Problem with Siglet

Engine Only Responds to Short Address
I do not know if I did something while running my engine on WiThrottle or something happened spontaneously.? My engine will not run on any throttle(UT4 or DT500) when the long 4 digit address is selected. It runs fine if I select the 3 digit address however.? I do I recover my 4 digit address.? 3 digit is 127 the 4 digit address is 7127.
Thanks in advance for your help. Bob |

Re: JMRI Decoder Pro, EasyDCC, and SoundTraxx
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýHi Don, ? Yes, read Steve¡¯s doc.? ? If I remember correctly, if you are able to connect via Wi-Fi then connect to the Raspberry Pi Hotspot and use VNC to connect and configure the Pi as needed. ? If you have to connect wired then I think you might need a keyboard. ? It has been a while since I set mine up. ? Victor ? ? Victor Gilbert Supertendent Sugarwood Railroad ? ? From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Don Weigt ? Thanks, Victor and others, ? I got an HDMI cable today, and have the JMRI home page displaying on my monitor! The USB mouse works, too.? :--) ? I suppose I'll need a keyboard connected to the Pi to configure it to connect to the router, at least. I'm debating whether to borrow the one from our primary computer, or spend the $20 or so to get another wireless keyboard and mouse for it. It they could serve as backups to the ones on our primary computer, too. ? It's beastly hot here this afternoon, and the car is out baking in the hot sun. I think I'll read Steve's documentation for a while first! ? Don Weigt Connecticut |

Thanks Dan, Yes, closing the window and re-opening does keep the column formatting the same. Sometimes I just keep opening windows using the PanelPro screen instead of using the task bar.

I should also note that column widths and order are not saved for the edit schedule window.? The details for a window are saved by window name, and in the case of edit schedule, the window name includes the name of the schedule.? This would mean that you would have to adjust each one independently, which I found annoying, so I provide with I believe are the best widths and order.

Hi Bob,
If you resize a column it should stay that way unless you open a second window.? For example if you open the Cars window, the window location, and all of the columns get saved when you close the window.? Now if you open it again, it should be exactly the way it was.? Now if you open a second Cars window, that will have the defaults, you can again change it the way you want, and it can be different.? If this isn't they way its working for you, please let us know.

Suggestion for next release
#operationspro
This is a piddly suggestion (isn't it nice we are at the point where we can entertain piddly suggestions?);? when I resize a column in, say, cars or schedules, the column would stay resized unless resized again? Currently if a column is resized it reverts back to its original size when you leave the screen.
Thanks, Bob Burke |

Re: JMRI Decoder Pro, EasyDCC, and SoundTraxx
Hi Don,
I use Steve Todd's image with my EasyDCC system and a PTB 100 connected to my program track.. I also have a Raspberry Pi connected to the EasyDCC.? I access via wired and wireless using the hotspot in Steve's image.? I like this setup very much. Here is the link to RealVNC the remote desktop app (??). Steve's documentation is good and gives the required passwords and everything you should need to get started. Victor? |

Re: Raspberry Pi Servo pHAT
Thanks Paul,
My board should arrive tomorrow so I can start experimenting. I have already prepared my JMRI preferences (running on the RPi) by adding the Raspberry Pi Foundation as a connection, and configured as RPi GPIO. Once set up in preferences, you can add turnouts in the table associated with this connection. My assumption is that you connect each turnout servo to a specific GPIO pin for control. We will see if that works. Looking forward to your script as well ... Richard |

¿ªÔÆÌåÓýDave,Upon reflection perhaps it might be more logical and therefore aid the learning process if it was the CPE that took the lead and PE was accessed through CPE. That would separate out one use of the word from the other use as in the LE? Just a thought. Dave - Dave On 30 Jul 2019, at 09:49, Dave Roberts via Groups.Io <dccdaveroberts@...> wrote:

¿ªÔÆÌåÓýDave,Nicely put together! As always and as we have talked about before I believe some of the confusion comes about because of the use of the multiple uses and intended meaning of the word ¡°Panel¡±. Your initial description of the PE might be better described as: The distinction between the two is at best marginal so why not remove the PE and substitute CPE? The other use comes when using the LE where this deals with the actual layout design rather that the control panel design . In this case it is the layout that can be made up of different PANELS (specific areas of a layout). I believe it would be much more advantageous to make the distinction to aid understanding and so avoid confusion. Dave - Dave

Re: JMRI Decoder Pro, EasyDCC, and SoundTraxx
Hi, Steve, I intend to use your free image with my Pi. I have downloaded and unzipped the image, written it to a microSD chip, and installed it in my new Pi. The power supply arrived today, so I assembled it and powered it up for the first time. The red LED lit up, and the yellow one next to it flashed rapidly for a few seconds at least. Success! I didn't get much farther, though. I thought I had an HDMI cable to connect a monitor, but don't. Did plug in a mouse, but couldn't really tell if it did anything. Looks like a trip to Best Buy tomorrow for their least expensive HDMI cable that's in stock. Best Buy lists a $6 cable with a $6 shipping charge, and a $10 cable I can pick up at the store, maybe. Says it's in stock at my local store, but not on display! Probably could have gotten one delivered cheaper from New Egg. Don Weigt Connecticut |

Re: "Timeout talking to command station" and "Failed to get response from Command Station"
Just to put a period on this question, the LocoBuffer USB arrived today.? I installed it per the instructions, and it works like a charm.? That pretty much says to me the LocoBufferII was either blown, or the drivers were mis-configured.? But the cables, the computer, and the command stations are all fine.
Back in business!? Thanks again, everyone. |

Re: Test version 4.17.2 of JMRI/DecoderPro is available for download
Ken:
I Installed 4.17.3ish and that has fixed the problem Sorry I couldn't respond faster this install is on a club layout and I have to go there to do anything, so sometimes it takes me a bit...I also have to uninstall non working packages and reinstall the last working one each time. Nelson. |

Re: New 4.15.7 and CMRI
PJ,
The daily build, I posted a link earlier today, has the fix for the baud rate on CMRI issue. 4.15.8 through 4.17.2 have issues with selecting the baud rate. -Ken Cameron, Member JMRI Dev Team www.jmri.org www.fingerlakeslivesteamers.org www.cnymod.com www.syracusemodelrr.org |
