Hello, I m a Noob on DCC++.. I have a working JMRI/DCC++ box for my layout.. All works as its supposed to.. I am trying to build a second one for a friend but I have a problem with the base station end of the setup.. I have 4 different Arduino UNO boards, Some clone and one original, directly from Arduino board. The problem is: When I run JMRI and WiThrottle, I get an Error saying the DCC++ serial port can not be found Cancel, Go to connections etc.. I have tried all 4 boards, Multiple Power Hats and all give me the same exact error.. I have compiled the code MULTIPLE times, downloaded new copies of the sketch for the base station, Tried different computers, all with the same failure message. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG???? Dave
Did you plug the DCC++ USB cable into another port you normally do not use for the DCC++ unit? That may change the comm port number.
Yes Sir.. Tried all 4 USB ports and even tried several cables.. I have it hooked too my windows PC right now and it see the UNO basestation just fine.. Is there a way to set the USB port for use with a PI
Its working... I found that I had the USB set to TTYUSB0 and it should have been ttyACM0.. Now all of my UNO boards work and run my trains !!!!!
