English term or phrase: slot (verb)
Bypass Occupancy

The Bypass Occupancy function is used to bypass an occupancy indication when a non-communicating train occupies an entire wayside block and causes the corresponding entrance signal *to slot*.
This allows the signal to display a restrictive indication.
When non-communicating trains approach virtual signals that are on Interlocking Virtual Block (IVB) boundaries, they occupy the entire wayside block (i.e., all IVBs).
This causes virtual signals *to slot*.

Reference information:
Slotting
Slotting is an interlocking technique applied to certain signals to prevent a confusing or dangerous display. One common use is where, on the same post, a stop signal is controlled from one signal box and a distant signal is controlled from the following box. This happens where block sections are short. Slotting prevents the distant signal from showing clear unless the stop signal is also clear. SigScribe4 can simulate this action within the Lever Frame interlocking. Another situation in which slotting is applied is that where a single signal arm is controlled from more than one Lever Frame. Again, this can happen where sections are short and the location of one signal box's starting signal corresponds to the next signal box's home signal. Slotting is used to ensure that such a signal shows clear only when both boxes have pulled the corresponding levers. MODRATEC has developed a mechanical gate which can be used to 'slot' signals controlled from different locations. (See the 'WIT Products' page at our web site.)

DPPS™ interfaces with the Fenix Tiffenbach signalling system, enabling Zonegreen to improve operations by eliminating the stop/start entrance and exit procedure experienced by most facilities at the point where depot protection begins.

Zonegreen uses a slotting arrangement to identify when it is safe for train movements to take place. If staff log on to DPPS™, the signalling system is prevented from setting a route onto the road where personnel are working. Warning beacons and klaxons offer an additional audible and visual element to the safety procedures, indicating when vehicles are in motion.
