Work has been ongoing but it is not work with much visual appeal and so I've been reluctant to post, as I know everyone likes pictures. Here's what's new:
- I now have 43 sensors (vertical reed switches) on my track, and 5 in hand. I'm going to hold off on installing the last few till I have a good sense of my current coverage.
- Ballasting work continues. I am about 30% done now. Hoes does one ballast about a switch?!?
- The train PC has been upgraded. It was an old xeon server, it's not a much newer dual core system with a ton more ram, a raid boot volume and many generations better graphics. Why? Because I can.
- I've discovered that windows 7 does not cope with multiple identical web cams. If you plan to use several, vary your brands. (I'm working on live cams for my tunnels).
- The wifi camera car project has taken a step back with Win7, seems the very cheap hardware used has little modern driver support.
More, with pictures, soon!
