Locked Re: SML signal mast problem #sml


 

Ken,

The second try worked.

There are a few more changes.

I recommend that the turnout speeds be adjusted. ?The default speed for Thrown is Restricted. ?I normally used Medium. This is set using the "Speeds -> Defaults" menu item in the Turnout table.

This affects the signal mast logic when routes include thrown turnouts.

The "LT1" turnout table entry currently has "Inverted" enabled. ?I suspect that this was an attempt to make the diverging leg of LT1 to be the normal route. ?I don't use inverted. ?My rule is that if the JMRI Closed state is not the preferred route, the switch machine wiring is changed.

The image for LT1 has the wrong color (red). ?Right click LT1 and select Edit. ?Click on the "Create/Edit" block button. ?Set "Occupied Sense" to Active.

If the problem is with what LS57 is reporting, fix it instead of masking the problem using JMRI.?

The signal mast icons for LT01(B) and LT01(C) need to be flipped.

LT14 signal masts: ?LT14(C) is missing and LT14(B) is in the wrong location on the panel. ?Enable "Right Hand Side" for all 3 locations and click on Done. ?This will add/move the masts to the proper locations.

LT22 signal masts: ?Select LT22(C) for the 815 - 512 block boundary. ?Create SML for LT22(C). ?Delete and create SML for LT25(A).

LT23 signal masts: ?Add the masts to the panel.

------------------------------------

The LT26/LT14 and LT23/LT27 turnout pairs look like crossovers. ?If they behave as crossovers then trains will never stop between the turnouts. ?If that is true, then blocks 833 and 816 are not needed. ?And signal masts LT26(C) and LT14(B) are not needed.

------------------------------------

There is an error where occupancy sensor LS400 assigned to blocks 804 and 810.

------------------------------------

Note: ?The middle loop ( P14, etc.) has an interesting problem that will require more research. ?When the turnouts are lined for the loop, a SML loop occurs. ?When a signal mast aspect changes, the previous mast has to determine if its aspect needs to change. ?If so, it changes and when triggers the next previous mast. ?The method for propagating changes can go forever.

I think the problem is the number of signal masts in the loop. ?The outer loop does not have the problem.

Good morning
Let me try again. I made all the changes you recommended so I don't know what happened.
