Connecting
Configuring an Arduino for use as a DCC++ Base Station
Connecting to a DCC++ Base Station via USB
- To connect your computer to a DCC++ Base Station, first install the appropriate drivers.
- For the DCC++ Base Station with JMRI, you may need to install a device driver on your computer. Please refer to the Arduino Getting Started pages for instructions.
- Windows (See Step 4)
- Mac: No drivers should be required
Note: If you have already installed the Arduino IDE software, the device drivers should already be installed.When the device drivers are installed, connect the Arduino Base Station to your computer using a standard USB cable.- For the DCC++ Base Station with JMRI, you may need to install a device driver on your computer. Please refer to the Arduino Getting Started pages for instructions.
- Once the drivers are installed, you are ready to configure JMRI. Start one of the JMRI-based programs, Then go to the preferences panel. This opens automatically the first time a program is run, or you can select it from the 'Edit' menu.
- Select 'DCC++' from the top selection box ('System Manufacturer').
- Select 'DCC++ Serial Port' from the second selection box ('System Connection')
- Select the appropriate USB/Serial port from the third selection box ('Serial Port')
- Click 'Save'. You'll be asked if it's OK for the program to quit, click 'Yes'.
- Restart the program. You should be up and running.
Connecting to a DCC++ System using Network
- First, connect the DCC++ Base Station to wired or WiFi network and record the IP Address and Port number. You may need to connect the Arduino to a host computer temporarily and use the Arduino Serial Monitor to get this information.
- Now you are ready to configure JMRI. Start one of the JMRI-based programs, then go to the Preferences panel. This opens automatically the first time a JMRI program is run, or you can select it from the 'Edit' menu (from the Application menu on OS X).
- Select 'DCC++' from the top selection box ('System Manufacturer').
- Select 'DCC++ Ethernet' from the second selection box ('System Connection').
- Input the IP Address and Port Number of the DCC++ Base Station.
- Click 'Save'. You'll be asked if it's OK for the program to quit, click 'Yes'.
- Restart the program. You should be up and running.
Connecting to a DCC++ System using DCC++ Over TCP
![Station Station](https://imgix-blog.setapp.com/henge-docks-vertical-docking-station-mac.png?auto=format&ixlib=php-3.3.0&q=75)
- First, connect the DCC++ Base Station to the host computer via the Serial or Network interface as described above.
- On the host computer select 'Load DCC++ Over TCP Server' from the DCC++ Menu. Check the settings, then press the 'Start Server' button. If you want the server to automatically start when JMRI is launched, click the checkbox provided.
- The Host computer must be running with the DCC++ Server active before launching the Client computer.
- On the client computer, launch JMRI on the Client computer.
- In the Connection Preferences, select DCC++ as the System Manufacturer.
- Select 'DCC++ Server' as the System Connection Type.
- Enter the network name or IP address of the host computer and verify that the port number is the same as on the host computer.
- Save your Preferences and restart.

Connecting to the DCC++ Simulator
- Start one of the JMRI-based programs, Then go to the preferences panel. This opens automatically the first time a program is run, or you can select it from the 'Edit' menu.
- Select 'DCC++ Simulator' from the top selection box. There are no additional configuration steps required to use the DCC++ Simulator.
- Click 'Save'. You'll be asked if it's OK for the program to quit, click 'Yes'.
- Restart the program. You should be up and running.

Using Total Commander on an Apple Mac?
Station Commander Mac Os Download
You can use a Windows emulator like Vmware fusion, Parallels or Crossover for Mac to use Total Commander on an Apple Mac computer.
Or try Commander One - Free File Manager for Mac OS X with PRO Pack of additional features for advanced file management. Aimed to be an alternative of Total Commander for Mac users.
Or CRAX Commander, which makes it easier for true fans of TC to migrate from Windows to Mac. CRAX Commander makes possible browsing archives as folders, connecting to FTP / SFTP, multi-renaming files, navigating in app using TC shortcuts and much more.
DCommander for Mac OS X is another great alternative for Mac Users. It includes everything you would expect from an advanced dual-pane file manager, including FTP, SCP, archive browser, synchronization and more, all with minimal memory usage and multi-language support.
Nimble Commander for Mac OS X is a 2 panel file manager especially for power users:
- External Tools integration support: Quickly open any application with a variety of parameters based on the current focus/selection/path, etc.
- External Editors can be used with any virtual file system, and changed files will be uploaded back.
