Example: Inserting a Multi-Section Shunting Signals

Process:
 

•Inserting a Multi-section shunting signal using the example 60ZU22 with Zs3, Zs3v, Zs7 and marker light.

 
Requirements:
 

•see Signals - EPU

Description:

The Procedure for creating a multi-section shunting signal is explained step by step using the example 60ZU22.

After inserting and editing the signal attributes in the 'Signal' dialog area, the corresponding Signal aspect of the screens and the signal type indicator are generated automatically. For the frame 'Schirm', the signal aspects for substitute signal (Zs7) and marker light are also added. A separate signal frame is created for the designation plate and for the signal aspects speed indicator at signal (Zs3) and pre-speed announcer at signal (Zs3v). For the signal, the signal mount 'Fundament' is created.

It is described which attributes are to be edited, in order to realize a correct view in the drawing and to ensure (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'.

Illus.: Newly inserted Signal

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):

Table: Attributes to be edited in the section Signal
 

oFor the allocation of the attributes 'Aktiv: Information' (6) and 'Aktiv: Energie' (7), it is first necessary to Create the External Control Architecture.

Illus.: Editing the Attributes for the Screen and the Signal Type Indicators

oAfter changing the attribute 'Schirm: Art' (G), the corresponding signal aspects are automatically created.
 

▪The Signal aspect IDs of the main screen (Signal aspect IDs = 'Hp_0' (K), 'Ks_1' (L), 'Ks_2' (M) and 'Sh_1' (N)) are assigned to the frame with the 'Frame type' = 'Schirm' (H).
 

▪For the Signal type indicator (Signal aspect IDs = 'Ms_ws_rt_ws' (O) and 'Ms_ge_D' (P)) separate frames with the frame type 'Blechtafel' (I, J) are created. To each signal frame 'Blechtafel' a signal aspect object with the corresponding 'Signal aspect ID' is assigned.
 
 

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

Table: Attributes to be processed for Signal Mount

oFor the allocation of the attribute 'Standard drawing' (1), first Create a corresponding Standard Drawing.
 
 

4.To define the switch-ability of the signal aspects for the screen, after marking the frame 'Schirm' (H) in the area Signal aspect (R), the following attributes have to be edited for the assigned signal aspects:

Table: Attributes to be edited for the existing Signal aspects of the Signal frame Screen
 
 

5.For the marked Frame type= 'Schirm' (H) the signal aspects for the Vorsichtsignal (T) and the Zusatzlicht (U) have to be applied one after the other with the button 'New' (S) in the area Signal aspect (R):

6.After marking a signal frame 'Blechtafel' (I, J) the following attributes have to be edited in the area Signal aspect (R) one after the other for the respectively assigned signal aspect (O, P):

Table: Attributes to be edited for the Signal frame Metal board (Signal type indicator)
 
 

7.To create a new signal frame for the Bezeichnungsschild (V), first mark the signal mount with the 'Mounting type' = 'Signalanordnung Mast' (AI). Then in the area 'Signal frame' with the button 'New' (Y) a new frame will be created.

The following attribute should be adjusted:

oFor the designation plate, no signal terms are created.
 
 

8.To plan Zs 3 at signal ZU22 (W), first mark the signal mount with the 'Mounting type' = 'Signalanordnung Mast' (AI). Then, in the area 'Signal frame', create a new frame with the button 'New' (Y). The following attribute needs to be adjusted:

Table: Attribute to be edited for the newly created Signal Frame
 
 

9.After marking the new signal frame 'Zusatzanzeiger' (W) in the area 'Signal frame', with the button 'New' (AJ) the following signal aspects for Zs 3 have to be created one after the other (Z, AA, AB, AC):

10.To plan the Zs 3v at signal ZU22 (X), first mark the signal mounting with the 'Mounting type' = 'Signalanordnung Mast' (Q). Then, in the area 'Signal frame', create a new frame with the button 'New' (Y). The following attribute needs to be adjusted:

Table: Attribute to be edited for the newly created Frame
 
 

11.After marking the new frame 'Zusatzanzeiger' (X) in the area 'Frame', the button 'New' (AJ) is used to create the following signal aspect for Zs 3v (AD):

12.In order to construct the Foundation, first select the signal mounting with the 'Mounting type' = 'Signalanordnung Mast' (AK). Then, use the button 'New' (AF) to create a new signal mounting for the Fundament (AE).

For the Signal mount 'Fundament' (AE) the following attributes have to be edited:

Table: Attributes to be edited for the newly created Signal mount Fundament
 

oFor the allocation of the attribute 'Standard drawing' (2), it is first necessary to Create a corresponding Standard Drawing.

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