<h1>JMRI Virtual Sound Decoder</h1>
<p>This is the quick reference page for the JMRI Virtual Sound Decoder Manage VSD Locations
tool.</p>
<p>The Manage VSD Locations window provides a consolidated location to manage and set the
apparent physical location of sounds for trains using Virtual Sound Decoder.</p>
<p>Locations can be assigned to Reporters, Blocks, Operations Locations and to the Listener
(there is only one Listener).</p>
<p>You can set X / Y / Z coordinates for each location.<br>
Reporters, Blocks and Operations Locations can be marked as "Tunnel". This will change the
sound when a locomotive is within such a location.</p>
<h2>Tabs</h2>
<ul>
<li>Reporters Tab: Set locations for JMRI Reporters</li>
<li>Blocks Tab: Set locations for JMRI Blocks</li>
<li>Operations Locations Tab: Set locations for JMRI Operations Locations</li>
<li>Listener Tab: Set location and orientation of the Listener</li>
</ul>
<h2>Notes</h2>
<ul>
<li>Listener attributes are saved to VSDecoder Preferences (VSDecoderPreferences.xml).<br>
Operations locations are saved to the folder operations in your current JMRI Profile
(OperationsLocationRoster.xml).<br>
Both are loaded automatically at VSD start respectively JMRI start.</li>
<li>Reporters and Blocks are not saved to a file.<br>
If you want to store Reporters or Blocks to a file, go to <strong>Tools &rArr; Tables
&rArr; table &rArr; File &rArr; Store...</strong><br>
In case you have an open Panel with a reference to a location, store that Panel.<br>
Reporters or Blocks must be loaded manually or via JMRI Preferences Startup Action (Open
File).<br>
See <a href="../../../../../html/apps/LoadStoreWork.shtml">Loading and Storing Your
Work</a> for details on loading and storing.
</li>
<li>If you add new Reporters, Blocks or Locations you must close and re-open the Manage VSD
Locations window to have them appear.</li>
<li>"Use Location" marks locations which should be saved. It is a temporary filter and is
not saved.</li>
<li>The Reporters and Blocks tables have an additional column "User Name". If a "User Name"
doesn't exist, the "System Name" is displayed.</li>
</ul>
<p>See the <a href="../../../../../html/tools/vsd/index.shtml">
documentation pages</a> for more details on Virtual Sound Decoder.</p>
