    While driving a Little Test-Run on Köln-Aachen using the Scenario-Editor and the BR185.2 from RSN Preserved I noticed that the PZB allways runs in the M-Mode; It does not matter wether you selected U-, M-, or O-Mode.

    I´ve noticed this while trying to reach the Maximum Permitted Speed of the Loco (140 kph). The PZB triggers an Overspeed-Warning at 125 and a Emergency-Brake application at ~130 kph.
    This happens regardless of the Mode under which the PZB is running. In this case, the PZB was set to O-Mode.

    It is not a bug. Because if the train is set in Pzb M mode the maximum permitted speed is 120kmh. At 125kmh you will get an allarm and at 130kmh the pzb applicate the emergency brake. The pzb don't see the track speed limit or the cab speed limit. It has its rules. If you are running under a pzb section every train need to obbey to the pzb limit (ice, talent, various db locos)

    I know, But i was not driving in M. I´ve set the PZB to O-Mode. This also happened in the U-Mode, which has lower Speedlimits.

    Try to completely stop the locos and restart the engine again. Than set the pzb in O mode. Than activate it and try. I need to try it myself too
