I created a nice panel for the museum layout and created train tracking markers on it. It works well except for one show stopping thing. At one spot in the loop there is a detection gap between blocks that kills the tracking. The gap is only 1 or 2 seconds. Is there a workaround for this? Increasing train length is not an option. Installing a new detector is not likely either. George

Version 5.11.4+ R87a9dadc80 (Java 17.0.13) The BDL168 is discontinued and replaced with BDL716 which I have two installed on LocoNet. Upon starting JMRI, if the sensor is high as indicated by the LT5C LED, JMRI shows UNKNOWN then INACTIVE when I QUERY (wrong) if the sensor is low as indicated by the LT5C LED, JMRI shows UNKNOWN then INACTIVE when I QUERY (correct) During use the sensors correctly show inactive and active so changed states work correctly. I don't recall this behavior using version 5.10 but I could be mistaken and I also added a second BDL716 at the same time I upgraded JMRI. The problem is JMRI doesn't "see" the trains sitting in the yard although the LT5C clearly shows high/active so I have to run the train out of the block and back in to initialize the sensor at the correct level. //stevemac

I can easily create turnouts, sensors and blocks but I can't delete them from their Panel Pro tables with jython. The only method I found while browsing the class structure was dispose() and that had no effect. So far I am only using the simple jython classes ( if I have the nomenclature correct) in statements like turnouts.newTurnout(...) . -- -Ralph

Hi, I am running DecoderPro since many years without any Problem. I recently got another Laptop with win11Pro preinstalled - Version 24H2. After installation DecoderPro ask me to get started by checking in with a new Loco placed on the programming track. It comes back with the correct decoder and I store it in the Roster. When I exit and restart DecoderPro I click NEW+ to get a new Loco and decoder recognized, but the field at the bottom left ( Read decoder type) is greyed out. After deinstallation i even deleted all remnants from JMRI and even cleaned the registry as far as I could. I reinstalled - did no new Lokomotive, but tried to import a complete Lokpark/Roster from my second laptop - all 104 locos appeared correctly, but I cannot add a new locomotive/decoder because in the new locomotive Window the button at the bottom left (read decoder Type) is still greyd out. And no - I am not Read only.... I red several JMRI topics, I tried to rebuild the coplete Lokpar/Roster (which did nothing) and so I am stuck. I am working with DR5000/Yamorc YD7001 and Z21, I can work with the Throttle without any Problem, so the connection to my centralStation is ok (over WIFI by the way) I am currently on 5.10.4 Release but tried also the 5.11.4 TestRelease with same result. Can I ask to help me ? Vest regards Erik

Hello folks I've been using JMRI for Operations for about 12 years, with good success, thanks in no small part to this forum. I operate a windows 10 system computer with JMRI 5.10 with Java 17. I use a 12 track staging yard which serves a large switching layout representing the Birmingham Industrial District (AL) in the steam era and very early diesel era. The staging tracks hold about 12 to 15 or a few more cars. There are two other smaller C/I yards and 7 interchange tracks, plus individual industries and a steel mill. We have monthly operating sessions. The different trains and staging tracks represent the 9 trunk railroads that served Birmingham in the steam era. Staged trains occupy a designated staging track - they always use the same one and return to the same one. Staging tracks are numbered "-1 or -2", and trains are set for "trains may return to staging". So, a train may leave staging 1-1 and then return to staging 1-2. This has worked fine for years and still does, but with a difference. (The overall goal of the RR's operation is to serve the on-layout steel mill, with multiple trains assembling required materials to deliver to the blast furnaces - not a part of this question. Some trains originate at the two smaller C/I yards, rather than staging.) Since upgrading to version 5.10 a month or two ago, I notice that some trains now show part of a (longer) train with cars going out to the layout and part of that same train being moved from the departure track to the future arrival track in staging. In the past, prior to 5.10, I believe all the cars would leave staging, including those with no destination on the layout, and return to staging. Basically these cars "took a ride" and then returned home. The cars "taking a ride" would be included in the departing train's car count as well as the returning train's car count. I liked having the "extra" cars taking a ride and increasing the interest of the various switching operations, and then returning to staging. As an example, the NB L&N Local Freight, is assigned to staging 1-1, and has 18 cars in staging. The build is successful and shows 9 cars departing for the layout, and 9 cars "moving" from track 1-1 to 1-2. Upon inspection of the build report, I find that these 9 "stay at home" cars have no destination on the layout -- either no room or no allowable location. The 9 cars that do have an available destination go away, get set out and 9 new cars return from the layout. The car count leaving and returning is 9 cars. (It would previously have been 18 out and 18 back) Now, I realize that I could instruct my operators to ignore the "move" instruction for cars remaining/returning to staging, but they get confused about the car count along the train's route. I also realize I can just let the cars sit in staging rather than "go for a ride", but what's the fun in that? There are also situations where the train may rightly move a car from an interchange track to a local industry. This is OK and the car count for the train's advance is "correct". So a "blanket" instruction to operators about ignoring "move" instructions wouldn't work either. So, my question is, "cars returning to staging used to go out on the layout, and take a ride back to staging -- can this be made to happen as it used to?" That is, the "move" instruction would have been a "P/U" instruction for leaving staging, and a "S/O" instruction upon return instead of what I'll call a "move to remain" instruction. Thanks for the help. John Stewart Birmingham, AL

JMRI 5.10 on W11 I thought I would experiment with train tracking on a layout editor panel. I found that when the loco IDs are placed near a block that there is no indication that something has been placed there. After a train has passed through that area then tiny little blocks show up on the panel in edit mode (if everything was done correctly). This makes me grumpy. George

In developing some scripts, I often print to the output, as it helps debug the program. I am noticing that the output is extremely delayed Is there anyway the output can be updated? I use print statements so I can see where the application is currently processing, when I do print, I print the current time and date Then I pause the Script before processing more statements. I use statement like, time.sleep(10) I’m wondering, if using this kind of statement to pause my script causes the output to pause also

I've tried several different ways to get trains to run automatically, but I keep running into ( maybe I should say "creating my own") roadblocks. At 83, I'm not sure how many more wrong ways to do it I can afford to try. I've set signal heads all around the layout. I try to set Blocks, Sections and a Transit to run a train and I get it set to go through several Sections, but then I get to a turnout and it will allow me to set the diverging route out, but the continuing route isn't available. I can't find what's different between the Block on he diverging leg and the one on the continuing leg of the turnout. So, I read some of the JMRI documentation and decided to try using Signal Masts and letting JMRI set up Sections and Transits on the fly. I took a portion of the Panel and deleted the signal heads around a turnout to use the Set Signal Masts menu. It sets the Masts for both routes entering the frog end of the turnout, but there's no option to set a Mast with signals for the points end of the same turnout. Before I waste any more time on rabbit holes, can someone steer me to the easiest way to set up my goals? Or point me at the page in the JMRI documents where I can read the proper steps to take and the order to build it? I'd like to: 1. Be able to send a train autonomously from the modeled layout into a specific staging track. 2. Be able to have trains scheduled to come out of staging into the modeled area at preprogrammed clock times or upon specified events. 3. Be able to manually trigger a train in staging by selecting either the train or the track it's on and select where it needs to go. This forum has been so great thanks to the helpful folks here who have been so willing to share their time and experience.

Can two scripts use the same sensor? Sure i can include then in one script, but just asking. I have one scripted finished controlling signals. The other script I want to control the room lights, the sensor with trigger and API to turn on the room lights.

Hello. I am totally confused on how to do this. I'm using a Lenovo thinkpad and want to move Jmri to a newer Dell laptop. I'm using Jmri 5.8 and java 11. I have read the the files I need to move are in the preferences under file locations. The "users file location" name is C:/users/usr/JMRI/. When I open that file, how do I move it to the new laptop that has JMRI loaded on to it. I am the furthest from be a computer guy and do not want to start all over as it has taken more than 3 yrs. to set up panel pro with track diagram, block detection, signal etc. Could someone please help me using the most layman terms to explain how to do this. My comprehension of computer terms is very small. Thank in advance for any help. -- MARK TAYLOR

Is there a way to keep my model board “as-is” while reconfiguring some of the columns? David Olesen Hackettstown NJ

I remover JAVA 11 and installed JAVA 17 then JMRI 5.10, Would not open or start. Then JMRI 5.11.4 Would not open or start. I have used windows JMRI for loading a new JMRI. I been using JMRI for years. Due to getting hit by fraud my CU had me clear every thing off this computer and reload the applications and files. What to do? Jerry F
