Railmaster clock

[RAFT]

Is there a way to set the railmaster clock to a start time on starting the software.  I am trying to set the clock to same as train tech screen display. I was thinking something in the ini file. I know I can set the time manually on the bottom right but I would like not to have to repeat process each time I start the software.

I mean no disrespect to you at all, and I am not at all picking on you or your post. So this comment is a rhetorical question targeted at all readers in general; why don't 'users' at least look in the RailMaster manual first before posting their RM questions.

 

I find myself constantly answering questions by directing members to specific manual pages, where their questions are answered.

 

Many others do it too [that is, not read the manuals]. I find it perplexing.

Yes you can start RM and have it set the same time, each time it starts. It is described 'in overview' on Page 114

 

See extract below:

And in detail on Page 115 ... see extract below:

You set this up by 'right clicking' and editing the 'Desktop Shortcut' you use to start RM.

Hello,

 

May I suggest a way of achieving your goal of synchronising the Railmaster clock to that shown on the TT SmartScreen ?

 

It can be done by using a program or a number of programs, each setting both clocks to a pre-determined time. Here are two programs which I have created which set the clocks to 12:34 and 13:00 respectively. You could have a button on your Raimaster Track Diagram for each program you create, and one click at the start of your RM session is all that is needed ....

These programs are dependent on there being a locomotive defined for the TTSS Clock Set address of 0056, with functions F0 thru F9 being set up with descriptions of "Fn on/off". Make sure the function commands are spaced at least two seconds apart as shown - anything quicker may not work.

 

I hope you might find this useful.

I know you were having problems with your Railmaster installation. Did you manage to sort out those problems, and if so, did you get to try the programs I suggested above?
