Preparing to Install JMRI®

The JMRI software package includes:

DecoderPro®
PanelPro™
SoundPro™

Two versions of the software are available:

Production Version: The current stable version that is fixed in design and for general use. If just starting, this is the version for you.
Development Version: The version that is under development for testing and is used to validate new features and changes to existing features. If you are familiar with JMRI and want to help in the validation and testing process, then use this version.

Check the supported hardware systems to verify your computer can run JMRI.

If it can, download the correct installer for your computer system:
