Re: DecoderPro: cannot read/write values with LocoNet connection
#loconet
James, If you¡¯ve built the HDL keypad as part of the HDL command station, you may be able to watch the loconet packets with JMRI (assuming the HDL setup transmits the packets to LocoNet). That might

I think that the most likely cause of the service track failure-to-program is that the Digikeijs DR5000 doesn¡¯t understand the particular LocoNet commands JMRI is using to request a programming

James, Unless you have "special hardware", NMRA's "programming on the main" operations are unable to _read_ CV values. This is a limitation of the original NMRA specification, and is a limitation of
