Re: DecoderPro Preferences folder is empty
To Marc/Dave: Looking through the?C:\Program Files (x86)\JMRI folder, I found two error log files named hs_err_pid4864.log & hs_err_pid8532.log. I'm guessing but I will try the Preferences option again to see if it generates another log file. <SNIP>? Contents of the first 20 or so lines # # A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment: # # ?EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xc0000005) at pc=0x654921f4, pid=8532, tid=0x0000353c # # JRE version: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (8.0_101-b13) (build 1.8.0_101-b13) # Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (25.101-b13 mixed mode windows-x86 ) # Problematic frame: # C ?[msvcr100.dll+0x121f4] # # Failed to write core dump.

Re: DecoderPro Preferences folder is empty
To Marc & Dave, After spending 30+ years as a IBM business computer programmer & then almost 10 years working with IBM rack mounted servers, my references to the registry entries I was finding is my way to try & help with my problem.? That is the reason for running CrudCleaner to find those unattached registry entries & get rid of them.? What I did not do was to run RegEdit to "find" all the JMRI references still left after running CrudCleaner.? The references?I found last night was after an install of 4.17.6 after uninstalling 4.16.? What i am drawing a blank is how I did the uninstall.? For programs I use the Start || Settings || Apps || Apps & Features || the icon for the program being uninstalled which in this case was JMRI. I also was looking at the authority of LaunchJMRI.exe after the install.? "Users" have only Read & Execute & Read authority.? I am generally inclined to run an important app with admin authority.? Is that a problem?? Admins & System users have full authority.? LaunchJMRI is in the same folder as the InstallTest batch file but here I probably right clicked the batch file & clicked Run as Administrator. I will continue to wonder through the logs looking for Errors or something that to me raises a question. Thanks - Dennis Munro On Mon, Dec 9, 2019 at 3:20 PM <forfoum@...> wrote: Dave, |

Dave,
OK.?? JMRI does not use/modify the registry ...? but simply installing JMRI causes? 26 "changes" to the registry. This I observed from a clean, 0% JMRI present in registry,? install? and then Immediate uninstall of JMRI without using or working with any component of JMRI. There were? still 14 changes to registry present re JMRI AFTER uninstall of JMRI? using Apps & features.? After a reboot of PC, thinking an update to registry might occur, the 14 changes to registry re JMRI ? still remain. Granted these are possibly not from the JMRI Installer per say, but they are done during the install process. And I doubt it has anything to do with what Dennis is encountering, just my observation, for what it is worth. Marc |

Re: Recover definition on decoder pro
forfoum@videotron.ca
Peter,? My take is he deleted the roster entry for the engine. Confusion sets in because of the wording he uses.
Frank,? Definition files are what the authors write up and provide? us re decoders.? We then use these definition files and? create our Roster entries from the details provided in the definition file.? I doubt you? would have played around in the "definition" files them self, let alone delete. This is not something that can be done within JMRI.? You can ADD definition files but not remove definition files from within JMRI. ? Marc |

Re: Recover definition on decoder pro
I'm confused about what you actually deleted.
Did you delete a decoder definition? Not something you can do from within JMRI. Or did you delete a locomotive roster file? -- Peter Ulvestad JMRI Users Group Moderator - ( ) Tam Valley Group Moderator - ( ) Sprog-DCC Group Moderator - ( ) Edmonton Model Railroad Association - |

Re: Recover definition on decoder pro

Yes.?? There is a .bak file for each roster entry. This is located where your ROSTER folder is located.?
You can use HELP, LOCATIONS to find where your ROSTER folder is located.? You go to this folder and find your file among? the existing? .BAK files and rename it by simply removing the .BAK portion. Once this is done, start DecoderPro, and request a ' Recreate Roster Index '.? Your? roster entry should then appear. Marc |

Re: Roco locomotive / Motorola decoder
开云体育If it’s a Zimo (likely on a modern Roco loco), then further CV’s (starting with CV7) will get to both the Zimo software revision and the decoder hardware description. ? There is a fair chance that the specific version in the loco isn’t in JMRI.? But, that doesn’t matter as 99% of Zimo features are common over a lot of hardware and software revisions, so picking something close in the JMRI list will work fine.???? The task of keeping up with the rate of releases from Zimo is difficult (dozens of software releases, every decoder being end-user upgradeable to any new software version), so quite a lot of small releases don’t get noted and/or don’t get to Zimo definition files in JMRI. ? ? ? -?????????

As Marc just said, CV 7 only gives the Zimo Software version number (currently 37 or higher), the decoder model itself is stored in CV250.

Re: Roco locomotive / Motorola decoder
Hi Robert, It helps when you provide more information as others have suggested. Here goes with the little we have. The NEM651 is commonly used in N scale locomotives. As such the decoder is likely to be a Zimo MX648 or MX649, small format sound decoder. Similarly, no problem in programming the address. I use NCE as well as DP.

Recover definition on decoder pro
Frank in Houston
I am using version 4.17.5 with an Apple laptop. I used Decoder Pro to program the decoder in a older locomotive. All was working fine until I accidentally deleted the DCC definition in Decoder Pro while trying to speed match it to a second locomotive ? in there a way to recover a decoder definition that has been deleted? Frank in Houston (learning the hard way)? |

Quite possible, CV7 will give us an idea where it stands.?
Unless Robert can tell us what specific Zimo decoder it is.? NEM651 is of no help.? Must be MX???? or similar.? MAybe tell us with specific ROCO engine it is and we can fish for details. Could also be as simple as adding the decoder in question to the list.? At present CV7 = 37 is the highest value in definition file. Marc |

Re: DecoderPro Preferences folder is empty

Never mind the 4 page report on registry, pointless, unless someone else wants it.? I've been thru the Win10 registry several times myself deleting anything relating to JMRI.? While it is a interesting endeavour, it is pretty futile.
Did the DecoderPro Icon get created on your desktop ? If you view the content of C:\Program Files (X86)\JMRI??? do you see LaunchJMRI? , Application,? (48KB) ? This folder is present since InstallTEST can be run.? InstallTEST is a .BAT (batch file)? so these are rarely quarantined.? .EXE files get fenced up. I just installed JMRI 4.17.6 on my wife's 64 bit Win10 HP portable. It installed and saw the Digitrax PR4. Worked fine, even InstallTEST found LaunchJMRI. Other thing I can think may have happened is? Windows Defender / Security blocked LaunchJMRI. Marc |

Re: PanelPro Display Issue for AnyRail Export
开云体育I am experiencing what sounds like might be a similar phenomenon. I have a panel developed in panel editor.? The panel is quite wide. Upon initial loading the track icons on the right portion (say about 10%) do not show. Other icons such as text labels and sensor icons do show.? Now if I drag the right hand edge of the panel far to the right, the track icons appear.? Now I can drag the right edge back to the original position and all is ok. I don't even need to release the initial drag, just sweep out to right field someplace and then back. I am on version 4.17.5+Rdf73700 with Java version 1.8.0_231.? I did notice this on a previous version but don't have recollection of just when or what version. I should mention that I have two monitors position left to right.? The left monitor is a wide screen monitor on which the panel fills the screen.Another thing that is bothersome,? the first time I reposition a JMRI window and then attempt to select something in the window? (say a menu item), there is a very noticeable delay (like 3 to 5 seconds).? This seems to occur only one time (per session). Jay Janzen St. Charles, MO On 12/8/2019 8:05 AM, Phil in gorgeous

WiFi Interface
Nicholas Geti
I found a vendor who has built a WiFi set of modules that can be installed in a battery powered locomotive. His software outputs to an Ethernet network router that connects wireless to his WiFi modules.
It has been awhile since I looked at JMRI so my question has anyone built an interface that outputs Ethernet protocols to a router from Windows 10 computers rather than to COM ports and LOCO-Net? If there is then I can control my outdoor railroad using radio controlled, battery powered locomotives and accessories and I don't have to get DCC from the rails. Nicholas |
