Since the Factory Reset issue for wow decoders was not fixed in 4.8 maybe i should go back to an earlier version
Usually if i wait for a production version i don't have these type problems

Also in the future i will read the release notes rather than just downloading

Terry,

On some systems when upgrading past 4.7.* (so that means 4.8) it is found
better to run the uninstall and insure the &#92;Program Files (x86)&#92;JMRI folder
is gone. That insures none of the prior parts are left around which could
trigger wrong behavior in the newer versions (like 4.8).

These issues are easy to see in the 'Help->Upload Debugging Info' files as
it shows the context of the bits and pieces that are in your environment.
That is why that is a great diagnostic tool for problems.

You haven't answered my question. You have already been told you are
wasting peoples time by not answering a direct question.

So just what was the previous version? A direct answer would be real useful
instead of an indirect answer that leaves us assuming we understand what

I have pointed out why I suspect this is your problem. It would be real nice to

If this is so it would appear you may have fallen foul of the change

Just because you don't think you made any configuration changes
does
not
mean that some may have happened.

So that's why we wanted to get a check of the configuration. So as
you
say,
the connection should be:

System Manufacturer: Digitrax

System Connection: LocoNet LocoBuffer-II

Serial Port: (some COM device)

Command Station Type: DCS50 (Zephyr)

Next would be seeing the console log file to detect errors. I
expect we
will
see an error given what you say isn't happening.

Locked Re: Roster entries - LDT

 

Dave



I absolutely accept your comments. As many accessory decoders do not
require any JMRI programming, what I was after was a "dumping ground" for
Accessory Decoders generally, in order to populate the Roster to show that
relebvant addresses. Maybe all that is needed is an "Miscellaneosu
Accessory Decoder" slot juts with "Basic Info" which would contain Address,
Maker, Type etc, with no ability to "Write" to them?



In passing, I have a Sprog set as Command Station and an Arduino Mega as
Throttle. Adding Decoders to the Roster only permits "Internal" or "DCC++",
but no Sprog address. Would be useful to expand this.

Locked Test version 4.9.2 problems under Windows 7

 

Hi,
I just downloaded and upgraded to newest test version.

Windows 7 completely up to dste, HP touchscreen desktop, 8 gig ram, Latest Java, NCE Power Cab with USB interface.

I use for Decoder Pro only at this time.

Used test version 4.9.1 since it came out with no issues.


The program loads fine. But then it starts responding real slow. Then finally it flashes a screen that says unrecoverable error and many lines referring to Java problems. Never could open one of my existing roster entries. Went into eternal think mode then flashed the unrecoverable error message.

One time, I chose to go into preferences from the Decoder Pro main screen, and it let me look at various screens although it was very slow. Then it said Java Heap and a bunch more stuff, but it all disappeared and the program shut itself down.

Just letting you know.

The PR3 can be used as a stand-alone programmer, in which case it is NOT connected to ANY command station.

However, to reiterate what Walt said, it is NOT capable of interfacing with any MRC system.

At the very least, Digitrax and MRC use different communication protocols, and at the worst you may end up damaging one or both units due to incompatible electrical characteristics.

Thanks, Walt. I just read up on it and it looks like a stand alone instrument for adjusting the decoders, to be used on a test track without the MRC connected. Use it on the test track. Do what has to be done and then check it on the regular layout. I have the knowledge to have the test track connect and disconnect to the rest of the layout. Let me know if I am not right. I thought I saw a place to hook up the MRC to the pr3 . If used this way the power supply in the prc would be isolated from the MRC.

Which MRC command station ()are you using?


Which MRC device are you using for the connection to you computer? 1510 or 1516


What does happen when you try to turn the track power On and Off from JMRI>Tools>PowerControl

Hi Martin,

So that was 5 months ago. Can you give an update on how JMRI works with the PIKO Smart Box (and vice versa)?
