Hi,
?
I get the following warning messages in the JRMI console:
?
17:36:34,730 jmri.jmrit.roster.RosterSpeedProfile ?WARN ?- Throttle destroyed before zero length[-31.404144] remaining. [Allocated Section Block Change on MainEast]
17:37:19,825 jmri.jmrit.roster.RosterSpeedProfile ?WARN ?- Throttle destroyed before zero length[0.520813] remaining. [Allocated Section Block Change on MainEast]
17:37:19,826 jmri.jmrit.roster.RosterSpeedProfile ?WARN ?- distance remaining is now 0, but we have not reached desired speed setting -1.0 v 0.4920635 [Allocated Section
?
What does that mean ?
?
Many thanks.

Re: Text labels appears only partially

Bonsoir Jean-Fran?ois,
Je pense que vous êtes fran?ais ??
?tes vous? un utilisateur de JRMI depuis longtemps ? Pour ma part j'utilise JRMI seul, depuis environ 6 mois sur un circuit très simple. Mon idée est d’automatiser autant que possible ce layout, pas toujours simple. Peut-être pouvons nous nous aider mutuellement ? J'habite en région parisienne prés de Montmorency.
A bient?t peut-être.

There are many possible issues. ?
If you upload the layout data xml file to the group's ProblemsBeingWorkedOn file folder, we can review what you have done and provide feedback.

Subject: [jmriusers] Problems With dispatcher
Date: Tuesday, March 11, 2025 4:48 AM
Hello Friends
I would describe myself as a beginner when it comes to JRMI,been working on it around a week
The end goal is to automate a train.
As you see above i have entered Turnouts sensors and Signal Heads.I used SSL and i admit it was messy,so maybe thats come back to haunt me,but when i run a train Manually it seems to run nicely.Above you see a Train occupied in Platform 1.
Does it look okay?
So to the problem.I created a simple transit,using 3 sections Platform 1 to? a Turnout Block to A Mainline(left to right.
Everything looks good until i create a train in Dispatcher,as soon as i do the Dispatcher tells me the train is "waiting"and nothing happens
I have noticed the Green Lamp you see on Platform turns from Green to Red as soon as i run dispatcher,so its saying ahead is occupied but where.
Can anyone advise or ask me Questions to help solve
Again thanks for your time.

when creating a layout in PanelPro, text label appear partially only.
example : if i put "Module 14" i only see "Module..."
we have tested :
with and without space in the text
with or without numbers at the end
short or long text
always the same results.
Am i doing something wrong or is it a graphical bug ? This is a graphical bug in JAVA (or maybe some sources of java), when running of Windows, for some Windows display settings, with some JMRI panel "Label" font settings_in my experience_. It is no, not in my experience from a JMRI problem, though! If you change the Windows display "scaling" setting to 100%, JMRI doesn't have a problem (on my machine). But with the Windows display "scaling" setting at 150% or 200%, I have problems with the "elipses" (i.e. "Partial-label ...") showing up. The best way I have found to "solve" this, for various fonts and various font sizes is to change the "Fixed Width" to be a little bit larger than the number of pixels that are required to display the text. In "Panel Editor", I add the Label, then right-click the Label and select "Edit Text Content & Settings". Then I increase the "Fixed Width" setting until the full text shows up in the "Preview" window, without the elipsis. And then update the panel. And repeat on any other Label on the panel that has an elipsis. In "Layout Editor", I "right-click" aLabel with elipsis. Then select "Margin" then "Set Margin Size". Type in a margin and click "OK". If that doesn't work, increase the margin again and check. Repeat until you have the size "right". And repeat on any other Label on the panel that has an elipsis. I do not use "Control Panel Editor", so cannot give recommendations with that tool.

Sure enough, I'd left the 'SUBSYSTEM=="tty"' out of my udev rule, so perhaps that's why it was creating a link to the usb bus device rather than the tty device.? Working fine now.? Thanks Dave & Trevor for the help with this.

Has anyone downloaded 5.11.4 to try the new route feature?? Feedback on the new route feature appreciated.

Re: NCE PowerPro with USB - no AIU getting to JMRI

Ken,
?
That's what I mean.....If JMRI is seeing 7.3.0 then its seeing a NCE USB Module. Trying to use the NCE USB Module
on the PH5 may be the problem.? Based on the reporting of 7.3.0
?
Wasn't the PowerCab working?
?
Just have to wait for the next reply.?

Re: NCE PowerPro with USB - no AIU getting to JMRI
#nce
The NCE USB device gives an id of 7.3.0 -> 7.3.7 depending on the jumper settings. If it was an older NCE USB, it gave 6.3.0 -> 6.3.7. The idea was the device made different ids for the software (JMRI) to recognize and help refine what command are supported or not. ? The PH5 command station gives an id of 8.0.0 -> and up, depending on the firmware updates. ? -Ken Cameron, Member JMRI Dev Team

Interesting.? Thanks Trevor.? I'll go back and look at my udev rules again tomorrow.? Maybe I'm doing something that is causing it to link to the usb bus device rather than the tty.

I should also mention that I didn't manually set any options in jmri.conf or elsewhere when I set this up.? I just added the udev rules, then went in to JMRI and the DCCEX serial port was there for selection.
?
Trevor
|
OK, I should have checked first, and typed later...
?
I've just checked my laptop, and the DCCEX symbolic link isn't as I remember it.? It is just like Dave Sand's example.? Possibly I saw the bus/usb/xxx/yyy type of link when I was setting up my udev rules and before I had my final version established.
?
My current udev rule for my DCC-EX system is:
?
SUBSYSTEM=="tty", SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{idProduct}=="xxxx", ATTRS{idVendor}=="yyyy", SYMLINK+="DCCEX"
?
As you can see, the symbolic link name I'm using is the same as what Joel is trying to use (DCCEX), and JMRI works with it.

So, based on my system, I can only say that JMRI can work with a DCC-EX system using a symbolic link to the USB port called "DCCEX".

I tried this again with the symlinks prefaced with "tty", but I still see the same behavior.? From the log it looks like the code is trying to connect to the devices before the additionl device names from the config file have actually been enumerated by the serial communication subsystem.? ??

Thank you Noel and Pete!
Noel - that’s pretty much how I have it set up.?
Pete - thanks for jogging my memory about putting 5# of coffee in a 3# can. ?I’ve done that before, just forgot. ?I don’t move cars “there” often so the 0’ long spurs will work nicely with the location and tracks I have set up as Noel describes.?

How is JMRI seeing 7.3.0 on a New System? That's seem its on the old system.

Re: After Windows 11 upgrade I can no longer communicate via NCE USB module
#nce
#windows
I have put all four of the jumpers back on the board and changed to 19,200 in the advanced section.
I got a normal startup, I will monitor.
Thanks for the great help.
Bill
_____________________________________________ Bill Suarez - +1 508-735-7877 - wsuarez@...
Bill S, ? The 7.3.0 in the log says you have no jumpers on the NCE USB. That code tells JMRI that the system is a PowerCab and it has the old 1.28 firmware.. The error message says that’s not what you are telling the system connection. ? If you have two profiles, one for a PowerCab so you can use it to have a programming track, another profile for an SB5, and both have the 1.65 firmware, you would do best to set all jumpers on the NCE USB. Then use 19,200 baud for the connection.
You should see it report as 7.3.7 in the log which means all systems and both profiles would work correctly with their respective settings. ? With a SB5 system it is important to set the right command station so JMRI know that only ops mode programming will work. ? -Ken Cameron, Member JMRI Dev Team

I'm not sure if this will assist, but on my Linux laptop, I added udev rules to give my DCC-EX system a name that doesn't changed based on order of connecting USB devices, or which port it gets plugged into.? JMRI works successfully using that udev symbolic link name.
?
I'm not able to fire that laptop up right now, but my recollection is that my symbolic link looked very similar to what Joel showed (i.e. pointing to bus/usb/xxx/yyy)
?
I will check later today and confirm - just in case it helps.
