PanelPro turn on DCC power

Martin Peake #154261 Hi there, I'm aware this may be a simple question. I am using DCC++ with an Arduino Mega. When I start PanelPro, I have to manually turn on track power by going to the DCC++ menu and selecting?Send DCC++ Command. I then have to type <1> and click on the Send Packet button.? Can I automate this? Regards, Martin

Martin Peake #154263 Thanks Bob. The power does turn on when I select it through the menu. I'm looking for that to happen automatically. Martin

I’m sure you can do that. ?I know people have headless installs for JMRI. ?Maybe rummage in the scripts directory. ?? -=Bob toggle quoted message Show quoted text On Dec 8, 2018, at 8:09 AM, Martin Peake <martinpeake@...> wrote: Thanks Bob.

Martin Peake #154274 Thanks Bob. I tried using the script, but it doesn't work. Nor does the little track power window. the only thing that seems to work is actually typing in <0> or <1>.
Martin Peake #154275 Sorted... I needed to turn on DCC++ power in preferences.
