Model Railroad Dcc Control Jmri Raspberry Pi Circuit Crush The use of the java model railroad interface (jmri) on personal computers to control layouts, along with our existing wireless (wi fi) networks, has recently allowed us to connect our android phones and iphones to our networks and thereby connect them to our model railroads. The raspberry pi runs jmri in headless mode. with the configuration correct you can simply switch on the pi, wait for it to boot and you are ready to run trains from your favourite apple or android smartphone or tablet after a minute or so.
Raspberry Pi Pico Controlled Model Railroad Raspberry Pi For those who want to control their dcc model railroad with their cell phones or tablets (pretty much any android (engine driver) or ios (withrottle) device), there is a raspberry pi image already built. copy it to a sdcard, insert into your raspberry pi, and you are pretty much set to go!. Hi kilo, here is a link to video that explains the process of using a raspberry pi to do dcc and jmri. What is jmri ? you may have heard of a dcc application called jmri, but not know much else. well, jmri stands for the java model railway interface, and it is a free digital command control suite of applications to allow you to control your railway from your pc, mac, or linux box. I have been working on a dcc commander for my model railway and using the raspberry pi to control it all. it has been surprisingly easy to do so thought i would share my code and circuit in case anyone else was trying to do similar.

This video is explains about how to install jmri on a raspberry pi for computer control of a model railway. the example is based around a dcc controller solenoid point controllers, servos and switches. This module implements the dcc protocol for controlling model trains using a raspberry pi. it is able to output direction and speed dcc encoded packets on one of the gpio pins (see example below). Whether you're a master model railroader or just getting started, you'll find something of interest here.
