Locked Re: OpenLCB Fast Clock

 

Nom,

I wrote the OpenMRN C++ implementation for both the time server and client for OpenLCB.? I haven't messed with it in a little while, but I'll have a more detailed look at it again over the weekend.? We are supporting a commercial manufacturer with the OpenMRN implementation for their Fast Clock product that should launch this year, so getting back into it over the weekend has overlapping value with that effort.

Stay tuned...

Thanks,

I am going to try to get the next release of JMRI, i was getting the antivirius software blocking it.

the Error I get when JMRI starts is as follows:

Unable to create connection "MRC" (M).
System connection MRC provides a null manager for the interface jmri.ThrottleManager

everything is plugged in correctly. baud rates set as suggested.
Any more help is greatly appreciated.

Locked Re: CATS Designer XML does not parse when CATS is started - Gets Error that on statement 2 DOCUMENT is not found.

 

Perry,

There is no style sheet, so you are not missing anything.

I received the sample XML file that you created.? It loaded fine for me in both designer and CATS (JMRI versions 4.12 and 4.15, which span your 4.14 - I will upgrade to JMRI 4.17.4 and try that).? I think I need to see your error logs.? This forum does not accept attachments so try to save the JMRI system console and paste it here or copy the output of the system console or check if you have a session.log in your JMRI folder with anything of value in it and paste into a post to this group.

The size of the programming track feeders matters a lot besides the length.
I've got two layouts with 15' to 25' of feeder but used 12AWG wire. Have not
had issues with reading. The PTB is right next to the programing track
however.

V4.17.4 is currently the latest version released on 10 Sept 2019.
so seems it is reporting correctly.
Locked Re: BLI Paragon 2 and 3 reading

 

Tim,

I would go the route of running the installer 'run as administrator', just
to make sure. That should solve any permission issues. One other step is
doing this after a reboot and having never touched JMRI, just to insure that
it isn't 'open'. Now the installer should be seen as something needing admin
rights and trigger the security prompt to 'make changes to my computer' but
doing the right click and 'run as admin' will insure that.

Otherwise it sounds like you did the usual stuff.

Everything works fine, but when I check the system status it gives me the correct version (3.8, as opposed to the 3.6 associated with the older command station) but gives the name of the command station as the previous LZV100. Probably a simple correction, right?
About all I can do is add LZV200 to the list ( which currently includes the LZ100 and LZV100 ). The LZV200 is reporting the same hardware type as the older models.

I'm no further help. The whole virusscanner (installation prevention) idiocy that rules the Windows world was one of the three main reasons to drive me to Linux. The increasing hassle with drivers is another, and the third is between me and Bill Gates. :-)

You can see the steps in the build and release process here:?

A long time ago, there was a step included to submit the released Windows executable to McAfee / Norton for whitelisting. That stopped working due to some changes on their and the step was removed. IIRC, they required running some Windows executable that wasn¡¯t available during our release process, which is run on a mix of Linux and Mac machines.

If somebody could write up detailed instructions for submitting to whitelist(s) that can be done from a non-Windows machine, I¡¯d be happy to add those.? If they¡¯re scriptable, that would be even better, as building a test/production release already takes quite a bit of time and attention already. Automation really helps reduce errors.

Alternately, if somebody wants to take on the role of doing the submissions once the files are available (typically a day or so before the release email), that would be _really_ great.
