Thanks for the suggestions as to how I can look further into my Logix failure between JMRI 4.21.4 and 4.21.5. I have uploaded the full Panel File <Graub¨¹nden-21-0313 Debug prep.xml> to the Problems Being worked On area under a folder of my name Martin Fargher.
?
The problem I have encountered is that it is not possible to set a Signal to Green in 4.21.5 and subsequent versions. Signalling does work on 4.21.4 and previous for the same Panel.
?
I have also looked further into this myself and tried a cut down Panel and Logix for one of my signals, Signal 4. What follows below is based on this cut down Panel so hopefully more clearly demonstrates that there is a difference between 4.21.4 and 4.21.5. Unfortunately I myself can't see how any of the particular Logix outputs are derived!
?
Guidance on why Logix is determining a different output for exactly the same panel would be appreciated!
?
Many thanks, Martin Fargher

Signal S4, with *cut down Conditionals*
?
Signal S4 protects a converging route to a Turnout. All Conditionals relating to track occupancy, train protection and points locking have been deleted for this demonstration below. These appear to work correctly so have been left out for brevity.
?
JMRI internal sensor "Signal S4 Indicator" is used to set the Signal S4 to clear or danger.
This sensor appears on the panel and can be 'pressed'. It can also be selected in the Sensor Table with the same effect.
?
* Conditionals, in order, are called:
Report Signal S4 Indicator triggered sensor Active [added for Indicator action determination]
Report Signal S4 Indicator triggered sensor Inactive [added for Indicator action determination]
Signal S4 aspect selector
Hold indicator at Red
Prevent indicator clearing if track not clear
