HADES
5.3. Setting the departure time
In state of delivery, the departure time is set to 5 seconds, which normally allows an
unobstructed operation. The set time always is valid for all tracks. You can adapt the time (in
1 second-steps) to a time between 2 and 20 seconds.
In the following cases you have to adapt the time:
While a train is still departing from a siding, track section A is already switched currentless
or HADES detects an error (due to a supposed torn off carriage). In this case you have to
prolong the departure time.
Although a train has departed from the siding already some time ago, the entry turnout is
not set to "diverging" into the siding. In this case you have to shorten the departure time.
Please note: Especially when trains are incoming into the staging yard at frequent intervals,
a too long departure time possibly causes malfunction.
You can adapt the departure time at any time during ongoing operation. Proceed as follows:
Press push-button "Z" (cor choosing random operation) at the basic module and hold it.
In order to shorten the departure time by 1 second: Press push-button "exit from siding 1"
at the basic module shortly or
In order to prolong the departure time by 1 second: Press push-button "exit from siding 2"
at the basic module shortly
The module acknowledges having recieved the setting by changing the status of the LED for
operation mode "Z" (from "on" to "off" or reverse).
As soon as you release push-button "Z", the LED for operation mode "Z" changes to the initial
status.
Hint: You can shorten or prolong the departure time by 1 second at a time. If you want to
make further adaptions, you have to repeat the procedure.
