How to remove block assignments from LE tracks 7
My original project was to combine two LE Panels, the Main railroad panel and the 5 track passenger station panel. Knowing there isn’t a quick way to join them, I proceeded to redraw the 5 track station onto the Main panel. Without realizing that the > Track Options > Automatically Assign Blocks to Tracks was turned on, every piece of track was assigned an AUTOBLK: ##, which I didn’t want nor need. I won’t need block detectors nor signaling. Any signals will be SSL to determine the turnout positions. Now I want to know how to remove block assignments from the newly drawn tracks since, as I see it, nothing can be deleted while they are assigned. I attempted to rename the unwanted blocks to a common name so when I could break the assignments I might only need to delete one large block. What I ended up with was, upon restarting JMRI everything opened properly the Main LE panel, The WiThrottle window, and the JMRI (center of screen) logo. The PanelPro control window did _not_. I didn’t have a way to close the program or make any preference changes. Since I put in so much work, so far, is there a fix to get JMRI to launch completely or is it easier to cut my losses and go back to a previous .xml file. Still how do I remove block assignments properly? I’m stumped. Thanks in advance for reading. John Bauchiero - NCE PH-Pro & PowerCab, RasPi4, DCC-EX - JMRI 5.11.4 - Java 17.0.12

JMRI Profile File Written With Zero Bytes 4
Hopefully this can help others who experience the same problem. This has happened 3 or 4 times in the last 5 years - so not often. When opening JMRI, you get the dreaded unexpected EOF error loading the profile. Sure enough - the profile file is zero bytes. Easy fix - in the active jmri-profile folder there is a backupPanels folder under the railroad name. Simply copy that file back under the railroad folder - rename to whatever the profile file is called in your settings. Hopefully it is recent enough you didn't lose much of anything. The backup interval looks like when the profile is saved. All shutdowns have been nominal. No idea why it happens...Maybe it's an RPI thing, maybe it took to long to write and I did a system shutdown before it was ready? Who knows. The folder structure is below. For more info - Specs: RPI 5 bookworm with all latest updates running JMRI 5.10. The log file is below - it shows whenever this happens there is a compare failure. Guess that writes out 0 bytes and keeps on truckin...

Double light mast only changes diverging 2
I created/uploaded a small test case to show the issue I'm having with my layout. /g/jmriusers/files/ProblemsBeingWorkedOn/sml_test_5_multiple_turnouts.xml I may be confused but I'd expect both of these incoming masts to display aspect similarly. The top row works as expected based on which route is clear based on exiting turnout. The bottom row for diverging works differently.

Jmri panel pro program issues 3
i am using a dell latest window laptop using latest no test version i open a profile in the past and all the windows I ask to open does open with a window openning last with the program name and profile name. i open that same profile and get all the windows except the last. instead a window labelled ‘decoder pro: all entries’ which is blank . And dont get the final window. if i close the new window it closes the program what has gone wrong with my profile. i dont want the new window and want the last window back what do i do? tony

Signal Controller Board Suggestions 8
I have JMRI LogicX working through a tree/ladder of turnout to set 'a road in a yard' to the 'Main' from a touch sensor on a Panel. Due to space, I am using two x three-way turnouts meaning I cannot use the turnout motor internal switches to switch leds on the Dward Signals on each road. On the screen, I have a 'sensor' light next to the Road when it is clear to the Main. All good so far and works fine. Looking now for an addressable signal controller board to receive a JMRI command to turn a 'dwarf' signal from 'red' to 'green' when the sensor on the panel is selected (when it sets the required road to main). The signal controller will connect to an AUX bus connected to, in this case, a NCE PowerPro Controller. What Signal Controller Boards are you using to take the command to change the LEDs from JMRI? happy to answer any clarifying questions! Thanks Randall

Help understanding Dispatcher/Transit 5
I have a simple 3 train yard connected to another block with several turnouts as below My desire is to have a train leave the yard then run another transit continuously. Since a continuous transit requires first/last section to be the same it seems this requires two transits. I thought I could create a transit to start in BY1 and end in Central then chain to the next transit. My problem is with the leaving yard transit (which is terminate when done for testing). As soon as it allocates the Central section, the mast turns red/red and the train never moves. If I click the mast green the train moves and stops in Central as expected. So, how can I make this to allow move train out automatically after allocation?

JMRI and LogicX driving Signals 3 #signals
Wanting to drive a Signal based on a decision 'to set green / red' from a LogicX - already set a sensor 'light' on the screen and switch turnouts,, looking for guidance to then set a dwarf signal. unable to use turnout motor switches as there are two x three-way turnouts used. If there is a write up or Youtube I would appreciate in pointer, all i have seen so far are track sensor based and switched from a single turnout motor. Happy to answer any questions... thanks Randall

Experimental "Flatpak" distribution of JMRI 17
A user has been interested in possibly distributing JMRI as a “FlatPak” for Linux. I don’t know much about that method, but apparently the distribution file also includes the JRE, so it’s (at least in theory) easier to install. As an experiment, you can find a 5.10 distribution in this form at https://github.com/JMRI/JMRI/releases/download/v5.10/jmri.5.10.flatpak For more on this, see JMRI/JMRI Issue 11658: https://github.com/JMRI/JMRI/issues/11658 Is anybody familiar enough with this distribution method to be able to try it? Is this something that we should do on an ongoing basis? Bob — Bob Jacobsen rgj1927@...

Reorienting a turnout without completely deleting it. 6 #layouteditor
I am not sure what happened, but I have one turnout that ended up in the wrong orientation. I have the turnout and block detection and turnout position sensors all working, so I am trying to figure out if there is a way to just reorient the turnout without completely deleting it and then setting everything up again. I was looking for a way to "disconnect" the turnout, like you can do in Anyrail, but was able to figure out how to make that work. Any simple solutions or do I just need to delete and then re-add a new turnout in the correct orientation? -- Heath @ Human[c]ity http://www.humancity.org http://www.riversidetransfer.nyc http://www.manhattanmodelers.com

PanelPro New Feature - Panel Swipe Navigation on Tablet 11
Team, I have about 70 control panels and I navigate them using buttons with links. While this works fine, I can see my panel count only growing with time. The thought occurred to me of the possibilty of adding a swipe function to navigate from Panel to Panel from a web view (tablet). For example, if you could assign a Panel to a SWIPE GROUP then swiping right or left would take you to the next panel in the group. Does this sound like it would be useful to others? -- Many thanks in advance!

Finding a block 4
I renamed a block via a layout panel and all that happened is it created a new block with the old name, which I can't now find. Using PanelPro->Tools->Where Used to search for the block it says this: Block: UBU5 (IB:AUTO:0023) Listener count: 3 Layout Block references UBU5 (ILB19) The block is called UBU5 so that bit I understand but how can I find the layout block reference? Thanks Chris

Dispatcher continuous transit fails after a few loops 3
Sometimes it's only one or two loops. This time the train went maybe 5-6 then stopped presumedly because of the double mast stop (I don't see that specific aspect at https://www.jmri.org/xml/signals/basic/aspects.xml). It's not always the same mast sometimes it's the other double mast. Why can't it allocate sections when nothing else is on the track? Notes: I'm using 5.11 and all turnouts are ghost blocks between hardware detection blocks. Everything is auto-generated (paths, sections, SML). After this screen I restarted JMRI and tried again it only made it to the second block (pic 2) even though I manually clicked "Allocate Next" until all blocks allocated but it never restarted. There is nothing in the session.log

Loading table content and panels xml file using MacOS Mongomery from Dropbox - Error Loading File Appears 3 #mac-os
Hi All Would anyone be able to assist with this issue. History back ground I have been using windows 10 PC's for many years with no issues and dropbox to store the information. This has been working without any issues for over 10 years. Now the PC's have been at different locations and still operating. Now one of the PC's is normally has the preferences configured to the railway hardware and the other PC the preferences are set to Simulator. Absolutely nothing new there works amazing. Loading Issue using Montgomery OS Now Moving on to the issue now. I was presented with the opportunity to change to a Mac mini using Catalina OS and Montgomery OS. I loaded the latest test version of JMRI onto Montgomery and all set up correctly in simulation mode and again using dropbox . When I tried to load table content and panels and selecting the correct xml file version. I get these error messages as shown below So then I decided to try using Catalina OS and repeat the same JMRI set up with Dropbox again. To my surprise when I selected load table contents and panels and the same xml file version. Every thing loads correctly as expected with no issues appreciate any assistance or ideas to resolve the issue Regards Peter

Stop All Auto Trains bug
All, Windows 10 JMRI 5.11.3 Noticed while running four of my trains in auto that if I have a derail and I try to stop all the trains some of them slow down to stop, but resume on their own upon reaching next block. In Auto Trains window I press "Stop All Auto Trains". All trains start slowing and show "Resume". Some trains then contiue and show "Stop". Had not noticed this in version 5.8. Roger

JMRI & Engine Driver Issue 3 #enginedriver
Hi, Members 1.1k Edit Posted 1 hour ago One for the more learned amongst us to have a look at. I have the following set up : NCE Powercab, JMRI running on a Raspberry Pi via NCE USB using M Steve Todd's files, Panel Pro with a touchscreen panel to operate turnouts, turnout motors are DCC Supplies Cobalt Digital IP. The touchscreen panel works exactly as intended to control the turnouts. I would like the ability to use my phone to become a second throttle. With Wi-Throttle server running, I connected my phone to the WiFi network created by the Raspberry Pi, opened up the Engine Driver app & connected to the server. And here is where it goes wrong. Typing a loco address and then trying to move something , absolutely no response from the loco. If I try to operate a turnout motor via the accessory address , it works perfectly. The loco isn't stuck in consist mode as it works off the bat from the NCE handset using the same DCC address so as far as I know I'm not using the wrong address. On the Wi Throttle server screen I can see the phone throttle is connected and even the address of the locomotive I'm trying to control. The Track power is on. Can anyone give any pointers here? thanks in advance

Train tracking, dealing with gaps 7 #traintracking
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

Sensor Query wrong for Digitrax BDL716 in 5.11.4 3
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

How to delete a turnout with jython 6
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

Cannot start to read decoders 12
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
