eginning. Appropriate operations are assigned to the macro, that first remove the lock
from the exit of the related block and then start the schedule. For example, the macro,
that controls the exit from “Hidden Yard 2” to the right, executes removing the exit lock
of “Hidden Yard 2” to the right plus start of the schedule. In the same way the other
macros are configured, one macro for each track and each side of the “Hidden Yard”.
With an appropriate operation, that restores the lock to the exits and executed by the
schedule, when the block is released (see page 143), we can ensure that the exit lock of
the start block is restored to the default.
In the first case a route is started instead of the schedule and in the second case a macro.
In either case the schedule is indirectly started by the route or the macro, respectively,
by their operations. The actions performed before the schedule is actually started ensure,
that the right train leaves the “Hidden Yard”.
In both cases we can additionally trigger the route or the macro, respectively, by appropriate
start- and destination keys (see page 65) from a switchboard or an external control
panel. This provides the possibility to select the train to be started from such panel,
too.
