Support for your LCC/OpenLCB hardware is best found at the users group:
https://groups.io/g/layoutcommandcontrol
Getting Started:
Once you’ve got the app installed, open it. It should automatically open to a settings page. If not, go to the “More” item at the bottom right, then select “Settings"
- If your hub is advertising itself, you should be able to see its name in the "Visible Hubs" selector at the top of the page. Select it. (This is the most likely case when you have a CS-105 as it has a hub built in)
- If your hub is not advertising itself, you'll see only "<No Hub Selected>" at the top. Enter your hubs IP address in the center section. If you're using a non-standard port (i.e. a port other than 12021), also enter that port number.
Every copy of the program needs a node number, and they must not be the same. Generally, LccTools will take care of this for you. The "Enter a node ID for this program" field will let you provide one of your own if you'd prefer to do that, but it's usually not necessary to change the value provided.
Then click "Restart Connection". After a second or two, you should get a message just above the button that says "Connected to " and your connection info.
Now you're ready to go! Just a couple notes:
- The icons at the bottom select different tools - When you open the "Nodes" tool, you'll see a list of your existing LCC nodes. (If it says “No Selection Yet”, tap “Remote Nodes” at the upper left). Select one to see more about it, and (if possible) get a button that will let you configure it. - The fast clock will show real time (i.e. wall clock time) unless you have a master LCC fast clock installed on your LCC network. This could be a hardware clock from Logic Rail Technologies, the software clock in JMRI, or some other clock master.
Feedback on how to improve it, or on any problems you encounter, would be greatly appreciated!
