BigVern Posted December 16, 2022 Posted December 16, 2022 I've switched off the DSD/vigilance as it's a pain I can do without. However I was wondering when passing signals at caution or indicating an upcoming lower speed there doesn't seem to be any form of safety system back up warning, as one might expect on German traction where you need to acknowledge the PZB flashing and reduce speed within a certain time and distance to avoid a penalty brake application. Is this just something that hasn't been implemented in game yet or is that just how Polish Railways operate?
Solution Schyrsivochter Posted December 16, 2022 Solution Posted December 16, 2022 The Polish national train control system is not really a ‘protection’ system like Indusi/PZB, even though the transmission technology is identical. It’s more like an additional vigilance system. On top of the normal timeout-based one (czuwak, Sifa, DSD etc.) you also have to acknowledge every signal you’re passing, using the same button or pedal. You’ve probably switched it off along with the czuwak. AFAIK, the SHP ‘magnets’ are placed a few hundred metres before most signals and/or at the location of exit signals. 2
BigVern Posted December 16, 2022 Author Posted December 16, 2022 In that case we could really do with an option to switch off the "timeout" system, but leave the signalling protection functional.
