Re: Turnouts
Larry, Focus on getting the turnouts working right from the turnout table first. Each turnout is a pair of events, thrown/closed. The feedback is normally MONITORING. Once that is correct, then the

Re: Turnouts
Larry, Turnouts should never use 'toggle'. They should always use two events, one for normal and the other for reverse. The only time you would use 'Toggle' (alt action) is if you are controlling

Re: Turnouts
No. JMRI routes set JMRI Turnouts to a specific direction. There¡¯s no need to create a workaround to do that, that¡¯s what they should already be doing. If you¡¯re not getting consistent operation

Reporting a decoder file error in TCS FL2/4 function decoder
A few years ago I reported an error in the light function settings in the TCS function decoders, today I found the same error is still in place so am reporting it once again. I don't remember if at

Re: Turnouts
So I¡¯ve figured out that if I want to build a route that I want to *always* go a certain way, that I almost need to configure a turnout as two separate turnouts. One for each route that I want the

OK¡ so that may have resolved the startup issue. But when I build a route and click on the route all the turnouts just change to their opposite state. I was thinking this has something to do with

Re: Turnouts
Larry, I'm not sure why Turnouts shouldn't be called Turnouts and entered in the JMRI Turnout table. There is a button in the CDI to do just this. Your friend is correct that there is no actual

Re: Turnouts
Perhaps you misunderstood what your friend said, or you got some not-so-good advice. The Tortoises on your layout should be controlled by Turnouts in JMRI, i.e. via the Turnout table. Yes, there are

Re: Bachmann Street Car
Ken: Perhaps stating the obvious but having selected a decoder that seems like it might be close and thus "checked the box", it is a good idea to read all the CV values and save them as the default.
