This is a correction, or improvement, on entering the feedback information from a model railroad switch machine position sensor to JMRI so that displays will indicate the correct status of turnout setting. A previous video did not properly explain the correct procedure for setting up JMRI.

This video presents a step by step process to connect your JMRI track diagrams to any visual display that has a web browser such as Smart TVs, iPads and other tablet type displays.

This video shows a sample circuit diagram to send sensor status information to JMRI in connection with the other videos discussing the use of Digitrax BDL168 boards in Model Railroading.

This is a continuation of how to use the Digitrax BDL168 as a sensor to send status information to JMRI for use in automation of your railroad.

Discusses how to use the Digitrax BDL168 to act as a sensor for switch machine position or any on/off switch position on your model railroad and send the data to JMRI for use in automation. Also good for sending infrared sensing data to JMRI.

This video shows how to build a functioning layout diagram in JMRI that can then be displayed on large TVs and iPad devices and used for control of turnouts, block detection, etc. Step by step instruction in using the JMRI Layout Editor.

This video discusses how to use information from the powerful and free JMRI model railroad software. Some fun and useful ways to display and control what is happening with your railroad on large screen Smart TVs, iPads and other tablet type devices.

Explains the differences as well as the advantages and disadvantages of using each of these machines to control your turnouts and other motion controlled features of your model railroad.

How to install a Tortoise or Smail motor to operate model railroad turnouts.
