EX-DCCInspector - part 2

 

Following part 1, I brought my setup to the layout and tried it out:





This is the output I get:

So, we see a lot of things. It seems that there's a memory in what has been transmitted recently - typically everything related to the engine I ran right before - Loc 7689, but nothing about blocks or Railcom related information
 
More investigation required, but looking at DCC-EX Discord, it seems that EX-DCCInspector might not be supporting Railcom just yet.
