Pendragon Sailing Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 While there’s an argument that HM7000 decoders don’t need DecoderPro because the App interface allows easy management of their CVs, I nevertheless ask whether its expected that JMRI’s decoder database will be allowed to include these decoders in due course? Having all my locos (including the ones fitted with HM7000) listed in DecoderPro would be more convenient than having to run with two separate databases.Does anyone know what might be happening on this front?

P-Henny Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 Would it not be more productive (and more likely to get a definitive answer) if this question was raised on the JMRI [DecoderPro] forum.jmriusers@groups.io | Home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
96RAF Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 When TTS was launched all the relevant data was passed to a guy on RMWeb forum, who at the time was compiling the TTS decoder definitions for JMRI.Given the decoder manual for TXS is very comprehensive and all the sound profiles documentation can be downloaded then there is already enough information in the public domain for anyone to incorporate TXS into JMRI, which is an open source software.

Pendragon Sailing Posted December 14, 2023 Author Share Posted December 14, 2023 message from one of the JMRI developer team, just posted…….”I’ve started work on the definition, but the press of other events has made the work slow. (The HN7000 has a _lot_ of CVs). It should be ready for testing sometime over the holidays.”coming soon by the sound of things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can pull the loco sound file list from the web site documentation _ SDxxxWe are waiting for info from Hornby as to how to tell what the pin configuration is, I.e 8, 18, 21 and sound or non sound and thus be able to associate the correct decoder R number.

Geoff-1308929 Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Now 4 months later. Anyone aware of any update on txs with decoder pro? Just tried to add my several 8 pin txs locos but there is No listing for any txs decoders, either manual or auto detection? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pendragon Sailing Posted April 18 Author Share Posted April 18 I’ve just posted a follow-up question on this topic, on the JMRI users website…..stand by Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewH56 Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 Just to note I am using JMRI and when I add a HM7000 decoder to my roster I just select NMRA Standard as the decoder. So far I have been able to add all my HM7000 enabled locos using this method (and they all function as I expect) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pendragon Sailing Posted June 5 Author Share Posted June 5 Thanks for this, Andrew. Interesting to hear that approach is successful. I’ll give it a go, as i’d given up on being able to use JMRI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
