<h1>LocoNet Statistics</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>Advanced LocoNet interfaces like the LocoBuffer series from RR-CirKits or the PRn series
|
|
from DIgitrax collect statistics on the operation of the attached LocoNet. This window
|
|
displays those.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The "Update" button requests information from the interface for display.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>LocoBuffer Values</h2>
|
|
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt>Version</dt>
|
|
|
|
<dd>The version number of the unit.</dd>
|
|
|
|
<dt>Breaks</dt>
|
|
|
|
<dd>The number of LocoNet breaks seen since the last time the interface was powered on.
|
|
This is the number of times that the locobuffer sees a problem with its output message to
|
|
the loconet and issues a break, that tells the devices that are receiving the data to throw
|
|
that packet away and the locobuffer then resends the packet.</dd>
|
|
|
|
<dt>Errors</dt>
|
|
|
|
<dd>The number of LocoNet errors seen since the last time the interface was powered on.
|
|
This happens when the Locobuffer detects a problem on a packet it is receiving off the
|
|
loconet. This should be a result of the sending device seeing a problem with the packet it
|
|
is sending and issuing a break. The data is not lost when this happens, the sending device
|
|
then sends the packet again. The worst case is if the Locobuffer seeing a problem with a
|
|
packet it is receving and the transfitting device does not. The packet is then lost.</dd>

<dd>The number of good LocoNet messages seen since the last time the interface was powered
|
|
on.</dd>

|
|
<dt>Bad Message Count</dt>
|
|
|
|
<dd>The number of bad LocoNet messages seen since the last time the interface was powered

on.</dd>

<dt>MS100 Status</dt>
|
|
|
|
<dd>The status bits from an interface in MS100 (LocoNet adapter) mode.</dd>
|
|
</dl>
|
|
|
|
<p>Some of these are displayed when the interface is acting as a programmer (PR2 mode), and
|
|
others when it's acting as an interface (MS100 mode).</p>
