<p>
LccPro is a
<a href="../../../../html/apps/index.shtml">JMRI application</a>
that focuses on configuring your LCC network.
</p>
<a href="LccProMainWindow.png">
<img src="LccProMainWindow.png"
class="floatRight" height="299" width="538" alt="LccPro main window"></a>
<p>
The main LccPro window is a table showing all the LCC nodes on your network.
Each row shows information about a single LCC node.
If the node supports it, there are "Configure" and "Upgrade"
buttons that will open functional windows for
<a href="../../../jmri/jmrix/openlcb/swing/networktree/NetworkTreePane.shtml#configure">configuring the node</a>
or
<a href="../../../jmri/jmrix/openlcb/swing/downloader/LoaderFrame.shtml">upgrading its firmware</a>
<p><span class="since">Since <a href="http://jmri.org/releasenotes/jmri5.15.5.shtml">JMRI 5.15.5</a></span>
If a node supports it, the
"Backup" button on a row will directly backup that node's configuration to a file.
You can have as many of these running in parallel as you'd like, so you
can just go down the column hitting the buttons to back up your entire network efficiently.
To set the directory where the backup(s) will be stored,
use the "Set Backup Directory" action under the "Settings" menu.
</p>
<p>
When you select a row, more information about that node is shown
on the lower left. The node's list of supported LCC protocols is
shown in the bottom-center panel. You can resize those bottom
panels using the slider bars between them, and open or close them
using the small disclosure triangles on the slider bars.
</p>
<p>
In the bottom right is a search field. Start typing there
and LccPro will select the first row in the table with a matching
name. As you continue typing, this will narrow down to finally
matching just the right entry. The search ignores the lower vs upper case.

<a name="nodegroups" id="nodegroups">
Below that is a selection box that will let you display "(All)"
nodes or just ones that you've entered into a specific "Node Group".
To add or remove nodes from a group, use the popup menu (right-click or ctrl-click)
on the node's row in the main table. You can also use the
node groups you've defined here to specify what should be visible in the
<a href="../../../jmri/jmrix/openlcb/swing/eventtable/EventTablePane.shtml">Event Table</a>.
<p>
Across the top is a tear-off set of buttons that will open
other LCC tools, including
<ul>
<li>The
<a href="../../../jmri/jmrix/openlcb/swing/eventtable/EventTablePane.shtml">Event Table</a>
<li>The
<a href="../../../jmri/jmrix/AbstractMonFrame.shtml">LCC Traffic Monitor</a>
<li>The
<a href="../../../jmri/jmrix/openlcb/swing/stleditor/StlEditorPane.shtml">STL Editor</a>
</ul>
It also includes
<ul>
<li>a "Refresh" button that will reload the table from the network
<li>a "Print Table" button that will print the current contents of the node table,
including it's column sizing, sorting, etc
<li><span class="since">Since <a href="http://jmri.org/releasenotes/jmri5.15.5.shtml">JMRI 5.15.5</a></span>
an "Export CSV" button that will export the current contents of the node table
in comma-separated variable format and
<li>a "Help" button that will bring you to this page.
</ul>
</p>
<p>
At the bottom of the window is a status bar containing the name of the currently
configured connection, and an indicator of whether that LCC connection
is currently active with traffic or not.
</p>
<p>
Because LccPro is a work in progress, the lower right region is not populated yet.
<a href="https://groups.io/g/jmriusers">Suggestions</a>
about what to put there would be appreciated!
