shown on the destination signs, for example, 'Merry Xmas!' or 'No evening service today'. Each message
has its own code number. It is shown as Info no:.
In this case, the information code is set to 32; a similar process to that used for changing the destination
code applies if a change is required.
Advert code
The advert code is accessible if the configuration code AN is set to enable (refer to Appendix E:
Configuration Code Options). In the same way, each advertising message to be shown on an in-bus sign
is selected using its own code. It is shown as Advert no:.
All the codes are set up using Helen software (for more details, please refer to Helen software v3.3 display-
editing software – operating manual (ref. 540125)) and stored in the database deployed by the controller
for use by the driver or whoever needs to decide what is shown on a vehicle's signs.
Lock code
The lock code is accessible using the F/E key on the front panel of the controller. This 4-digit password
provides access to a large range of configuration and other settings - please refer to section 3.5 Accessing
other functions of the DG3. It is shown as Lock code:.
Other configurations
The DG3 controller can be configured in several other ways, for example, to use the route browse or driver-
selectable route number functions or to show only a route number. These options are set using the Helen
software. Details are given in section 7 of the Helen display-editing software - operating manual (ref.
540125).
Possible configurations include:
Driver selectable route number
Route browse
Route number only
Out and return (round trip)
Two-line display
Accessing other functions of the DG3
A wide range of DG3 settings are accessible via the 'lock code' feature. Using the up, down and left arrows
to key in the appropriate 4-digit lock code provides access to these settings. DG3 configuration is best
carried out by configuring the settings in Helen and downloading them into the controller.
