Itrain yelp3/19/2023 ![]() Rocrail - I have set up Rocrail and am quite impressed but so far I have only used the intro section and not connected to my DCC controller. Also feedback from my existing Hall sensors via an Arduino is possible (I understand) as JMRI will find the incoming port? JMRI - I understand this works well with Arduino however I have problems running it on my oldish MAC computer ( Catalina ) Decoder Pro works but Panel Pro refuses to start? Assuming I can make it work on a MAC i believe automation is possible but requires Python type programming. I would prefer to use Arduino type units rather than buy commercial products partly because its more interesting and also because it can take up to 6 weeks for parcels to arrive here and a proportion inevitably get lost. The manual is essentially used when something goes wrong and i need to bring things back to the correct starting point. ![]() I will probably run like today with 80+ % automatic operation. I now need some sort of control interface and would like some advice. I am starting to experiment with DCC, I have a DCC controller made with an Arduino Uno and motor shield running DCC++EX which works well. In principle this can be corrected by programming but as I am required by higher management to "put my crap away after use" I have to make a set up each time i run the layout and the set up must always be the same, a system which can recognise the engine could be better. This setup runs very well and does not need a JMRI type of interface, however there are some limitations, the fast express, the commuter DMU and the freight train run at approximately the same speed as the Arduino cannot identify an engine. The automatics are DC and controlled by Arduinos, position sensing by Hall effect switches and with magnets under the engines. He pushes you, encourages you and most importantly, believes in you.I have a small n gauge layout in 4 parts, one fully automatic branch line, two mainline tracks with independent fiddle yards which can be either fully automatic or manual and a central shunting yard which is fully manual including an Arduino controlled turntable. It’s not just that he’s so well versed in the exercises and is a professional, but he gives you the confidence you need to get to where you want to go. I am confident that with his guidance and training, I will get there- and this is what’s really the best thing about training with Danny. Now almost 3 months after having Dylan, I am working with Danny to get back into shape. Giving birth is like a marathon and training with Danny gave me the stamina and strength to deliver our beautiful baby girl, Dylan. When the time finally came to do just that, all the training really did help. I felt happy, healthy and prepared to give birth. I believe our consistent training helped with my minimal morning sickness, weight gain and most importantly, my mental well being. For almost 9 months, I trained with Danny at least twice a week and credit our challenging and careful training to my amazing pregnancy experience. Since he was prenatal certified, I instantly felt safe to continue our workouts and my doctor felt the same. I knew that I wanted to stay active and fit during my pregnancy and Danny helped me do just that. Within a few months, I felt even stronger and more fit- exactly what I wanted to accomplish with a new workout! After consistently training with Danny for almost 2 years, I found out I was pregnant. He introduced me to new workouts I’ve never done before and always ensured that I was not only challenged but in the best form. I was always hesitant of the “gym life” as it felt intimidating and at times, unsafe (if you’re not in the correct form) but Danny quickly changed my mind shortly after working out with him. However, after exclusively doing these types of workouts, I wanted more. Before working with Danny, I only did low impact workouts like The Bar Method (I actually owned a studio and was an instructor for over 7 years!), pilates and yoga and generally felt fit. To say he’s been incredible through these 3 stages is an understatement. He has trained me through 3 stages of my life- BB, DB and AB, Before Baby, During Baby and After Baby. I’ve had the pleasure of training with Danny for almost 3 years now.
