 Like Jack mentioned, the interface code is not ready yet.  It should be available sometime this summer.  What hardware is needed, I am not sure.  I would sugest you go out to the JMRI Yahoo Groups site to keep up on the status of the project.

  MRC has been rather steadfast in NOT supporting JMRI in the past - It appears that they are now working with JMRI to make this happen for the Prodigy line of DCC systems.

This connection is not available yet. It should be soon both MRC and JMRI are working on this project. Just be patient it is coming.

I have just installed JMRI to my computer.  I am running Prodigy Advance ( NOT Prodigy Advance2 )

What do I use to connect the two components?  What ports etc.
