RRduino: main window

Quick wiki to show the screenshots of the text user interface of the python script used to setup the nodes.

You can also find step by step instructions in the other Wiki pages included in this project.

First main screen where you can: set the serial port/baudrate, set the node address, check node version, load data from eeprom, store data to eeprom and clear eeprom. You can also select several menus from the buttons: sensors and turnouts setup, test your setup (standalone, no need to have JMRI running, just direct trials of commands), and then the backup menus (restore configuration from a file or backup current configuration in a file) that enable you to quickly reset a borked node to a saved configuration (see corresponding wiki pages).

The sensors screen: here you can setup new sensors, the list on the right shows all the existing ones

The turnouts screen: you can setup new turnouts, the list on the right shows the existing ones; you can also fine tune the turnout position to adjust the straight and thrown positions to your setup. This means that you first set your servo to 90° for example, mount it on the turnout, and then adjust the extreme positions using this feature; you don't need to mount the servo very precisely.

Enjoy!
