Linking Signals

Dear Ronnie
                         Can you please write a tutorial on linking signals on a route.



                                                                Thanks
                                                                                Antony

Hi Antony,

What do you mean by linking signals?

Several signals behind each other are linked automatically. If you look into the sigcfg.dat file of each route you will find the line:

Code:

SignalNumClearAhead ( x )

"x" representing the number how many signals ahead the will be set to clear (for example for 4-aspect signalling this should be set to 3 - one stop, one caution, one attention).

What you can do with special junction signals is linking them to a switch so they show different aspects depending on the position of the switch.
