Steve,

Yeah, I agree. The debugging messages are still in there if you want to use them, but they kill the serial connection. They do work with the Ethernet connection though. They ARE sort of pointless if using the Serial connection to JMRI though. I would say enable them for the Ethernet connection, but disable them for the Serial connection. I think that they might be useful for users getting everything connected and set up, but after that... I am looking forward to you connecting as many readers as you can (6 for the Uno)!

I'm just pleased it's finally working! I thought we had a Serial only sketch that did list connected readers, or am I getting mixed up, there's been a lot of sketches! Lol!

I guess modifying this sketch for the PN532 would be next?

Yes, I'm looking forward to actually connecting up all eight readers and seeing what happens. I'll do this over the next few days.

Michael,

Great stuff! Right, we need to know which Ethernet Shield you have bought!

The sketches Tom and I have been developing on here use a Shield with the Wiznet 5100 chip. Tom already has a Seeed reader sketch using an Arduino Ethernet Shield.?

Once we know thay, we should be sble to progress.

OK, got it. I've been doing OOP since Simula-67 so that's a fine model for me.

I have been using Decoder Pro for some time now.? It is much easier to use when it works but lately, it is a headache. I can put a locomotive on the programming track and it will tell me the programming is being put in the decoder just fine but when I put the loco on the main to run it; nothing was programmed. I have one of those circuit boards that you put in between the command control unit and the programming track that is supposed to increase the power going to the programming track to help in programming. It has a small LED that flashes when it's working and the command control unit also shows a flashing light when it is sending command programming.? Both of those say they are doing their job and Decoder Pro says the same, yet it is not happening. Any ideas on what is going on here? Also, it is not the decoder. This happens to all of them now. This is on a laptop running Windows 10.

I thought of that.? That is a good idea.??

They both end up with the same logic.
Logix is a traditional function configuration (like that which used to be used in Programmable Logic Controllers).
LogixNG is a language construct similar to Object Programming (new stuff).

It's like different human interface looking at the same thing.
Use whichever you're comfortable with.

I've used both. I'm an old dog that grew up with the functional configurations.

For a new installation, is there any reason to use logix as opposed to logixng? It appears that NG is intended to (eventually) completely supplant logix, so probably the answer is no. However I suppose that there may be some straggling bits that haven't been redone yet or something like that.

Hello,

I have detected and issue on the signal mast logic or at least I have the problem. It is related to turnouts that are connected. I have two turnouts that are directly connected one on closed position and the other on throw. On the configuration on the turnout I linked both turnouts and I selected to invert the second one. It worked perfectly so both turnouts are paired and when route is established at them goes straight and in the oposite position goes to another path. When I used the discover to establish the pairing signals all goes perfectly but when I tried to work always the signal is on danger. I forced to change aspect but it is not the correct way. When I analysed the signal mast Logic I released that turnouts aren't correctly. Both where considered as throw instead of one throw and the other closed to be active so it is not possible to link them. If I didn't put this link the pairing is correct with the Signal Mast Logic that is the way I did actually the configuration.

I am using JMRI on its 5.2 version so it is upgraded until last production version, is it a problem on this last version or it was also on previous versions?

Best Regards

Are you saying decoder pro has no issues with ANY brand sound decoder?

Lawrence,

DecoderPro is basically a very smart throttle connected to your DCC (or other) system. What matters is whether your DCC system and the decoder in question will play nicely together. If, for example, your DCC system's programming track output isn't robust enough for a particular sound decoder, well, JMRI can't change that.

What I do find is that this restriction does reduce car movement, which is expected, because if a C/I track is full for a specific location, a car cannot be moved there with a final destination of that location, and cannot use another empty track due to an incorrect location.

You could simply "pool" all of your C/I tracks at that location.? Now if a certain destination C/I needs extra track space, it will steal it from the others.? This way your cars will be blocked by destination.

Hello again,

I currently have a yard where I have classification/interchange tracks set up by location, which works ok.? What I do find is that this restriction does reduce car movement, which is expected, because if a C/I track is full for a specific location, a car cannot be moved there with a final destination of that location, and cannot use another empty track due to an incorrect location.? I would like to make a change to get rid of the restriction of location on my C/I tracks, so that cars from any location can use any classification track.? Without these location restrictions, will OperationsPro attempt to block cars by final destination when sending cars to a C/I track when possible???

Thanks.

Hi Dan/Pete,

Makes total sense now.? Thank you for your help.??
