Example: Inserting a Stand-Alone Subsidiary Signals

Process:
 

•Inserting a Stand-alone Subsidiary Signal using the example of the Change of track signal 60Zp.

Requirements:
 

•see Signals - EPU

Description:

Using the example 60Zp, the procedure for creating a Stand-alone subsidiary  signal is explained step by step.

After inserting the signal and editing the attributes in the dialog area 'Signal', select the frame type 'Zusatzanzeiger' in the signal frame 'Schirm'. At the signal frame 'Zusatzanzeiger' the signal aspect for the change of track signal (Zs6) is created. At the end, the signal mounting 'Fundament' is created for the signal.

It is described which attributes have to be edited in order to ensure a correct view in the drawing and (at a later time) a complete export.

Procedure:
 

1.With the button 'New' (A) a new signal can be inserted, as described under Insertion of Signals. To edit this example, select the signal type 'Leer'.

oWhen inserting, select a point on the topological edge.

oThe Signal is generated with a Signal mount (B) ('Mounting type' (C) = 'Signalanordnung Mast') and an empty Signal frame(D) ('Frame type' (E) = 'Schirm').

2.The following attributes have to be edited in the area Signal (F):

3.For the automatically created Signal mounting (G) the following attributes have to be edited:

4.A Stand-alone auxiliary indicator does not have a 'Frame type' = 'Schirm'. For the automatically generated Signal frame (H) the following attribute has to be edited:

5.After marking the Signal frame 'Zusatzanzeiger' (H), the Signal aspect (K) for the change of track signal is created with the button 'New' (J) in the area Signal aspect (I):

6.In order to lay the foundation, first mark the Signal mounting with the 'Mounting type' = 'Signalanordnung Mast' (L). Then, use the button 'New' (T) to create a new Signal mounting for the Fundament (M).

For the Fundament (M) the following attributes have to be edited:

7.The button 'Close' (O) will close the dialog and the signal is displayed in the drawing.
