Each pair represents one 8-bit +byte of the event id. This event id is either produced by a sensor or logic +element or is consumed by a control/device or a logic element. + +For blocks the occupency script contains a pair of LCC event ids, separated by +a colon (:). The first LCC event id is produced by the occupency detector +when the train enters the block and the second LCC event id is produced by the +occupency detector when the train leaves the block. + +For switchmotors the point sense script contains a pair of LCC event ids, +separated by a colon (:). The first LCC event id is produced by the point +sensor when the points are aligned in the "normal" position (typically aligned +to the main) and the second LCC event id is produced by the point sensor when +the points are aligned in the "reverse" position (typically aligned to the +spur). The normal and reverse script each contain a signal LCC event id. +These events are produced by the CTC Panel when the control point Code button +is pressed (clicked) and are consumed by the switch motor. + +For signals, the aspect name is a space separated list of the color(s) of the +signal heads from top to bottom and the aspect script is a LCC event id that +is consumed to produce that aspect. Presumably, the LCC event id is produced +by a logic element (presumably a mast group in a Tower-LCC or similar device) +or virtual track circuit in a Tower-LCC or similar device. + +\rule + + \A{} Messages and Explanations \H{messageType} \i{Message Types} @@ -236,3 +274,4 @@ Menu and sub-menu items are indicated by \e{File>Open}, which means select the \ \K{messageList} provides detail explanation of each information or error message. \rule + -- cgit v1.2.3
