Pafawag 3E PKP ET21 Series Electric Locomotive

WARNING! New locomotive driving sequence. READ MANUAL (S.3,4). Thank you.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi and welcome to my railway kingdom once again! Today I’d like to present you the model closing the pilot era of my builds - ET21!! Backbone of electrification on Polish State Railways has become my backbone and benchmark for quality and efficiency. I hope that as much as I enjoyed building it, you will enjoy driving it. And fear not, there will be things to haul with this soon.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ET21-144, locomotive responsible for causing collision with a passenger train on Łowicz station on 31st march 1965. While leading a freight train bound for Kutno, it ran through semaphore indicating “STOP” and collided with a passenger train 4036 lead by a pre-war Electric Multiple Unit EW52-02, injuring several maintenance staff members present onboard and killing it’s driver. Thankfully, no passengers were present onboard, as the train was still being prepared for the next route.

Manual:

Step 1. Before start
- Go to engine room from Cabin A side, and turn On “Main Battery” and “Traction Motors Powerage”. You should hear an Alarm Buzzer go off, go to any cabin and delete it with “CA/SHP”.

Step 2. Start
(In order to change from which end you control (Default Cabin A), press control button in any cabin)
- In engine room closer to Cabin B, switch “Triple-pipe directional valve” into closed position and switch “Compressor Air Inlet Valve” of Auxiliary Compressor into open position.
- Turn On “Auxiliary Compressor”.
- In cabin, switch "Safety Lock Disable" On, and pulse “Overflow/Differential Relay Close” and “Compressors Overflow Relay Close”.
- Wait until “Main Tank Pressure” reaches around 0.1 and try to raise Pantograph B by pulsing the “Raise Pantograph B” (if locomotive was previously used and air is above 0.1 skip this step, and by the way it doesn’t really matter what pantograph you choose to raise)
- Switch On “Fast Cut Off" until “Fast Cut-Off Active” indicator glows.
- In engine room Turn Off "Auxiliary Compressor".
- Turn On “Compressor”, “Converter” and “Traction Motors Ventilators”
- In engine room, wait until pressure is 0.3 and switch “Triple-pipe directional valve” into open position.

Step 3. After start – prepare for route
- In order to gain "drive" ability, "Set Braking Force" should be at "-1" or "0". Main Conduit should fill automatically.
- Perform brake check procedure. Set braking force at values from "1" to "5", wait untill pressure in conduit drops and in cyllinder rises, then set braking force to "0", conduit should start filling in. You can speed up the process by pressing "Cylinger Pressure Release" button. Braking position "6" triggers emergency brake. To release pressure after emergency braking, set braking force at "-1" to perform impact filling of the conduit.
- (Optional) Choose D or R for forward drive or reverse drive (default D)
- (Optional) Turn on lights
- (Optional) Turn on radiotelephone and set channel, be sure to check radiotelephone 1-0-1!

Step 4. Driving.
- In order to drive, if on position 0 press "Position Up" once to go to position 1, or if on positions from 2 to 36, also move Drive adjuster wheel to position 1. Wait around 1-2 seconds until main circuit is closed. It is indicated by rise of amperage on "Traction Motors Amperage" gauges, and of course you'll notice because you'll start moving. Then player can add positions normally.
- Because of introduction of "Pressure Cut Off System" valve, and the "Linear Contactors Cut Out" everytime locomotive brakes are activated, by player or CA/SHP/Radiostop, or the Drive Adjuster Wheel is set back to 0, "drive" is gone, untill the Drive Adjuster Wheel is turned to position 1 for around 1-2 seconds, so the circuit can close.

Features:
- Polish Safety System CA/SHP (a.k.a. Dead-Man Switch)
- Polish Radiotelephone Safety and Communication Device
- Realistic drive and control system
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Radiotelephone "1-0-1"
- Turn On with flipswitch
- Select Channel using arrow buttons
- If there is emergency press "!RADIOSTOP!", stops your train and others
within proximity of 1000m on the same channel
- To regain control and reset the alarm push "Reset" until alarm stops (about 10s)

WARNING! Resetting radiostop is individual for each unit with it equipped. Works only with units equipped with Radiotelephone.
