ATLS LCM set-up Question

[Dermmy]

EDIT - Problem solved - operator error - see post #4 below...

I have a situation where the triggers for two closely-placed crossings overlap as in the following screenshot:

Both main lines are set up for bi-directional running and use the 4-trigger system.

Trainz approaching from the bottom of the shot activate Xing 3 as they should, then the loco hits the 'activate' triggers for Xing 2 which activates as it should. However when the end-of-train clears the Xing3 'de-activate' triggers nothing happens. The train continues along, clears Xing2 which de-activates as it should, but Xing 3 remains active.

Same thing happens if the train runs the other way, except there obviously Xing 2 remains active.

The issue is NOT channel-related or any other set-up issue, everything there is checked, double checked and deffinitely OK. Both xings work perfectly if the other is removed.

What am I missing....

Andy, where are the ch 3 XING activating triggers on the other side?? Also, I use the four trigger system for both sides as it works while the simple, 2 trigger setting doesn't work (for me)

I have a similar set-up in a WIP of mine and it's fine

Thanks Jamie - I have added the line "Both main lines are set up for bi-directional running and use the 4-trigger system." to my original post to clarify.

Not sure which ch3 activation triggers you are asking about, but two are out-of-shot in the foreground and two are just this side of Xing2 in the distance...

Fixed! Oops! One of the de-activation triggers (out of shot in the foreground) was inadvertently placed on the invisible track connecting the slave to the stopper rather than on the track itself. Moving it to where it should have been fixed the issue...
