All, I'm new to the group but read a lot of the messages in the archive, also recognized a bunch of names from other groups. I've been working with the C\MRI...
Scott , I did not even own a computer when I started on this project 3 years ago. The railroad is full ctc with 2 color signals. I use the block relay system...
WP Steve Can you send me a copy of your basic OS section program. We are just getting started in installing our system after many delays, and personal stuff...
Hi Scott My best response would be to get a copy of Bruce's handbook. He relates costs factors, ease of use and many other options when using the CMRI system...
Don Do you have Bruce's 2 books for sale. If so what version do you have and what is the cost. John DePauw Operating the EJ&E Railway in South East Michigan in...
There were a lot of good responses to your question. My preference is to use DCC to operate the trains - it does a good job of putting you in the cab of the...
Nice to hear from you, my wife and I stopped by awhile back ( you were putting in a new bath ) on our way from Chubb's. I will send you our entire code next...
Steve Thanks. Don't hesitate to call next time you are in the area. John DePauw Operating the EJ&E Railway in South East Michigan in 1973 ... From: Steve Hayes...
Scott, maybe your field of view is a little to narrow on both the hardware and software side. Since this is the CMRI group I will start there. (I have a CMRI ...
All, Thanks to all that posted responses, I think they will be valuable in the future, wink... wink... ;^) To give you a little better background of the...
One thing you should consider is writing the code in a lsee obtuse language than C++. I don't write code everyday, but I've had to occasionally generated code...
Re CMRI code, Quick Basic or Visual Basic is the way to go. First, all the initial code is already written in Chubb's books. Second, once the Chubb code is...
I just found the group (duh!). I built my Chubb system about 7-8 years ago and wrote my own VB programs to run my RR. I also wrote my own code to marry...
Thanks for joining the group. Went to your site, way over my head but very interesting. Working all that code up I can see why the railroad sort of sat for a...
Nice photos of a nice looking layout! I was wondering..... Why the block relay cards since you're using DCC? Phil Hartung Idaho Falls, ID ... From: "pfarrin"...
I built the layout and used the CMRI originally using block control and analog controllers. When I started no one was making N-scale sized DCC receivers for...
Hi, I have known about CMRI since 1990 when I picked up a second hand issue of MR at a hobby store. For years I put together the peices (mentally) as to how I...
What you describe does have merit; a preprogrammed controller with maybe a terminal interface?. But, for me, it's more a matter of having the tools that Unix...
Hi all, My name is Earl and I'm new to the group. I am a resent reader of Mr. Chubbs "Build Your Own Universal Computer Interface" Second Edition and hooked....
Close in both regards: I'm in Idaho Falls, 3 hours/200 miles north of you, and rather than CMRI, awaiting $$ and time for a TracTronics SECSI DII card, with...
Earl Lee Nicholas here. I sent you a message earlier but not sure you received it so here I go again. I live in Corinne (Brigham City Area) 1 hour north of ...
Phil, Have you looked at the new Super MINI-node offered by JLC Enterprises. It takes the new JLC provided Super USIC with its new microprocessor and combines...
Hi Bruce! I we chatted a bit about this earlier this week. I was wondering if you had a pdf w/ info and picture perhaps on the new Super Mini Node that you...
Bruce Great to see you on the list. C/MRI working great here in Utah on the Utah Colorado Western. Lee Nicholas Visit the Utah Colorado Western WEB site at: ...
I live in Kearns, Utah near the 2002 Olympic Oval. My railroad in under construction (still) but I have the beginnings of CMRI installed with some sample...
Hi Group I have been biting my nails waiting for Bruce to annonce the serial products he is working on. The prospects are really great and the products are...
Hi Lee That speaks highly of the system and hopefully reflects the quality of work I did for you in building your system Don Wood Easee Interface PS Have a...
