Class SerialAddress

java.lang.Object
  jmri.jmrix.tmcc.SerialAddress

public class SerialAddress
extends Object

Utility Class supporting parsing and testing of addresses for TMCC

Two address formats are supported: Ttnnnxxx where: t is the type code, 'T' for turnouts, 'S' for sensors, and 'L' for lights nn is the node address (0-127) xxx is a bit number of the input or output bit (001-999) nnxxx = (node address x 1000) + bit number examples: CT2 (node address 0, bit 2), CS1003 (node address 1, bit 3), CL11234 (node address 11, bit234) TtnnnBxxxx where: t is the type code, 'T' for turnouts, 'S' for sensors, and 'L' for lights nnn is the node address of the input or output bit (0-127) xxxx is a bit number of the input or output bit (1-2048) examples: CT0B2 (node address 0, bit 2), CS1B3 (node address 1, bit 3), CL11B234 (node address 11, bit234)

Method Summary

static String	convertSystemNameToAlternate(String systemName) Public static method to convert one format system name for the alternate format.
static int	getBitFromSystemName(String systemName) Public static method to parse a TMCC system name and return the bit number Notes: Bits are numbered from 1.
static String	normalizeSystemName(String systemName) Public static method to normalize a system name This routine is used to ensure that each system name is uniquely linked to one bit, by removing extra zeros inserted by the user.
static boolean	validSystemNameConfig(String systemName, char type) Public static method to validate system name for configuration returns 'true' if system name has a valid meaning in current configuration, else returns 'false'
static boolean	validSystemNameFormat(String systemName, char type) Public static method to validate system name format returns 'true' if system name has a valid format, else returns 'false'

Method Detail

getBitFromSystemName

public static int getBitFromSystemName(String systemName)

Public static method to parse a TMCC system name and return the bit number Notes: Bits are numbered from 1. If an error is found, 0 is returned.

validSystemNameFormat

public static boolean validSystemNameFormat(String systemName,
                                            char type)

Public static method to validate system name format returns 'true' if system name has a valid format, else returns 'false'

validSystemNameConfig

public static boolean validSystemNameConfig(String systemName,
                                            char type)

Public static method to validate system name for configuration returns 'true' if system name has a valid meaning in current configuration, else returns 'false'

convertSystemNameToAlternate

public static String convertSystemNameToAlternate(String systemName)

Public static method to convert one format system name for the alternate format. If the supplied system name does not have a valid format, or if there is no representation in the alternate naming scheme, an empty string is returned.

normalizeSystemName

public static String normalizeSystemName(String systemName)

Public static method to normalize a system name

This routine is used to ensure that each system name is uniquely linked to one bit, by removing extra zeros inserted by the user.

If the supplied system name does not have a valid format, an empty string is returned. Otherwise a normalized name is returned in the same format as the input name.
