Lock BR103 would not drive

  • Hello,



    The BR103 would not start to drive after pressing H, releasing the brake (NUM 7) and after hearing the whistle. New for me was that I had to press the Del button before the train could go...
    During the trip, without doing anything a message is saying that the mains (H) is not switched on.
    What is the right procedure?
    It seems to me that the use of the BR103 is a bit deviating from other locks like the BR112 etc.


    Kind regards,
    Kees

    ......

    this is correct for 103 242 (from Andreas Zimmermann) as well as 103 233 (from Martin Finken).


    ...What is the right procedure?....


    The right procedure is:
    1. CTRL+B --> brings pantograph to the catenary
    2. H


    With kind regards
    Rainer


    edit: the above described procedure ist correct for 103 242.
    For 103 233 you have to use in Loksim 2.6
    1. CTRL+R --> reverser (to drive in forward direction)
    2. CTRL+B --> brings pantograph to the catenary
    3. H
