Semantics

Best Practice / Examples

The <signalIndicator> element is for rather special purpose. In some cases the signal is fitted with additional indicators on the mast which might be activated in combination of the normal signal aspect or even completely independent. However, the indicator status is to be indicated with a separate graphic element on the HMI independent of the signal status. In order to access and control this additional element for the <signalBox> or the <controller> (HMI) this asset is defined.
