A circular speed gauge accordingly to the standard European Train Control System
24+
(ETCS) can be added to the cabview. The information displayed in the Driver
25+
Machine Interface (DMI) is controlled via the TCS script. For more details,

The following DMI size variants are available:
66+
``FullSize`` displays the whole DMI,

``SpeedArea`` displays only the left part with information about distance and speed,

``PlanningArea`` displays only the right side planning area and navigation buttons.

Use the ``MaxVisibleSpeed`` to set the highest speed displayed as a number,

if literal numbering is undesirable above this number on the circular speed gauge.

The default value is the MaxSpeed rounded to the highest tens below.

Use the ``DisplayUnits`` parameter to suppress diplaying the speed unit at the

bottom of the circular speed gauge. The default is 1, displaying the units.

Use the ``Graphic`` parameter in 3D cabs to designate the static texture inside
79+
the .s file that will be replaced at runtime with the dynamic picture of the
80+
display. This parameter is mandatory. If omitted, or the named texture cannot
81+
be found in the model, no display will be shown.
