|
|
<p>JMRI Signals Masts are managed in the Signal Mast Table. You access this tool from the
|
|
<strong>Tools > Tables > Signal Masts</strong> menu.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>You may change the order of the columns by dragging their titles, and sort the rows by
|
|
clicking one of the sort triangles next to a column title.<br>
|
|
There are nine columns in the Signal Head Table:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>System Name, most often set automatically based on the Signal Mast connection type and
|
|
other settings</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>User Name, double click to enter your own description or number for this Signal
|
|
Mast</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Aspect, this column shows the current Aspect of a Signal Mast. You can change it
|
|
manually by selecting a value from the pop up list</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Comment, double click this field to enter text about the location of the Signal Mast or
|
|
other notes</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Delete, click on this button to delete a Signal Mast. Use with care!</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
<a href="SignalMastAddEdit.shtml">Edit</a>, clicking on one of these buttons opens a
|
|
panel where you can disable some of the available Aspects and the Lit status for this
|
|
Signal Mast. Note: The System Name, Signal Mast type and driver cannot be changed once a
|
|
Signal Mast has been created. <a href="images/VirtMastPanelApply.png"><img src=
|
|

|
|
"Add signal mast"></a>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Edit Logic, this button opens the Signaling Pairs panel showing the lines for this
|
|
Signal Mast, from which you can access the <a href=
|
|
"../../../../html/tools/signaling/SignalMastLogic.shtml">Signal Mast Logic</a>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Lit, shows whether this Signal Mast is Lit, which can be changed by clicking on the
|
|
checkbox, via Signal Mast Logic or by Logix</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Held, if this property is checked the Signal Mast will not follow the Signal Mast Logic
|
|
e.g. to hold a train at this location waiting for orders.</li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
|
|
<p>To define a new Signal Mast, click on the "<a href="SignalMastAddEdit.shtml">Add..</a>"
|
|
button below the Signal Mast Table. The window that opens next will prompt you for whatever
|
|
setup information is needed.</p>

|
|
<p>After you clicked on one of the "Edit Logic" buttons in the Signal Mast Table, the
|
|
Signaling Pairs window appears. Choose one of the displayed lines and click the "Edit" button
|
|
to open the Edit window.</p>
