Go into the menu, signs, and match sign 2 up to the one you want, i.e. change S2 * (Switch 2 default) to S2 5 (Switch 2 read Sign Number 5) if your 32x17 is usually sign number 5. It resets to default when the next operator puts their data on. You can do it in HELEN itself too, in Console Config, Modify, Signs, drop down box for Switch 2 to match the sign number you want for that bus, but you'll need to remember to change it back once you've transferred the list to the MMC.
Thanks - we were already aware of how to 'temporarily' change the switch setting via the DG3, but we wanted to avoid this as ADL did not look best pleased that we had to change switch settings.
Thankfully the route number is still visible on the rear so it doesn't affect us too greatly. I'd suggest that it's probably not the end of the world with this demonstration vehicle only being in the fleet for a period of two weeks - it will be more important to ensure everything is working as it should on the StreetDeck, which will be here for two months. To save unnecessary complications when it transfers from depot to depot, this vehicle will have to be profiled correctly through Hanover's HELEN software.
