Disabling ATB in the tunnel

Post by AugTop »

Hello everyone!
I have a little problem on the Rijndam 2022 map, in "explore" mode: when I put any train, after having changed the train numbers and prepared the right way using the CVL, I start my train normally until the ATB displays a "10 permissief". In manual driving, no problem, I deactivate the train safety and can go up to 160 km/h in the tunnel. How can I deactivate the ATB in IA driving mode in order to run several trains simultaneously in the tunnel?
Thanks for your help!

You mean the channel tunnel section of the network?
There is no ATB there, but ERTMS; you need to use either the TRAXX locomotive or the HSM. Just like on the HSL section.

Thank you for your answer. Indeed, it works well with the hsm, on the other hand, it is impossible to spawn a TRAXX locomotive on the map (the mod has been installed, but I can't find it in the "other vehicles" window). Do you have a solution ?
Thanks again!

"mod"? :?

The TRAXX addon can be downloaded here: https://sim.bemined.nl/wiki/TRAXX_F140_MS.
After installing this, you can find the locomotives in explore mode under "TRAXX".

Sorry if it is not proper in this topic, but does the HSM have ERTMS? When I try to go into the Channel Tunnel with that it only shows ATB 40 km/h code :?

I used the simulators ZUB-functionality to emulate (simplified) ERTMS, by creating a ERTMS looking interface in the TRAXX locomotive, and programming ERTMS balises (those yellow boxes in between the rails) in the same way as the ZUB transponders. Therefore, the HSM, which has ZUB (in one cab only), will also work on the HSL and Channel tunnel in Rijndam.
And.... The TRAXX will also work on the ZUB parts of the network, showing it as ERTMS :D

Indeed, I meant add-on. This last one is well installed, I have the traxx in activity. In explore mode, I don't have a traxx box in the "Add vehicle"...
Do you know where the problem may come from?

Oh, that's the thing! I was probably using the wrong cab those few times I went into the tunnel with HSM!
