Locked Sticky ADMIN: >>HOW TO ASK YOUR QUESTION<< - A general reminder for everyone #admin
====================== HOW to ask your question ====================== One of the most common questions about JMRI is "How do I get it to work?". This isn't really a problem with JMRI itself in most cases, but there are HUGE numbers of possible configurations for DCC systems, and Windows, Linux, and Mac computers out there. Just asking "How do I get it to work" is NOT going to get you any useful help. When asking ANY question, you should >>>utilize a meaningful subject line<<< that indicates the problem and include the following information in the body of the message: + If JMRI has started copy and paste the System Console into the body. (its under help on the start screen) + Has JMRI worked before on this computer? + JMRI version + Previous version if you just upgraded + Java version + Previous version if you just upgraded + Computer make and model + if you have just upgraded, from which version + Any other DCC devices in use + Specific details of your difficulty including error messages if any, or what you would like to do with JMRI. Decoder Programming, Signals, Automation, etc. Depending on the nature of the problem, you may need to supply even more information, but this is the absolute required for anyone to give you accurate answers. Signing you post helps keep the group friendly and personable! Your moderators and trouble shooters.

JMRI Loconet control of DCS240+ 15 #digitrax
Environment is a Raspberry Pi 3B with bookworm, Java 17, JMRI 5.10 I recently replaced our club DCS200 (it died) with a DCS240+. There has long been a Pi3 running JMRI controlling the layout via Loconet. For that, in the connections panel I had selected DCS200 as the command station and Loconet-USB as the connection type. My question is now that I have the DCS240+ in place what selection do I make for the Command station? I still use Loconet-USB for the connection type. Selecting DCS240+ as the command station results in no Loconet activity from JMRI. -- Dale Gloer Jack of all trades at home and Southern Alberta Model Railway

Chaining transits with a different locomotive 23 #dispatcher
Hi, Still continuing to test chaining of transits. It look like if you chain a new tansit using "load traininfo” but with a different locomotive, dispatcher doesn't use the new locomotive but continue to run the new transit with the previous locomotive. Any idea? JeanLouisDelestre@...

Printing Switchlists 5 #operationspro
I've got 4 trains to run and I want to build the trains and print the switchlists for the engineers before the operating session starts. In doing so I noticed that one boxcar was a pickup and move by the first train thru that yard, but a second train had the same box car to be moved also. Am I doing this correctly or is there some way to avoid this occurring pls?

Problems with an SML Pair 4 #signalmasts #sml
I cannot get a single mast pair T7 to T2 via B7 to work as expected. T7 is a ghost block with a detection block pre and post. T1, T2 and T3 all share a detection block. B17 Shown below is a single block with detection sensors. I have two paths (B7, B8) coming in from T7 which I've shown below that share same entrance to T7 and exit from T2. The SML was auto-generated. The diverging path works as expected. That is, it knows that T7 must be thrown, T1 must be closed (invert) and T2 to its right must be thrown (invert) to pass traffic. The mast on the right (T2) never changes aspect although the T7 mast changes to approach as I'd expect. When auto-generated, jmri paired the T2 mast with another mast in the yard block (BYE) for unknown logic. Complete layout follows for completeness. Note: All start at B17 and counter-clockwise on B1 or B9. B9, B11 are up and over B8,B7. I copied the logic from T1 mast to T2 mast in the xml but it produced the same results. I have done grand resets (deleting all paths and SML in this case) several times and I've run out of ideas. File is uploaded problems and a convenience link below. XML file uploaded to Problems... I hope somebody here has some suggestion. //stevemac

Automatic Dispatching 12
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.

How do I move JMRI from one laptop to another laptop. 2
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

Difference Between Compare and Reset 12 #decoderpro
All, Recently developed a problem with one of my older diesels, an N scale Bachmann with Econami factory installled. Def used is ECO-100 Diesel. Sound was fine, loco would not move. On the programming track, I loaded the loco's DecoderPro roster entry file and used the CVs tab to compare all values. No differences. Loco still not moving. Did a Reset. Loco now moves. Rewrote all CVs from the loco's roster entry file. Loco now will again not move. To emphasize, these settings have worked fine for years. Are there some settings somewhere that DecoderPro can not see or change, except by reset? Regards

DecoderPro Opens every time as a new install 15
Team, I really need some help on this issue. I posted on it a couple weeks back and got zero replies. At the museum we have a Dell PC running Windows 10 and Java 11. Currently JMRI version 5.10 is running on the machine. Every time JMRI opens it is a new install running the set-up wizard where we have to choose the Sprogg unit, the com port, etc. It also does not remember that there should be a roster of locomotives. I uninstalled the JMRI software by selecting uninstall in the apps window. I confirmed that all directories are removed from the system. I re-installed JMRI. There is no change in the behavior. Save locos to the Roster, it recognizes them until the next time decoder pro is started and then it opens as a new install with the wizard wanting you to choose Sprogg, com port, etc. Once you do that it comes up with no roster. I'm at my wits end on this one. Can someone offer suggestions or ideas to try. George Ronn

Script output delayed 18 #scripting
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

Problem loading Bachrus Speedometer 5 #bachrus
Hello; I recently tried installing my Bachrus Speedometer on a(newer) laptop with JMRI on it. It has Win 10; JMRI 5.11.4, NCE Power Cab (latest chip v1.65b) all installed. Power Cab runs fine on system. I had trouble loading the supplied driver (from 2006), but after discussing it with a good friend who is a Windows Certified Technician, he walked me through a procedure to instal a "legacy" driver. Windows now sees the unit ( in Device Manager). I walked through the JMRI setup for Bachrus speedometer, all the way through to the (almost) End. This message appeared, which to me says there's something in JMRI that need updating...? As what JMRI need is WAAAAAY beyond my paygrade, is there someone out there (preferably a develope) who I could work with to resolve this? Jim Little MMR

Cannot start to read decoders 4
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
