Conductor/Speed supervision
Fig. 6 Conductor
This locomotive has an optional conductor with speed supervision function. If enabled (in surveyor),
the conductor will warn you when you are driving more the 5 MPH over speed limit. If you are still
speeding after the second warning, he will apply the emergency brake. Once the speed drops below
the speed limit, he will close the emergency brake valve. You can cancel the emergency brake
application releasing the train brake and setting the throttle to the idle position. Once the red PCS
OPEN light goes off, the throttle gains efficiency again.
If you are driving in an outside camera mode, you cannot watch and hear the conductors warning.
You will get a (cascaded) warn message instead.
