Similar problem.? Upgraded from v4.16 to v4.18 on a Windows 10 platform (Digi DB150, PR-3, LocoNet, Android based EngineDriver on a tablet) and it runs.? But I can't get WiThrottle to work.? Yesterday tablet acquired EngineDriver but would not access roster nor operate power button.? Today EngineDriver sometimes sees and sometimes doesn't see the server.? But says 'not connected, check WiThrottle and Web Server'.? I have the correct url and port, no changes from v4.16.

See below****I checked out Dale Gloer's msg thread 167074 but can't find a Consist.xml file.? I see an xml folder in the program folder but no consist file.****See below

Above not correct, I found and renamed a consist.xml file to old_consist.xml in both File path preference: is C:\Users\conrad\Dropbox\JMRI\ [main] and File path profile: is C:\Users\conrad\JMRI\My_JMRI_Railroad\ [main] with still no WiThrottle connection.? Also a little worried that preference and profile paths are different.? See console log below.

"IMPORT"? only works with files that were? "EXPORT"ed. ? You must first " EXPORT the complete roster "? on the source system and then "IMPORT"? the? "EXPORT"? file you copied to the NEW computer.

Method 1 :

2 - Select? "Labels & Media "
3 -? In the newly open window select the "Roster Media " tab.
4 - Open your image folder and Drag & Drop your image file to both the MAIN and ICON image boxes of item 3.

Method 2:

1 -? Highlight the Roster entry you want to add photo too.
2 - Lower Right Hand of DecoderPro, select " Lables & Media "
3 - In new window, select the " Roster Media "? tab
4 - Open your Image folder and Drag & Drop your image file to both the MAIN and ICON image box of item 3.
5 - Save to Roster.

To save space resize your image files to 500 X 350? using Windows Paint or other image editor.

Note that future versions of Jython are going to remove execFile() (this function was removed from Python in 3.0).

We might just have to plan on not relying on a set of convenience bindings and use foos = jmri.InstanceManager.getDefault(jmri.FooManager) for whichever manager is wanted.

I can't seem to find a method to add a media photo to my engine roster (profile). I searched the web and found pictures, loaded them on a stick and then clicked on the media tab for the selected locomotive. This method doesn't even give me an option to add or retrieve an image. I must be over looking something pretty basic.

One way I can? get it to work is by passing a copy of the sensors object

I have updated to the 4.19 but still get the remaining problem which I expand in a bit more detail below. I have put the panel in script examples / YAAT for dispatcher / demoDP.xml

Dispatch 2-3

Train goes into siding 2 from siding 3. The signal1-3A??nearest siding 3 facing away from siding 3 goes green after the train arrives at siding 3.? It changes when point 1 (nearest siding 3) changes

?

Dispatches 3-4

The signal 1-3 goes red when the train dispatches, and then freezes. Does not then respond to point 1 (nearest siding 3) changing

?

Dispatch 4-3

Signal 1-3 stays red

?

Dispatch 3-2

Train goes waiting

Change signal1-3 by hand

Train advances to turnout 1 then stops.

I will be very pleased if you can suggest how I can change the panel so that the above problem does not occur..

I have tested a version of YAAT enhanced with dispatcher. This is a modification of your file which includes subroutines. I have placed it in script examples / YAAT with dispatcher, together with the layout I have tested it with and the YAAT file that I have used.

Please feel free to change as necessary, if you would like to include it. I am finding it useful.

It runs using the dispatcher files that are produced as part of the dispatcher routine, and hence makes the calling very easy (unlike the first version I sent you), and makes it easy to test the routine using normal dispatcher, then automate, knowing that it should work!

In most cases the the user id is "pi" and the password is "raspberry"

I think in the image Steve states ...........user is "pi", all passwords are "rpI-jmri", 3rd char is a capital "eye"

try both if they still fail then the user id pi may not be added in LPADMIN.

You have to add the the user id of pi to the LPADMIN

sudo usermod -a -G lpadmin pi.

When you run this command your user id is added to access CUPS

Thanks Dave.?

unfortunately I also use this function so that I can have a dynamic name which gets in the way. Is there a way to? have testRoute1 as a string, something like route=eval("testRoute1()") ?

Steve

Just updated from version 4.16 to 4.18 and the problem with "one of my dispatch routes in that when I initially set it up the active train is WAITING" has dissapeared. Someone must have been busy...

I still have the problem that befor running dispatcher on a route all the signals are working correctly and change when I move points. After I run dispatcher on the route, the initial signal freezes to red. I then cannot run dispatcher from that siding again. I will update to the latest test release and see if that does anything...

Hi all, I am new at this so you know. I’m running my pi with the image from Steve Todd. I would like to print my roster but there doesn’t seem to be a simple add printer function like windows. Did some searching and found I need to install CUPS to the pi which I did. To configure and add the printer you have to goto the LocalHost:631 which is browser based using Chrome. All works fine until I try to add the printer in my network. The CUPS page asked for the username and password. I don’t know what this refers to. Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance. Steve M

Gentlemen

I am going to go ahead and set up a schedule.I still do not fully understand the Random Feature I want to schedule the one car every 3 months. I therefore set Random at 5 does this sound plausible.

Hi Steve

I managed to get the x-over working. Thanks a lot for your comments, it gave me the impetus to try something else. I had originally two physical detection blocks which I had OR’ed together to form a virtual block. I rewrote it so both physical blocks were used by the x-over, and it seemed to work – after some trials and tribulations.

Things I had to do:

1)????? Add extra track to 2 of the branches of the x-over with the same block value as the x-over to enable the dispatcher routes to be constructed

2)????? Add extra track to the base of 2 of the points to get the signals and/or dispatcher to work properly

3)????? I had to insert a dummy extra block on the end of one siding. There is a restriction that the dispatch route has to have two or more sections. I had the requirement that the route should include the siding section and another section consisting of two blocks.

If the restriction stated

a.?????? The transit should have 1 or more sections

b.?????? The dispatch route should allow a transit with 1 section if the ‘Train in selected transit’ is not ticked.

Then I could have created my dispatch route without adding a dummy extra siding block. Putting the dummy block meant that the transit could include the siding.

?

Problems

1)????? When I move from siding 3 to siding 4, 4 to siding 3, then attempt to move from siding 3 to 4 again the signal is red leaving the siding and the train is WAITING. I change the signal by clicking on it and the train starts moving.

Same thing when I go from 4 to 3 then back to 4. I was hoping that the problem would be a consistent one, but when I move the train from siding 5 to siding 4 and back again repeatedly, everything works OK.

2)????? I still have a problem with one of my dispatch routes in that when I initially set it up the active train is WAITING. I thought that waiting meant that the signal was against the train, but it isn’t. Maybe you can give me some pointers on how to solve this problem, maybe setting some breakpoints in the code.

Things that would be nice

1)????? Change dispatcher so that I could stop using extra blocks on the end of sidings. I did try adding an extra section by putting an extra block on one of the Y’s of a point, but that screwed up the signals.

2)????? To know when to add extra blocks to make dispatcher work. I think a general rule is that when a point has a different block sensor to the previous track, then add an extra block, but I wold like that confirmed. It would be nice not to have to put the extra block in.

3)????? To have helpful diagnostics when the dispatch is waiting, or at least to have a crib list of things to check. I am a bit stuck there.
