Re: Cannot change horn, no bell
#esu
Paul, Where are you located in Utah?
I am trying to set up an ESU Loksound 5 decoder programmed by my dealer.?
?
The prime mover sound works, I can change the master volume ok, the lights work, I can dim the lights ok in the Function Outputs tab, I try to change CV163 (horn) and CV164 (bell) but the horn sound does not change and it sounds like a plastic toy. It does respond to the master volume.? Default Sound slots 3 (horn) at 225 and 4 (bell) at 70. Changing these values does nothing.
?
The bell has never made a peep... it is like there are no sound files loaded. (I do not have a Loksound programmer).?
?
What am I missing?
Thanks for your help,
-Paul in Utah

Re: LogixNG table editor and CSV question

Erik,
Try renaming the .txt file as .csv.

That results in a Excel file with one column and all records (all columns) compressed together per row, hence useless.

Dan, thanks for the expanded information in the trains log.? However, I can't figure out how you calculate the "Partial 28/80 cars" numbers.? Can you enlighten me?

Yea, but: To prevent a local move for trains that do only drops/lifts I have to do an edit, since you defaulted to local moves 'yes.'? Nit, and I've already edited my stuff.

Which version of Excel do you have? I have Excel 2010 and it supports export to TAB separated CSV file
I have MS Office 2010.
Two versions of export to .csv are presented when using "save as":
1. CSV (MS-DOS) *.csv
2. CSV separated by list-separation sign *.csv
?
In both cases the exported .csv file uses semi-colon (";"), as described in my previous message. Summary: due to the fact that EU decimal (,) and thousands (.) separation is different from US separation, a semi-colon is used as record separation.
If I want to use tab-separated records I have to export as "Text (tab separated) *.txt".
Causing my file to loose any Excel link.
?
Hence my upcoming request to have this third option when retrieving .csv files, (besides "tab" and "comma" separation) for "semi-colon" separation.

Erik,
Which version of Excel do you have? I have Excel 2010 and it
supports export to TAB separated CSV file.
See this documentation for Microsoft 365, Excel 2024, Excel 2021
and older versions.

Hi Dave, I discovered why my .csv file uses a semi-colon. Please
see my previous message.
?
The only solution (in light of what I described there) is for
JMRI to allow a third option (besides tab and comma) namely a
semi-colon.
I intend on submitting this request to the developpers.

Re: DCC-EX Voltage/current meter
#dcc-ex
Thanks, Daniel.
?
If that used to work on your hardware, I'm guessing the DCC-EX devs have removed support for it. You'd need to ask them why.
Here's what I get with the same commands on my CSB1:
[c] ?TX: Read Track Current Cmd?
[c CurrentMAIN 4 C Milli 0 4998 1 4998] ? RX: Meter reply: name CurrentMAIN, value 4.00, type C, unit Milli, min 0.00, max 4998.00, resolution 1.00, warn 4998.00
[JI] ?TX: Unknown Message: 'JI'
[jI 4 53] ? RX: Unknown Message: 'jI 4 53'
?
The response to your <c> request is <X>, which is the unhelpful "error" response. My <c> request returns a number of useful values that JMRI uses to populate the meter.
?
I could add support for the JI syntax to JMRI, but your result would be the same.
Here are the docs for JI:
Response: Repeated for each Channel/Track: <j I track current>
?> track: channel/track
?> current: current in milliamps
?
So you are seeing 0 for track and current, where I am seeing 4 and 53.

I would really like undo as I always make a mistake right before I make a big change and have not saved.?
But I understand undo is a lot more than just adding a keyboard shortcut.?

Gopal,
If you are using the Metal L&F, then you need to use the control key instead of the command key.
