[quote user="Gary UK"]<p>Sounds good, ive got the same system as yourself. Am i correct in saying that you instal the software, plug your laptop into the comand station and away you go then?</p><p>[/quote]</p><p> </p><p>Just about, yes. Your command station should have a 9-pin RS-232 receptacle on the front, just above the track connections. You need to connect that to your computer. </p><p>You'll need a cable with a male 9-pin plug on one end and whatever will fit your computer at the other. If all it has is USB, you'll need to buy a USB-to-serial adapter for $20 to $50, more or less, depending on your needs. It's all explained on the JMRI site.</p><p>And, of course, you have to download and install the software, but that's all explained, too.</p><p>Have fun! </p>
