RE: How do I use Different outcomes

Multiple outcomes are not branching functions. When you trigger the location event all of the outcomes (up to 4) are triggered at the same time (no branching logic here). For example if you had "train reaches speed" action events to penalize the operator for violating speed limits you would have one of these for each of the speed limits and all but the one for the active speedlimit would need to be set at activation level "0" and the active one would be set to activation level "1". A location event placed at a speed limit change from 25MPH to 45MPH would have two outcomes:
1. Change the activation level for the 25MPH action event from 1 to 0.
2. Chnage the activation level for the 45MPH action event from 0 to 1.In addition you could have a third outcome which puts up a message from the dispatch.To make the second outcome happen set the number of outcomes to to in the number of outcomes pick list and define the secound outcome after selecting its tab.Be Seeing you.
