Thanks. I will give it a try...


Locked Re: Locomotives unable to change direction. #sprog #pr4

 

Wouter: Thanks for clarifying. I must have missed that.
I guess the main thrust in this thread is: "Is this a JMRI matter". And that's where PeterU was correct. So what I refer to is that if the OP has trouble with a Digitrax and MRC decoders, it isn't with the decoder/and now, not JMRI. It's something else.

Louis,

Or turn off Malwarebyte for the download and install and then turn it on again.

Locked Re: Locomotives unable to change direction. #sprog #pr4

 

Morgan: yes, he did say it runs in both directions on DC, but that was without the decoder inside. Whether it runs in both directions on DC with the decoder in place (and programmed to enable DC running) is a whole different matter - and that was my question.

But thanks for making the point, because it was too easy to misread.

As for a PR4 vs a SPROG. I'd prefer the SPROG. But since the original question refers to a "Digitrax DN163K1B in a Kato SD70ACe", then I'd choose the PR4.
And Wouter: He did say it runs both directions on DC.
Just MHO. l'm not criticizing anyone.

Locked Re: Locomotives unable to change direction. #sprog #pr4

 

The simple answer is the decoder is no good. Do you have another you can try in it's place.
Maybe contact Digitrax directly and ask them. This appears to be a Digitrax issue and not JMRI.

Locked Re: Locomotives unable to change direction. #sprog #pr4

 

So many questions!
1) How is this JMRI related?
2) Are you running it under DCC or DC power when it only wants to go in one direction?
3) What command station is active when you run the loco (so not on the program track)?
4) What throttle do you use to run it under DCC?
5) Does it run in both directions on DC (with DC enabled)?
6) What do the directional lights do?

Probably more...

Locked Re: PanelPro not showing status of all sensors on start-up #lenz

 

Thanks for the responses.? After further work I have solved the problem of display on start-up.? I set up a LogixNG command in JMRI to query all sensors.? This is invoked when JMRI starts up and does correctly display the condition of all the sensors.
?
I have some further work to do because a few sensors don't always report properly when turnouts are switched.? This might be because I haven't used twisted cable for the RS connection to the LZV100.? That's the next thing to try...

Locked Re: Saving Throttles #jmrithrottle

 

Allow me some time to reproduce the problem.

I guess there is a bug, any chance to get an output log?
?
Even if the system hangs, once crashed, after reboot, do not start JMRI and look for files named session.log and messages.log in your ~/.jmri/log folder (being on a rpi, I assume a linux path). If you can back both, it would help.

Ken,

If you could upload your current layout config xml data file to the group's ProblemsBeingWorkedOn file folder I can provide better recommendations for the next steps.

Hi Dave
I know you are very busy but I need a little guidance. I did everything Billybob suggested in aspect mode. I changed the SE74 op5 to C. My signal heads and signal masts are able to change the signals on the layout. What is the next step towards making the signals react to the train movement?? The locomotive travels the layout fine but the signals don't change.?
Thanks again

Locked Re: Dispatcher and setting turnouts

 

Jos,

The current configuration has four blocks that include track segments assigned to the four crossover connections. ?That means there are four segments that share a single turnout address "pin30/31 #1-Crossing".?

For example, a train is running from E-Outer to S-Inner with the crossover thrown. ?Another train needs to allocate E-Inner heading towards S-Inner. ?The allocation occurs since there are no apparent conflicts and the crossover is closed.

The solution is to have separate blocks and sections for each straight route, such as X-Inner and X-Outer. ?This way the first train is using E-Outer, X-Outer, X-Inner and S-Inner. ?The second train can allocate E-Inner but has to wait to allocate X-Inner and close the turnout.

I am using Dispatcher to run two trains simultaneously which in general works quite well.
My layout has one double crossover that sometimes causes problems like when?one train is on the crossing and the other train changes the crossing to a different position causing a derailment of the first train.
How can this be prevented?

Locked JMRI and Aegis

 

Hi all,
?
Been struggling with getting the DCC Concepts Aegis to receive throttle commands via Decoder pro throttles.
?
Currently tried having the NCE USB interface in EXT1 as I run a two cab setup (one wired master, one wireless via the "puck") and whilst it would show as online, no commands were being received.
?
I'm assuming it's going to be something simple (e.g run the main cab out to a PCP/UTP/WFD31 then to the master and USB) but any guidance would be appreciated.
?
On the computer front, I have tried with both my Windows 10 and Windows 11 machines to nil change and copied the settings for the USB interface over from the test track it was previously attached to under Powercab.
?


Locked Is there a Log of Terminated Trains in Operations Pro #operationspro

 

I have not been logging my operations sessions and now in hindsight, I want to track the trains run at each session.

Is there a JMRI log that records all the terminated trains in Operations Pro that I could parse the historical data?

Louis,

If you are using MS Edge and MS Defender you will have to ‘Keep’ the download 2 times during the process.

?

Start the download from the ‘Release Notes’ page; a ‘Downloads’ sidebar opens.? The JMRI download appears at the top of the list with a ‘warning’ triangle.? Hover on the entry; click on the 3 dots; click ‘Keep’

?

A ‘Make sure you trust . . .’ pop-up opens.? Click on ‘Show More;’ click ‘Keep Anyway.’
