<h1>Hardware Support: Märklin </h1>
|
|
JMRI supports two Märklin command stations:
|
|
the <a href="#cs2">Command Station 2 (CS2)</a> and
|
|
the <a href="#cdb">CdB CC-Schnitte 2</a>.
|
|
|
|
<h2 id="cs2">Command Station 2 (CS2)</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>JMRI can connect to a Märklin Command Station 2 using the built in Ethernet interface.<br>
|
|
It is possible for multiple PCs to connect to a CS2 using UDP/IP or TCP/IP.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The CS2 uses its own CAN BUS protocol running over the network.
|
|
When using the UDP protocol, responses from the CS2 are sent
|
|
out as a broadcast message and therefore the PCs connecting to the CS2 must be in the same IP
|
|
subnet otherwise the reply messages will not get seen.
|
|
The TCP protocol connection does not have this limitation.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>This implementation of the CS2 CAN protocol was developed and tested on CS2 firmware
|
|
version 2.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Support for the Märklin CS2 was first available in <a href=
|
|
"https://www.jmri.org/releasenotes/jmri3.1.1.shtml">JMRI 3.1.1</a>.
|
|
TCP protocol was added in
|
|
<a href="https://www.jmri.org/releasenotes/jmri5.11.5.shtml">JMRI 5.11.5</a></p>

<p>To configure the connection:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Open the JMRI "Preferences" under the "Edit" menu,</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Select "MARKLIN" as the manufacturer, and Command Station 2 as the Connection
|
|
type with either TCP (recommended) or UDP protocol.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Enter in the address assigned to the CS2.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Click "Save".</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>Turnouts, Sensors, Throttle and power support is available for a JMRI-connected CS2
|
|
unit.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Throttle support includes the ability to select a specific protocol (Märklin, DCC & mfx)

<h2 id="cdb">CdB CC-Schnitte 2</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p><span class="since">Since <a href="jmri5.3.5.shtml">JMRI 5.3.5</a></span>
|
|
JMRI can connect using a CC-Schnitte USB interface.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The CC-Schnitte is a third party USB interface for the Marklin CAN Bus.
|
|
It is usually directly attached to the 60113 Digital Connector Box,
|
|
with the MobileStation 2 attached to the second port.
|
|
In the Marklin system, the Connector Box receives commands from devices attached to the CAN Bus.
|
|
It acts as a mini booster, but also translates them into a proper DCC/mm2/mfx signal.
|
|
CC-Schnitte combines with the Connector Box in a fashion similar as the
|
|
already supported CentralStation 2.
