loco problems

[eebo123]

I have set up trains in windigipet and also some tours, all ok when I turn off system and backup, next time I turn on system all the train label speedos go to a maximum of 20km and if I run the tours the engines go round at full speed, also if I move an engine manually the speedo does not move

can you help

Hello,

can you give us some more information, please? Which version of WDP do you use? What is your digital central? How have you entered the locos into the database and how did you make the routes?

[eebo123]

version is premium 2012 English, I am using intellibox 2, I set the locos up pressing on the loco button on the toolbar and the routes and tours using the appropriate wizards?

Hello Ian,

can you please provide us with a backup of your data. Make a backup without the loco pictures and symbols.

Hello Ian,

you have to make speed measurements with all of your locos. You didn't do this, yet. 3 of your locos have no speed measurement and the other 3 are all set to 0 km/h maximum speed. This can't work.

Please take the time and make the measurement. This will help!

how do I make the speed measurement please??

[Stefan Lersch]

Hello Ian,

this can't be answered in two or three words. Please read the manual chapter 5.9.5 and look for the calibration. There are the speed measurement and the calibration. I mean the later though the terms are often mixed.

If you have questions after reading please do not hesitate to ask.

i have calibrated the locos on the measurement track, when i re start them back on the tours they move at 3kmh?

[eebo123]

here is another backup after i calibrated locos, could you please check if i have done this correctly, and why the locos run at 3kmh on a tour now?

regards ian

Hello Ian,

unfortunattely the calibration is not correct. The measured speeds should form a line from the left bottom corner close to 0 km/h up to the right upper corner.

Additionally I had a look at your calibration measuring track. A is the contact where the loco starts. B is the contact where it speeds up, C is the measuring area. D slows down the train and E stops it. You entered a length for C of 810 cm. This is veeeeery long! Are you sure this is correct? Do not enter the lengths of A to E but only of C!

What did you do with the decoders? The acceleration delay and deceleration should be set to 1.

[eebo123]

810cm is the correct length for this feed section, I could start section A, where I have section D
all I done after this was save and close, what do you mean about what did I do with the decoders??
