Hello.
Is it possibly in a way to get a contact signal virtual, via Dispatcher.

I want to get a button on the screen to end a route. If the train didn't came to the end. And all the signal go back to `normal`like ended tour.

I have tested with a screen button in Dispatcher.
The turnout I have linked to this button for test, works well.
But no respons on the contact I have linked as `Viritual/momentery contact`. This contact is in normal youse.

Can somebody help me?

Hello Nils,

your train didn't ride to the end of the route? I'd recommend the iTNF. You define your iTNF as a collection of the last contacts. So if the train stops on any of these contacts the end of the route is reached and WDP releases that route.

Hello,

you can not set a real contact to a virtual occupied state. This is not possible.

If you want a second virtual contact to release your route manually you need to define a new virtual contact and at this with or junction to your route´s release conditions.

But to be honest. If have not heard such an idea before.

Hei

I understand you don't have seen the issue.

This layout is for the Norwegian locomotive driver school.

And all train is driven by hand. The teacher set the route.
In some issue the train is going back to the depart when it has set some wagon in a yard.

In that case I want to delete the route in a easy way. And the signal is going correct after that.

The trouble I don't find out hove to youse virtual signal

Hello Nils,

I think I had understood it correctly.

You want to delete/release a route where the train has not reached the destination by a virtual signal/contact.

As described:
Draw a virtual Signal to your track diagram, assign a virtual contact (one contact number that is not used at any other place in your project).
Add this virtual contact to release condition of the route as second release contact and set the option to OR in the release condition of the route. Then the route will be released by your virtual contact or the real contact.

Markus

Hei Markus.

That wil fix it. :)

But I don't find how to draw and program virtual contact :-[

Can't find out in the manual.
And in the Track diagram. Can I have a little hint where?

Her is a Litle video from the layout.
Look at the dvarf signal in to the station. 3 picture when passing the signal. ;D
And lamp in the end off the station so tel the driver he is over the last turnout. It is a lot of programing her.
