I have a small point to point layout. The layout is about 10 feet long and 10" wide. There are a total of two main line tracks, and 4 dead end...
FlightRisk, Thank you for your reply. You are quite correct. the DCC++ does send sensor data asynchronously. Does it send anything else in that...
Thanks guys, I am glad ti hear that your sensors have operating for over a year on 5 volts. That boosts my confidence. I am using to different...
I plan to try 5 volts as Vcc for the sensors. I am pretty sure JMRI does program the sensors into the DCC++ I'm pretty far along with a RPi...
Thanks for the reply Jimbo, The LED cables are not shielded. The fact that the status LED on the PCB never flashes and goes to a constant on...
I am using small obstacle sensors for loco detection on my test railroad. There are 24 of them installed. they are located at the end of sidings...
Tim, Thanks for the Reply! I am writing a little interface proxy for the raspberry Pi that will act as a front end to the DCC++. The proxy will...
Does any one know if the DCC++ system on the Arduino Mega sends out sensor status asynchronously as it changes, or does it have to be poled for by...
Flightrisk, Thanks for the detailed reply. I will look into your suggestions. In the current configuration I need to isolate the problem. I am...
Thanks for the reply. I am building a small pint-to-point N-scale railroad as a test facility. I have a home theater the front wall of which is...
I have run into a few issues with my project. Any help will be greatly appreciated. The issues have to do with the JMRI sensor tables. If I put...
I am in the process of installing IR object sensors on my railroad. I just started back in this hobby and am a little bit old (80) which gives me...
I am using the DCC++ base station, All works fine on my test layout. To add sensors I bought a Arduino mega shield breakout board (WINGONEER®...
I am playing with control systems in a DCC++ system. The sensors are inexpensive ambient light detectors, which I modified to have the...
Thank you for the reply. That does look like an interesting device. My problem however, is not my eyes it is my hands. If I attempt to hold them...
I am building a small layout to play with DCC++. I have many sensors (ambient light) built into the track (Kato unitrack). I plan to wire them to...
What is the recommended power supply voltage for the motor shield? I have both 12 volts and 15 volts available. They are both regulated, and the...
I am building a small layout in my Home Theater. The layout is in a constrained space that is 122" x 8.75". It is under the screen sitting on a...
That was dumb of me. I am using "N" scale as HO is a bit too large for the space I have.
