JMRI DEMO
Posted by UpNorth on Monday, June 2, 2008 1:15 AM

Someone on the JMRI support forum (Peter)  created a few demos of DecoderPro. They are not complete but give you an idea. 

Not perfect but a work in progres,  I take no credit for it.

In Volume 3, Electrical and Control, of his video series, Joe Fugate gives a very good demo of the JMRI program with setup of a loco, and speed matching CV's. Well worth having the whole series. jc5729 John Colley, Port Townsend, WA

The second link didn't work.  Let's try this:

http://www3.telus.net/public/ulvestad/Manual%20Roster%20Entry/Making%20Roster%20Entry%20Without%20Layout%20Connection.html

Nicely done. I'd like to get DecoderPro running on an old Laptop running Xubuntu, so maybe I should send him an email.  It runs fine on my Mac, but I'd like to leave the laptop in the layout room on a pullout shelf, so it will be there when I need it.

Hop on the Yahoo JMRI support forum and ask. Several have installed Ubuntu or Xubuntu (what ever it is...)  you should get an answer.

For what it's worth, I'm planning to video 4 of the DecoderPro clinics at Anaheim this summer with a professional HD video camera and post them on the internet for viewing. You can watch my personal layout web site and once we get the videos shot and edited, I'll post the links to them. I'm expecting mid-July some time.

The videos will be of the DecoderPro basic and advanced clinics, the PanelPro clinic, and one clinic on using JMRI software for signaling.

Great.

Funny. Someone has allready asked Peter if they could use his Demo as part of their Anaheim clinic this summer.

For those who would want it,  RR CIRKITS and JMRI site have an online PanelPro clinic  availlable. It also covers signaling, mostly built around Digitrax equipement. I used it and it was a charm to get it up and running.
