jmluengor Posted February 5 Posted February 5 (edited) At the controls of the ET25, on scenario [Cargo] Kraków - Sędziszów (from the Kraków - Tunnel route) I have the following problem: the ETCS DMI asks for the driver's ID and I don't know what it is. Although I enter the train number (336020), as I ignore this information, the ETCS emergency brake is activated after a while. At no time can I apply power and I can't continue. Which identifier do I have to enter? Thank you for your time. Edited February 5 by jmluengor
jmluengor Posted February 5 Author Posted February 5 Thank you for your quick response. I'll try tomorrow, it's already approaching dinner time.")
jeroezie Posted February 7 Posted February 7 You will have to enter something. If you do not enet something, you will not he avle to complete the SOM (start of mission). And thus, you will remain in stand by mode (with the stand by symbol). If you enter something (real loco's here can even accept 0 for driver id and train number), you can complete the SOM. Afther completing the SOM, you can choise the start option in het main menu and you will be offered a different mode (for ertms level 1 is will be SR (staff responsible, an eye with an cross trough it), for level 2 probaly SR, sometimes OS (on sight, an eye symbol looking out on the track, can only happen if the etcs knows the position and driving direction, has connection to the radio block center and the dispatcher has cleared the signal). For level sph, you will be offered sph/national train protection mode, with an dimond symbol. If you remain in stand by mode, the roll away protection remains in place, and if you move more than a certain distance (as set in the national value for this, I don't know the Polish one, in The Netherlands it is 5 m) a service brake application will be enforced by the etcs. This us normal. You most perform the start of mission fully begore starting to drive, otherwise you won't get anywhere. Is the etcs is is not working, remember you can disable the etcs/evc (European vital computer). In the dragon loco (et25) and pendolino (ed250) theire is a switch on the backpanel allowing for this. You can also disable etcs/ertms in the game settings. Then the train will spawn in IS (isolation) mode, allowing you to do whatever you want because the whole system is disabled while you can still give power/drive. 1
jmluengor Posted February 7 Author Posted February 7 At least in this scenario, it doesn't matter what you enter on the DMI screen in relation to the driver ID and train number: after doing so, the start option in the DMI is NOT activated. The ETCS, in effect, applies emergency braking within a few seconds. The only option to play this scenario is to disable the EVC on the rear panel of the ET25. Thank you for your clarifications.
jeroezie Posted February 7 Posted February 7 Did tou enter the train data (train lengt, rake setting/percentage and such? 1
jmluengor Posted February 8 Author Posted February 8 The DMI menu only offers the options for driver identification and train data. It never allows anything else. I think that in this scenario I cannot enter data into the DMI because the line my train is running on does not have ETCS (although it is activated on the locomotive because it is the ET25). The solution to start the locomotive is to deactivate the EVC. The same happens in the Sedziszow - KWK Staszic scenario with this locomotive: if you do not deactivate the EVC you do not run.
jeroezie Posted February 8 Posted February 8 You shoukd select the sph level on non ertms lines and always enter the driver id and train data, no matter the level you will use. If you do not ener thevdriver id, train number, and train data, you con not complete the start of mission! Ths start of mission is requirt for all levels, including sph.
jmluengor Posted February 8 Author Posted February 8 As I mentioned in my previous message, the DMI screen does not allow me to enter any data other than the driver's ID and the train number. A suggestion: why don't you start either of the two activities I refer to and tell me what the DMI allows you to do? I repeat that by cancelling the EVC I have finished both activities. Greetings and thank you for your interest.

Greetings and thank you for your interest. I had no problems at all when starting the ET25 in the Krakow cargo scenario.. Make sure to follow these steps: 1 activate cabin; 2 enter driver id; 3 select level, probably SHP; 4 Main screen will show up. Start is greyed out, this is normal because the start of mission is not completed yet; 5 Select Train Data; 6 Choose 1xE6ACT for single loco ET25, or choose enter data in the bottom right corner for a train; 7 Fill in train category, length, brake percentage and max speed; 8 When the data are accepted, you will be prompted to fill in the train running number, fill this in; 9 Main menu will show up now. Start should be available. Contact the dispatcher now. 10 After reporting ready to depart and receiving the permission to do so, select the start option in the main menu, completing the start of mission. 11 Acknowledge the offered mode, this is a yellow flashing symbol, probably the diamond symbol for SHP; 12 You will see, that the mode has changed from stand by to the new mode. Only now you can mode the train/loco. Edited February 8 by jeroezie 1
jmluengor Posted February 8 Author Posted February 8 I will follow tomorrow - and step by step - your detailed indications. Dinner time is very close and I don't forgive that. ")
jmluengor Posted February 10 Author Posted February 10 Your detailed explanation was very useful for the [EIP] Kraków - Warszawa scenario, where I ran without any problems under SHP and later with ETCS levels 1 and 2. However, the DMI interface that appears in the activity with ET25 ([Cargo] Kraków - Sędziszów) does not allow confirming any data (no Enter option appears at any time) or selecting the train type. It never shows the Start option. See the image I attached. That is all it allows. Thank you for your explanations.
jmluengor Posted February 10 Author Posted February 10 This is all that the DMI screen allows you to do. There is no possibility to confirm the data that is entered. Thank you for your time. Grabación de pantalla 2025-02-10 203908.mp4
SIMRAIL Team GoppelPL Posted February 11 SIMRAIL Team Posted February 11 Ooooh, that's what you're talking about. Click the light grey area where you put the data in to confirm it. 1
jmluengor Posted February 11 Author Posted February 11 Wow! I read your answer this morning and I just put your solution into practice. Indeed, all data is confirmed with the cursor. Thank you both for your help and for the time you have dedicated to me.
