There are now three versions of VB available that I own. I assume the VB 6 is the correct one and the one I have worked with so far in CMRI. But I am curious...
Jay: All the current C/MRI examples are VB6. There are major differences between VB6 and (dot)NET I haven't fooled with Express. New I/O libraries are needed...
Jim I have a licensed copy of VB6 and .Net. So I am going to try and load VB6 on my Vista laptop for training purposes while away from the layout. I have a...

Mike asked me to post this to the list. I had sent it to him privately: On Reading and CNJ machines, the third third lamp over the switch (usually red) would...
The gremlins are at work again. I _think_ this is a bad chip problem. Unless a wire connection has gone bad. I have not made any program or hardware changes....
Steve, My experience with multi nodes giving your symptom is the RS 422 chips on any one or more boards. Because they are all daisy chained together, any one...
... Steve: I've seen this problem when the bus terminator was open or loose. It is very important on a long line. Wayne Wayne Roderick P.E. (elec-ret) CEO,...
... Wayne, Bruce indicates that the terminator can be omitted in all but very long and/or high speed applications. What's your opinion on this, I'm assuming...
Wayne, I ran the system without a bus terminator until a year ago when I made one and installed it. I had not identified a particular need, but put one on...
... Agreed- It can't hurt unless you have something else grossly wrong. I've winessed erratic bahavior on a private RR that I was operating on and it was a...
That's what I figured. At the moment, it appears the problem is not the lack of a terminator, since I have been using one for a couple of months now. Ah'll be...
Hi all, Has anyone used a REV TK4 ODMB? How does it work? How is it configured? I have a reverse loop I need to activate with detection. I don't recall seeing...
Off the top of my head you put 120 ohms across each pair of RS 422 or RS 485 lines at the end of the line. This is easy with the SMINI - just make up a 4 pin...
... Hi John: If you've got the CMRI Users Manual V3.0, look on page 4-28. Bruce suggests making up a molex connector with a pair of 120 Ohm resistors to...

Hi Guys! I just started using TRACK BUILDER 3 to draw my CTC panel, which I hope to integrate with CMRI. Has anyone ever tried to do this? Any tips would be...
Can any of you guys advise me on how you are using JMRI DecoderPro to drive DCC boosters to the track? In the help menu, I found references to several...
Yes, I have drawn up the track plan, wrote a package that sends messages to the Dispatcher to change the display. Last task is to tie the hardware and software...
Hi Steve, ... hope ... Bless your little heart. I thought I was the only one that would ever do that. I designed my first panel diagram for the Cornwall...
Ok, I'm doing that now. First off, you won't be able to run CTC mode without everything on the model board remoted. I'm running External I/O mode with...
... Nick, we've been using it for 3 years now. Once everything is remoted, I'll discard it in favor of something else, but for now, it works. -- Eric Schwarz ...
