    Hi everyone,

    I am wondering if anyone one else has experienced the "circle" button not acknowledging the ATC and ACSES systems on both the MBTA F40PH and the cab car? The button silences the alerter but I have to use the cursor to silence the ATC and ACSES, or I get emergency brake application. Is this how it is meant to be, or is this a bug that should be reported? Circle serves both functions on the Amtrak, but not on MBTA, and it took me quite a few runs to figure out what was going on with the safety systems.

    Thank you. Seems odd that they would not have implemented it in the same way on the MBTA and Amtrak. But good to know it is not just a bug or a settings issue for me.

    Should have read other posts before posting. It appears Matt has stated that this is a bug and is going to be fixed, so the circle button can acknowledge both. This thread can be closed.
