    What does this signal mean and what should I do as I pass it? I get E-braked every time I pass it and acknowledging doesn’t seem to work.

    yeah acknowledging doesn't work, you gotta hold the override (Befehl) button until you passed the magnet, and stay below 25 km/h during that. the three yellow dot's shape a V but I don't know what it means right now, probably something like "Vorsicht" though (caution/attention)

    Isn't the maximum speed while doing such maneuver 40kph? The Leuchtmelder does indeed say Befehl 40 afterall...

    As far as I know the signal is a Zs7. After pasing it you have to continue on sight to the next signal. This means the maximum speed is 40kmph, however you should take the enviromental factors into consideration when choosing your speed - when driving on sight, the operator has to be prepared for sudden stops. For example when it's nighttime your speed should only be about 25kmph.
    Hope this helps
