the schedule are drawn transparently in the background. In a specific mode of the software<br />

you can easily pick and add them to the current schedule with a click of the mouse<br />

to these objects.<br />

Additionally one or more starting blocks and optionally one or more destination blocks<br />

are to be specified. Starting blocks are marked in the schedule diagram with a small<br />

green marking, destination blocks with an orange or red marking. In the diagram above<br />

“Hidden Yard 3” is marked as a starting block and “Southtown 1” is marked as a destination<br />

block.<br />

In order to start this schedule, assign an arbitrary train to block “Hidden Yard 3”, select<br />

the schedule on the computer screen and call the appropriate start command of Train-<br />

Controller. The Visual Dispatcher will automatically allocate the blocks and activate<br />

the routes, that belong to this schedule and will automatically start the train. When the<br />

train reaches the stop indicator in “Southtown 1” then the schedule is terminated.<br />

A schedule can only contain elements, that are also contained in the main block diagram.<br />

The location of each element in the display is determined by the location of the<br />

referenced element in the main block diagram. If an element in the main block diagram<br />

is changed, moved or deleted then this change is reflected in all schedule diagrams. In<br />

this way multiple schedules can be conveniently maintained by changes of the main<br />

block diagram.<br />

Start and Destination of a Schedule<br />

Each schedule contains one or more start blocks and one or more destination blocks.<br />

Start blocks are marked in the schedule diagram with a small green marking, destination<br />

blocks with an orange marking.<br />

It is required that you mark the desired start and destination blocks otherwise the<br />

schedule cannot be started.<br />

In Diagram 101 “Southtown 2” is marked as start block to the right and “Northville 1”<br />

is marked as destination block to the left.<br />

Start, destination and other schedule specific section settings are entered in the dialog<br />

box displayed below.<br />
