Locked Loconet freezing


 

On JMRI loconet monitor, I can see all my loconet traffic happily displaying and the trunouts and signals all doing what I expect out on the layout.
Suddenly no loconet traffic, and an error 'Unable to parse Loconet message, contents: 9E 61'
?
All sensor icons on my panels, switches etc. cannot be moved, frozen. Turning off track power via the JMRI power button results in track power going off and the power button going yellow (unknown).
No Loconet traffic at all when power is turned off.
?
Loconet appears to come on after a long time, or if I disconncet one of my loconet branches from the command station, the Loconet comes back. If I reconnect the Loconet branch it will work fine for about 10 minutes, then freezes again.
?
Using JMRI 5.8, Java 11, Command station DCS100 via Loconet buffer (RRCirKits).
?
Any advice most appreciated.

That is an "unknown-to-JMRI" message type, and I have never seen that message on LocoNet.

What _other_ LocoNet hardware are you using? Anything that isn't Digitrax or LocoBuffer?

The loconet has RRCirKIts TC64 MkII, Towermans, Digitrax BDL168's hanging off it.
?
If I leave one loconet branch off (I have 3 branches forming a tee), then the issue does not appear.
?
I have checked all my locnet cables to ensure they ok, which they are, so I am a bit miffed as what is going on.
?
None of the devices connected to loconet terminate the loconet.

This is a LocoNet-related problem, not a JMRI problem, so it does not _seem_ to me to be addressable by the jmiusers membership.

I will take my discussion of the problem "off-list" with Darren...
