dcc-go
A DCC (Digital Command Control) Throttle to control model trains. DCC-GO can be installed on a computer like the raspberry pi to talk to an Arduino running DCC-EX CommandStation or DCCPlusPlus BaseStation
DCC-GO is written in Golang and was inspired by DCCute.
This repo contains:
Find Arduino USB device
ls /dev |egrep 'ttyACM|ttyUSB'
ttyACM0
# found /dev/ttyACM0
Installation
Install binary and run
# install
go get github.com/dmowcomber/dcc-go
# run with default address 3 and default device /dev/ttyACM0
dcc-go
# run with overridden address and usb device
dcc-go -address=3 -device=/dev/ttyACM0
Build docker image and run using docker-compose or docker
docker-compose
docker-compose up -d

WARNING
dcc-go is alpha quality software at this time. Although it works, it has not
been tested with any commercial DCC system.
It has only been tested with Raspberry Pi, DCC++ or DCC-EX on an Arduino Uno, and an ESU Loksound decoder.
The author of dcc-go claims no responsibility or liability for any damage to your system,
equipment or trains.
USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.
