<h1>Edit NCE Macro</h1>
|
|
This tool allows you to review, edit, and save NCE style macros. It also allows you to backup
|
|
and restore all the NCE command station macros to and from a file. The file format is
|
|
identical to NCE, so you can restore a file that was generated by the NCE backup command.
|
|
Very useful since the restore and backup commands in the 2007 EPROM don't currently work! We
|
|
recommend that you set the baud rate at 9600 when using this tool.
|
|
<h2>Backup</h2>
|
|
To backup all of your macros to a file, press the "Backup" button located on the bottom row
|
|
of the JMRI macro editor. A default file name will appear in the Save window, you can change
|
|
the name it to whatever you wish. Press the "Save" button and the JMRI macro editor will read
|
|
the NCE command station memory and store the contents into the file you selected.
|
|
<h2>Restore</h2>
|
|
To restore all of your macros from a file, press the "Restore" button located on the bottom
|
|
row of the JMRI macro editor. Select a file by typing the name, or clicking on it. Press the
|
|
"Open" button and the JMRI macro editor will write the NCE command station memory with the
|
|
contents of the file you selected. The JMRI macro editor will check the contents of the file
|
|
before writing the command station memory to verify that the file is indeed a NCE macro
|
|
backup file!
|
|
<h2>Get</h2>
|
|
To review a macro, enter the number of the macro in the text box under the heading "Macro"
|
|
and press the "Get" button. This will retrieve the macro from the command station's memory.
|
|
If there's currently a macro, the "Reply:" will be "macro found". If the macro doesn't exist,
|
|
the "Reply:" will be "macro empty". If there is a macro, the JMRI NCE editor will show a list
|
|
of accessories that the macro is programmed to activate.
|
|
<p>To change an accessory address, type in a new accessory address and press the button next
|
|
to the accessory address box to "Closed" or "Thrown". If you want to save it to the NCE
|
|
command station you must press the "Save" button located at the bottom of the editor. The
|
|
"Save" button only becomes active if the macro has been modified.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Add</h2>
|
|
To add an accessory to a macro, enter the accessory's address and then press the "Add" button
|
|
until the desired action "Thrown" or "Closed" appears. Again, use the "Save" button if you
|
|
wish to update the NCE command station memory.
|
|
<h2>Delete</h2>
|
|
To delete an accessory, push the "Delete" button across from the accessory you wish to
|
|
delete. And "Save" if you want to update the NCE command station memory.
|
|
<h2>Link macro</h2>
|
|
To link this macro to another one, enter the macro that you want to link to in the last text
|
|
box of the JMRI NCE editor. Press the "Link macro" button and "Save" if you want to update
|
|
the NCE command station memory. To delete the link, press "Delete" and "Save".
|
|
<h2>Previous and Next</h2>
|
|
The "Previous" and "Next" buttons allow you to search for macros. If you're looking for an
|
|
empty macro, click the "Empty Macro" box located in the upper right hand corner. And finally,
|
|
if you're a diehard NCE fan and just can't stand using the terms "Thrown" and "Closed" to
|
|
describe a turnout, click the "NCE Turnout" box and the accessory buttons will become
|
|
"Normal" and "Reverse" just like your NCE throttle! <!--#include virtual="/help/en/parts/Footer.shtml" -->
