains on the wrong main, so to speak. ?In order for JMRI to do its logic thing, do I still need signals for both directions? 3) Every signal mast needs unique signal heads, as in each signal head can only be used at 1 location on 1 signal mast? ?Or can signal heads be used in multiple places? 4) Similarly, each signal head needs to have unique turnouts assigned for the aspects? Thanks, in advance for the help. ?I have a good panel, with contiguous blocks, every piece of track assigned to a block etc. ?And I have created signals (PRR position light style) and placed them on the panel for places I'd like to have signals actually on the layout. ?But there are still block boundaries and turnouts that don't have any signals, virtual or real, and I needed the help to proceed.

Dave's method is very straightforward. If you want fine control of the logo location, see my post on this topic on Aug 16 Robin Becker San Diego, CA -----Original Message-----

Re: Question about Operations scenario with alternate tracks
Thanks Dave.? I think I did set that option, but without custom loads.? Going forward, I will consider that load option as it sounds cool.? But for now, I just want to get up and running quickly, and I think this solution will work for me.
I agree - great program!? Thank you to all the developers! |

Re: wrong decoder
You could remove the locomotive then re-scan and chose the correct decoder. If you've entered CV values, make note of those for re-entering

I apparently chose the wrong decoder type when I scanned some of my locomotives
Is there a way to change them in the roster?
I also noticed, the pictures I drop in to the labels and media look fine on the page, but when you print the roster or look at he pictures on a iphone or ipad they all are upside down.
Did I do something wrong?
see the 2 photos
Thank you

Re: Webserver layout editor panel showing incorrect block occupation for a crossover
Hi Steve
Clearly it's a display rather than a control issue so that must push it down the pecking order. In my case there is a potential solution by using 2 points rather than a crossover, as I'm only using 2 rather than blocks. A shame as I've only recently moved to showing crossovers instead of points as a neater solution!! I'm tending to move towards web panel control due to availability of cheap tablets, so anything to make the web and native panels more consistent is good news. The particular layout that highlighted the problem is a CBUS demonstration layout, so I won't lose too much sleep over it! On that basis, and the fact that no-one else has mentioned it, it might be fair to rate the issue as 'nice to have'. Andy |

Re: Engine Driver, WiThrottle Server
Hi Sam,
Network issues, particularly intermittent ones, are very hard to diagnose. The log helps, but unfortunately in this case it only shows symptoms, not cause. Can you repeat this with multiple devices connected? I'd be very interested if they all lose connection at the "same" time. My best guess is interference. Something else came online using the wifi. You may be able to see that using a wifi analyzer program. I like this one:? --SteveT |

Re: Engine Driver, WiThrottle Server
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýSam, you may have run across my name when searching this topic. Our club has experienced the same drop-out. That includes those using i-Phones. Our console logs contained the same messages as yours. As far as I know, no one has found the cause. I wonder if it is related to other computer services rather than JMRI. We have made changes, such as static IP, that seemed to help. The problem comes and goes, but we have not experienced the drop-out for a long time now. We are currently using JMRI 4.16. It¡¯s distressing to find you have it with a later version. I¡¯m sure this is a red herring, but the last change we made was to make sure there was no ¡°stealing¡±. All members were instructed to always answer NO if Engine Driver or WiThrottle asked to steal. Instead, they are told to find the other throttle to which the address is assigned and get the address released so they can acquire it. We have a Digitrax-based system. I don¡¯t know if the stealing message is limited to Digitrax. Mark Granville Silk City Model Railroad Club |

Re: Question about Operations scenario with alternate tracks
Gary,
I think you may have missed the comment in my previous post to set the train build option to allow local moves.? This does require a custom load or final destination.? Note that you can create a custom "empty" load, just call it "Empty" or "MT" or whatever and designate it as empty.? If you don't want to use custom loads then your solution of using an additional location works too.? I use all custom loads as I think it adds more realism to the operating session.? It makes more sense to me than delivering a bunch of cars full of "L"!? It is fun to watch an operators expression when they discover that they just picked up a load of political promises from the fertilizer company. Dave... |
