    TCS emergency brakes activated again. Why?

    Perhaps someone could explain this section of the engine file to me;

    EmergencyStopMonitor(
    MonitoringDeviceMonitorTimeLimit( 0 )
    MonitoringDeviceAlarmTimeLimit( 0 )
    MonitoringDevicePenaltyTimeLimit( 0 )
    MonitoringDeviceCriticalLevel( 0 )
    MonitoringDeviceResetLevel( 0 )
    MonitoringDeviceAppliesFullBrake( 0 )
    MonitoringDeviceAppliesEmergencyBrake( 1 )
    MonitoringDeviceAppliesCutsPower( 1 )
    MonitoringDeviceAppliesShutsDownEngine( 0 )
    )

    VigilanceMonitor(
    MonitoringDeviceMonitorTimeLimit( 110 )
    MonitoringDeviceAlarmTimeLimit( 70 )
    MonitoringDevicePenaltyTimeLimit( 30 )
    MonitoringDeviceCriticalLevel( 0 )
    MonitoringDeviceResetLevel( 0 )
    MonitoringDeviceAppliesFullBrake( 1 )
    MonitoringDeviceAppliesEmergencyBrake( 0 )
    MonitoringDeviceAppliesCutsPower( 1 )
    MonitoringDeviceAppliesShutsDownEngine( 1 )
    )

    OverspeedMonitor(
    MonitoringDeviceMonitorTimeLimit( 0 )
    MonitoringDeviceAlarmTimeLimit( 0 )
    MonitoringDevicePenaltyTimeLimit( 0 )
    MonitoringDeviceCriticalLevel( 97 )
    MonitoringDeviceResetLevel( 0 )
    MonitoringDeviceAppliesFullBrake( 1 )
    MonitoringDeviceAppliesEmergencyBrake( 0 )
    MonitoringDeviceAppliesCutsPower( 1 )
    MonitoringDeviceAppliesShutsDownEngine( 0 )
    MonitoringDeviceAlarmTimeBeforeOverSpeed( 5 )
    MonitoringDeviceDoesSuppressionReset( 1 )
    MonitoringDeviceTriggerOnOverspeed( 96 )
    MonitoringDeviceResetOnZeroSpeed( 0 )
    MonitoringDeviceResetOnResetButton( 0 )
    )

    Then I may be able to understand why Open Rails activates the TCS Emergency Braking for no apparent reason

    Please attach a log file of an emergency application.

      I can't. My log file is "being used by another program" and OR does not seem to be writing to it on the very very rare instances of me turning logging on.

        You likely have a dormant copy of OR in memory, reboot and then attach the log file.

        I assume you are only using the logging tick on the front screen?

          Done that. No joy. Used CCleaner to clean up my disk, repair the registry and remove duplicate files. Rebooted. Log file is still corrupted is my guess. Cannot write to it. Cannot delete it. So no new log files.

          It's the only way I know to create a log file.

            How do you know it cannot be written to?

              The problem was that "Alerter in cab" was checked. As this is not a setting I usually use, the TCS brake was activating because I was not responding to the alerter.

              Perhaps instead of a little text notification of "Alterter sound", OR could be programmed to actually play a sound for the alterer sound.
