2.2.10 Machine Status Panel - See Figures 2.2-24 and 2.2-25
1. The Machine Status Panel on the Travel and Work Screens displays the following machine
operating parameters:
(1) Gearbox Shift Indicators - Front / Rear: The upper indicator is for the front axle and
the lower indicator is for the rear axle. The gearbox shift indicators display the
engagement status of the applicable axle gearbox. See Gearbox Shift Indicators for
operation information.
(2) Motor Output Sliders - Front / Rear: The upper slider is for the front axle and the lower
slider is for the rear axle. The motor sliders display the stroke status of the applicable
axle motor. When the highlighted green slider is at the bottom most position, the
motor stroke is at maximum stroke. When the highlighted green slider is at the top
most position, the motor stroke is at the minimum stroke.
a. Motor strokes are automatically adjusted during the Work Mode to prevent
wheel spin. This allows the machine to “feel out” the limits of adhesion and to
compensate for the unequal weight of the two axles.
b. If enabled, the machine can also automatically adjust the “hydraulic decel”
applied in the Work Mode to prevent sliding while hydraulically decelerating.
(3) Surfacing Indicators - Left / Right: During surfacing operations when the
shadowboard is positioned so the receiver photocells can see the projector light
beams, the applicable left and/or right surfacing indicator will highlight red to indicate
that the Jacking Cycle will occur on that side only to lift the rail. If the shadowboard is
positioned so it has either or both of the projector light beams blocked, the applicable
surfacing indicator will un-highlight gray to indicate that the Jacking Cycle will NOT
occur on that side to lift the rail.
(4) Lining Indicator: During lining operations when the shadowboard is positioned so the
receiver photocell can see the projector light beam, the center lining indicator will
highlight amber to indicate that the Lining Cycle will move the track. The arrow on the
indicator will also point in the appropriate direction that the track will be moved. If the
shadowboard is positioned so it has the projector light beam blocked, the center
amber lining Indicator will un-highlight gray to indicate that the Lining Cycle is
completed.
(5) Pump P1 / P2 Pressure Sliders: The applicable pump P1 (left) and pump P2 (right)
sliders will highlight yellow to display the actual pump PSI as it increases or
decreases.
