Question On Br 193 Vectron Db (country & Power)

On route Spoorlijn: Zwolle – Groningen there are different services/time tables.

One of the selections is this train.

Howerver, driver assist tells me about an error.



How and where does one set the country and overhead power voltage?

Please and thank you

 

There is a good video on YouTube thats shows you to set it up correctly.

 

Lower the pantograph, turn off the MCB, there is a German flag on the locomotive monitor and a button next to it. After pressing, select the correct country and power supply. Confirm this. Then raise the pantograph. The locomotive will perform a test and allow the MCB to be turned on.

 

Which video?

 

While it is a good video, how do I know what country and power to select if I was on a different route if I find another one route with overhead wires when that error shows up?

Please and thank you

 

You would have to be familiar with the route and what system they use. When you choose what route and train to drive in the menu, you will see which country it is.

 

This won't happen. The Dutch route is the only option where you need to change the power supply voltage.

 

I meant setting up the train.

Good to hear/read if it is true.

 

1000% correct at this point. Perhaps other routes will eventually appear that feature Vectron, but not right now. In any case, the voltage adjustment algorithm is the same everywhere.

 

Austria has a option for the Vectron. It changes the brake modes and timing settings also.
