|
|
|
|
<p>There are four tabs for adding and editing LRoutes:</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Tab 1: Basic LRoute</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>The first thing you must do when creating an LRoute is to name it. In the box labeled
|
|
"System Name" enter a unique name for your LRoute. The prefix "RTX" will be added to the
|
|
System Name. You can optionally enter a more descriptive name in the "User Name" box.</p>
|
|
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt>Logix Route Type</dt>
|
|
|
|
<dd>The radio buttons below the tab descriptions set the triggering mode for the "Veto"
|
|
control variables (see below for an explanation of Veto). To emulate the behavior of Routes
|
|
(as opposed to LRoutes) select the <strong>Old</strong> option. (Standard Routes do not not
|
|
trigger when the Veto condition is removed.) If you want the LRoute to trigger when the
|
|
Veto condition is removed, select the <strong>New</strong> option.</dd>
|
|
</dl>
|
|
The buttons at the bottom of the LRoute Table:
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt>Add Route</dt>
|
|
|
|
<dd>Push this button to add a new Logix Route.</dd>
|
|
|
|
<dt>Cancel</dt>
|
|
|
|
<dd>Push this button to cancel editing.</dd>
|
|
</dl>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Tab 2: Actions (output)</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>This tab contains a pick list of all the Sensors, Turnouts, Lights and Signal Heads that
|
|
have been created. Click the checkbox in the <strong>Include</strong> column to select the
|
|
device you want to include in the LRoute. Then choose the action you want the device to take
|
|
when the LRoute is triggered from the drop down menu in the <strong>Set Action</strong>
|
|
column.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The radio buttons allow you to limit the display of devices to only those you have already
|
|
selected.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Tab 3: Triggers/Controls (input)</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>This tab contains a pick list of all the Sensors, Turnouts, Lights and Signal Heads that
|
|
have been created. Click the checkbox in the <strong>Include</strong> column to select the
|
|
device you want to use to control in the LRoute. Then choose the state you want the device to
|
|
use for triggering the LRoute from the drop down menu in the <strong>Trigger State</strong>
|
|
column.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Devices selected with "non-veto" states are grouped as an "OR" clause. Triggers selected
|
|
with a "veto" state are grouped as an "AND" clause. That is, when <em>any</em> "non-veto"
|
|
state becomes True, the LRoute is able to trigger. However, if <em>any</em> of the "veto"
|
|
states is True, the LRoute will not trigger.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>On Tab 1, the Logix Route Type <strong>New</strong> will put the above logic into a single
|
|
Logix Conditional. If the <strong>Old</strong> option is selected, each trigger with a
|
|
"non-veto" state is put into a separate Conditional. The behavior for this option is: the
|
|
LRoute will trigger whenever one of these device states becomes True - even when the logical
|
|
expression as a whole is already True. Another difference when the <strong>Old</strong>
|
|
option is specified, is that the "veto" variables are not enabled for triggering. This means
|
|
the actions are not triggered when the vetoes are removed. Use the <strong>New</strong>
|
|
option if you want actions to be triggered when the vetoes are removed. In summary, the
|
|
<strong>Old</strong> option emulates a standard Route and the <strong>New</strong> option has
|
|
the behavior of a standard Logix Conditional. Variations on these behaviors can be tuned with
|
|
further editing in the Logix Table.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Note that control variables selected with "On Change" states need a separate Logix
|
|
Conditional in order for the LRoute actions to trigger on every change of state of these
|
|
variables.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The radio buttons allow you to limit the display of devices to only those you have
|
|
selected.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Tab 4: Alignment/Locks/Etc.</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>This tab contains a pick list of the Sensors that have been created. Click the checkbox in
|
|
the <strong>Include</strong> column to select a Sensor you want to use for indicating
|
|
completion of the LRoute actions. Then choose the type of action you want the Sensor to
|
|
monitor from the drop down menu in the <strong>Alignment</strong> column. You may choose to
|
|
have the Sensor indicate a particular type (Sensor, Turnout, Light, Signal Head or "All")</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The radio buttons allow you to limit the display of devices to only those you have
|
|
selected.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>A sound file may be entered to play when the LRoute is triggered. Likewise a script file
|
|
may be run when the LRoute is triggered.</p>
