Dropbox doesn't support ARM architecture. There are workarounds but nothing a simple as installing Dropbox.
Do a Google search for the workarounds.

I’m about to upgrade my Lenz LZV200 command station to their v4. One of the new features is support for functions up to F63

Is there anything I need to do to make JMRI and WiThrottle aware or will they automagically notice the increased function support?

Thanks

"Once the indicator light stayed yellow for a few moments indicating an update in progress but ultimately failed as well."

That's a bit of a clue. If you cannot clear/get to Com Port 5. Then something of over riding it. The fact that a update
is in progress could indicate that a process is hung up.

A firmware up date must complete so Windows may have the com port restricted so the DigiIPL process can complete.

That may be why the In use error happens.

Inobu?

It might work.

Now I just feel guilty......

But thanks

I would have attempted it myself, but I was pretty sure I'd have broken something else

Fixed via PR

This is really nitpicky (but it grabs my eye every time I see it)

For the Zimo MX series decoders, on the "Lights" pane there is a dropdown list to choose the "light effect generated"

One of the effects is "sparks with hevy braking" :(

Next time someone edits this file, could they please consider making it "heavy" please

MANY thanks

Process Explorer

Ken -- The?Process Explorer find 0 matches for USBSER as returned by the device manager even though the PR3 is plugged into such a port, that according to the device manager is functioning properly

I thought schedules were needed to swap or create those, and that would override my RWE/RWL logic.

If in your schedule you select a "Ship" load, then that overrides the RWE/RWL logic.? Leave "Ship" load blank if you want to use a car's RWE or RWL feature.

In the RWE/RWL fields for "Set Car" you can create and select any load names you want, and optionally where you want the cars to return to.? It you don't supply an address, then if you gave the car a custom load for RWE or RWL, only spurs with a schedule that are demanding that car type and load can be used.

You don't need to use schedules if your using the RWE or RWL feature and a custom load, but you do need to specify the location and track to return the car, which must be a spur.? Returning a car to a yard with a custom load means that the car can only go to a spur demanding a custom load, and that spur needs a schedule.

I tried re-booting several times but still cannot connect. It takes a few moments for the port to activate and appear in the pull-down menu of the DigiIPL? but I still get a com error. Once the indicator light stayed yellow for a few moments indicating an update in progress but ultimately failed as well.?

Do you think an old 4 port usb 2.0 hub/splitter might work?

Inobu: the lowest number com port I can get is com6 without changing it in the device manager.

Thanks,

Bob? ? ? ?

Windows 10 is fine. I've used the Azul download on most of the boxes I've helped

Version 1.13 of Model Railroad Switch List And Manifest Formatter (MR SLAM Formatter) is now available for free download from the website;

New Features in version 1.13

• Added an option to choose between 1 and 5 blank lines between locations on manifests, see manual section VIII – AE. For switch lists also added this option to choose between 1 and 5 blank lines between trains, but only if the option for “one train per page” is deselected. See manual section VIII – AM.
• Added an option to indent location comments by 0, 15, or 30 points (0, 0.21, or 0.42 inches). See manual section VIII – Y for more information.
• In previous versions, if the sort by track option was selected, the program forced the car pick up, car move, and car set out messages to be printed, even if the option was deselected in the car preferences window. (Thanks to user Rick for pointing this out) With this version you can now use the sort by track option without printing the car pick up, set out, or move messages. In this scenario you can use the line colors to determine the movement type.
• Revised coding to execute more efficiently and thus faster by avoiding the need of a “pre-run” of the data to obtain the number of pages in the document.

Bug Fixes in version 1.13

• Fixed a bug that caused the car pick up or car move message to be printed even if the option was deselected. This bug didn’t effect the car set out message.

As always the program is free and doesn't require Excel or other expensive software, just Java and perhaps Adobe Acrobat Reader, both free programs.? It runs on both Mac and Windows, and probably Linux but I don't have a machine to test it.

Now that things have quieted down. I can ask my newbi questions. I read somewhere in this forum that an arduino uno can run X number of readers. How many as I already have an uno collecting dust. A network connection shield is cheaper and easier then trying to run multiple USB connections that my computer has already run out of slots for.?

Not sure if it was this thread or another where someone said it was a easy matter to update trains in operations so that when any car from train X arrives ?at a location with a reader it will “move” the train in operations thus updating all the car locations for that train. And thus JMRI will move the train icon using X&Y coordinates in panel pro.?

Thanks Dan.? I thought about using custom car types as an alternative.? I still don't see how I could use Custom Loads.? I thought schedules were needed to swap or create those, and that would override my RWE/RWL logic.
