Taymar likes this.You have to edit each Section to specify the proper sensors. Some a slang terms, and some are brand specific Loconet. There is a ton of hobby specific vocabulary and terminology that you have to absorb to help understand the concepts better. Whatever DCC system you plan on using will have interface requirements listed in JMRI it will include instructions and required hardware. I did have to input the picture and the phone number, but I have nothing to do with what the phone and phone system do once I set it up.

I do know how to set up my phone so that when I tap on a picture of my mom it will call her, and that's what I as the "end user" want to happen. I have zero clue about the inner workings of my iPhone, and even less understanding about how telecommunications systems work. It's up to you to define how complex the sensor system is and what the actual output is I like to use the smartphone example. You tell the system what to do with the information. I find it easier to think of a complex system of switches sensors and lights turnouts and actual lights. There is a lot of Arduino based DIY solutions that can control lights, sensors, etc. You can have a Digitrax signal lamp turn activated by a NCE signal. JMRI will connect multiple brands of hardware, and does a pretty good job of making them interact. JMRI is a great program that can do a lot, but it does require the user to invest some time to learn how to use it. The process for automating a simple one train going around the track was really quite easy to setup. I was able to write a simple script that ran one train from sensor to sensor it would slow down, pause, at a station and then go again. I have found it hard to find information on how to get it done, and I happily move on to some other project. That being said I haven't really committed myself to making this happen.

I've been trying on and off for over a year to get an train to run automatically but with no success.

As for what hardware you'll need to install there are a ton of sensor types all having pros and cons.

You don't have to install a physical signal on the layout you can use virtual signals. TaymarMay 19, You can do some automation with scripts, but to really do automation you will need to install block detection or other sensorsand some type of signalling. The z scale is probably going to be toughest since there doesn't seem to be tons of options for micro decoders I model steam.Īssuming I can go with any of the brands that'll fit digitraxwhat items do I need to go between the computer running JMRI and the layout? I'm a little fuzzy on some of the terminology like command center and loconet, so any dumbed down explanation would be a massive help to get me started. Where I'm stuck though is what hardware I will need to get everything working.

From my research so far, it sounds like JMRI and the software modules can do all of this and then some. I need to be able to set up a whole bunch of logic steps and timers, and ideally have the whole ''program" run on a loop. JMRI - hardware needed for smart autonomous operations? Hello all, I'm looking into options for dcc with layout automation - locomotives and structures.
