You can use the WiThrottle app on a mobile to talk directly to DCC++ without a computer to control to locomotives. Note the free version of...
Really interesting to see how you’re all controlling the servos especially with DCC. I’ve done a bit of experimentation using an Arduino & servo...
I had a bit of leftover teak so I thought I’d make a box for my DCC++ controller plus the WiFi network and voltage regulators, the black box...
Thanks, looks like I’m stuck with the laptop for now but will definitely look to run JMRI on a Raspberry Pi at some point in the future. Sent...
I’ve got a DCC++ base station running on a Mega plus connected to JMRI on my laptop or WiThrottle on my phone via a dedicated LAN. I can...
Thanks for the comments, you’ve given me a fair bit to think about, I’m going to go for servo motors to start with as that’s the cheaper option...
Not sure if it helps but I’m looking to use a Toshiba laptop power supply as they are 15v Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I discovered yesterday that the WiThrottle App can as control turnouts, something that doesn’t seem too widely publicised, and the manual on there...
Still trying to get my head round some of the naming conventions, would I be correct in assuming that 4mm scale gets it's name from 4mm on the...
I'm still in the early stages of my layout (building the base board) but I'm trying to think several steps ahead so to eliminate problems later...
Thanks for the code, it's been nearly 20 years since I've written any code and I've long since got rid of all my notes & books so I'm at a stage...
Thanks, I'll give that a go later, just put everything away, figured having a break from it would help me think.
Thanks, that's helped, I managed to define my turnouts and control them from JMRI but I lost everything when I powered off so I need to figure out...
Just watched you videos on YouTube and was wondering if you have a link to the Arduino code you used and the mounts in thingyverse? Thanks Rob...
Having got my DCC++ base station up and running with both JMRI & WiThrottle and programmed up my decoder chips, the next step is to figure out a...
Mark, Steve, thank you both for all your efforts, after a few issues getting my base station to operate correctly (mainly down to an issue with a...
It works! Turns out to be a combination of wrong jumper wire as Keith pointed out and a dodgy decoder chip on one of my locomotives. Good thing...
Thanks again, I'm slowly getting there, now able to turn the power on and off using the <1> and <0> commands, the LEDs on the motor shield yurn on...
Thanks, having looked at SerialCommand.h and SerialCommand.cpp I can't see any reference to com port or serial speed, however if I go into Serial...
Okay, I've spent the last few days banging my head against the wall. I'm currently trying to use a Mega and a Motor Shield, I want to add in an...
