Locked Configure DS64 tool trouble


 

Digitrax Empire Builder, DB150, PR3, Lenovo laptop w/Win 10-64bit, JMRI 4.11.
I have two DS64's, one of which I have successfully programmed with two output addresses and three routes using the Configure DS64 tool some time ago.
The second one I am trying to do today will not accept more than the first output address. When entering address #2 the box turns blue but I continue to enter #'s 3 and 4. When I hit 'Write Full Sheet' it writes box #1 but box #2 turns blue and everything stops. If I click another tab and then come back to the output addresses they all appear to have been written and show up without a background color. If I try to 'Read Full Sheet' only address #1 is read, address #2 turns blue and addresses #3 and #4 turn yellow. I appear to be able to enter Routes and have them recorded correctly in that tab in the tool. The turnout associated with address #1 can be operated individually from all my devices and will also operate correctly when the routes containing it are activated. I don't see anything wrong with my entries in the Turnout Table but maybe I just don't know what 'wrong' looks like.?
Any help and/or advice will be appreciated.


 

I think I have a bad output #2 on my DS64. When set to Factory Default it will not operate Switch Address #2 but does 1, 3 and 4 correctly. I'll get another unit and try again.

Hi Bob,
FYI , I had the same issue with one of my DS64¡¯s it was position 4. Rather than messing ?around with it. I used it in an area that powered three Tortoise machines.?

Strange happening. I upgraded from JMRI 4.11.6 to 4.14 and suddenly I could program the troublesome unit completely. I thought this was strange but, I'll take it. As I had been using a home-made controller for my turnouts and routes I discovered i had to reverse the wiring on 3 of my switch machines to have them take the proper positions when using the DS64. Everything is good now, except I screwed up my Pi, but that's a whole 'nother deal. ? ?Hi Steve.
