Getting an Error 308 on new setup.

#digitrax #pr4

[email protected] #173282 Afternoon, ? I'm just setting up JMRI on my layout, (N Gauge-not that it matters.)? My system is as follows: ? Zephyr 50 PR4 PTB-100 Jmri Version 3.10.1-r28327 ??? Java 1.6.0_37 Configuration ??? Digitrax ??? LocoNet PR3 ??? Com4??? ??? PR3 Stand-alone ? PR4 has a blinking Green, Solid Red and Blue indicators PTB-100 has a steady Green and after trying to read from a decoder I see a flashing Yellow ? Problem, keep getting an Error 308 ? Have tried a Soundtraxx Tsunami installed in an Atlas 2-8-8-2 and an Atlas S2 with ESU Factory installed. Both failed. ? Any Ideas what my issue is? ? Thanks ? Best Regards Royce Lacey 804-400-5766 ?
[email protected] #173287 JMRI 3.10 is rather dated. The Digitrax PR4, contrary o the PR3, prefers Direct Byte mode while the PR3 worked when in Paged mode.? Changes were added to later versions of JMRI regarding this preference. So I suggest you try and use the PR4 in Direct Byte. Marc
Breezlys All Messages By This Member #173288 Royce, In addition to Marc's suggestion to update to a newer version of JMRI, if you're trying to use the PR4 as a stand-alone programmer you should get rid of the PTB-100. It's not needed with the PR4 and anecdotal evidence indicates it actually prevents the PR4 from reading some makes/models of sound decoders. HTH, Steve "Breezlys"
Royce Lacey #173346 开云体育 Sorry for the delay.? Had several other items to address today. ? Thanks for the help.? The Direct mode alone did not fix the issue.? Your suggestion of taking off the PRB-100 was also needed.? The two suggestions together corrected the issue and I was able to read and program several locos.? I still have and issue with one that has a older Tsunami decoder that doesn’t read it correctly.? Guess I will try a reset with the Zephyr. ? Thanks for your help. ?

[email protected] #173349 You might try using the PTB-100 with the older Tsunami decoder and the PR4.? The combination might work, then again it might not.? My setup has the PTB-100 as a permanent fixture to my Programming environment.? I only use older Tsunami decoders as I have'nt purchased a new decoder in years.. Marc
