Hi there, oh my I feel a little bit ashamed asking this but the day before yesterday I encountered a hefty Zwangsbremsung on Frankfurt-Fulda with the 101 Expert and was unable to recover and get the train moving. As per se I search the error on my side, I took all my courage and ask for a solution. I have the feeling it might happen again lol So, what happened? Right before Hanau Hbf (ca. 1,2 km away) the LZB ended and I was too fast for the upcoming 110 km/h restriction. Zwangsbremsung.The train grinded to an halt. From that moment on, the LZB siren (the sound when speed limit changes or LZB ends) was going off nonstop (tröööt-tröööt-tröööt) like in a panic mode. The red "G-icon" was lit. On the Störung-Screen there was "Zwangsbremsung wegen LZB" and V>0 and V=0 stated, I should turn off/reset the LZB or even better restart the computers. I searched (in the) manual ... but couldn't find a solution and now the amateurish error solving began: - tried PZB release, sound played, didn't change anything - reverser to neutral - reverser to off - removed the reverser! => still LZB panic sound and G lit - pressed the LZB button at the ZDA terminal, nothing changed - lowered pento, turned off battey, nothing (ok here I desperately tried to somehow "turn off the computers") - "Don't cry now, you can do then when returning home ..." - Searched the LSS for LZB/PZB, flipped it off/on (was on) - Searched the "Absperrventil" for PZB/LZB but wasn't sure and let it be - TSW prompted me if I want to give up the control (like a punch in the face at first this message! I was offended!) and after thinking for some seconds I pressed "yes". The AI driver spawned in the seat, turned off the alarm and drove off with the train. I was standing now 1,2 km away from Hanau besides the tracks and don't wanted to live anymore ... Sooo, how to recover from such an incident? I'm pretty sure the answer lies in the manual since no one asked this before hehe Have a nice one! Kind regards
Pretty sure you probably made a wrong lzb exit partern. After acknowledge the "lzb ende" you are still under Lzb guidance, but you pzb starts to "read" the magnets. Probably that caused your emergeny brake + too fast as you say.
Thanks for this post, this made me smile, as I am pretty sure we all have been in similar situations with this complex addon. I like the fact you didn’t jump to the conclusion that it must be a bug Have you tried to press the „LZB Stör“ on the ZDE? This should disable LZB
I had what may be a similar situation when I had taken the cab car to Hanau and saved the game so that I could continue the journey Fulda. When I resumed the game, SIFA was inactive, PZB 85 was flashing, and LZB Stör was lit. After several attempts of panic button pusehes and fuse flips, I discovered that flipping the LZB fuse off and then back on enabled me to enter the train data on the back panel. Everything was good to go after that.
