+===== Details =====
+These settings are except for the Arrive speed only for the last section where the train starts running in auto mode again.\\
+{{:stageblock:stageblock-details-en.png?800}}\\
+See **[[:block-details-en|Block Details]]** for a description of all settings.\\
+====Minimal occupied====
+===Trains===
+The train in the last section may only depart if the number of trains in this staging block is more or equal to this number.\\
+===Sections===
+The second field is the number of sections which must be __electrically occupied__ before the first train is allowed to leave.\\
+ \\
+====Best choice====
+This option will help to get trains choosing this staging block instead of other blocks.\\
+A random choice will happen if more than one available block to choose from has this option.\\
+====In event at train length====
+Generate the **in** event if the train completely fits in the staging block instead of reaching the destination section to free up the previous block.\\
+**Note:** //With this option active the wait time will be ignored if no other locomotives are in the stage block.//\\
+====Electrified====
+This option can be activated for staging blocks equipped with a catenary. \\
+If NOT set this prevents locos with **engine type electric** (see **[[:loc-details-en|Locomotive Details]]**) from using this staging block in auto mode.
+====Watchdog====
+Checks every x seconds if auto mode is enabled and if the head section is free and one or more trains are in the staging block to trigger compression.\\
+Compression is normally triggered by sensor events and lock/unlock commands, but under certain conditions this is not possible and in this case the watchdog will trigger it.\\
+The check interval in seconds can be set in the field at the right side of this option.\\
+===Timeout===
+Pending compression timeout in seconds if set greater then zero.\\
+ \\
+=====Wait=====
+====Type====
+The wait type for the locomotive in the last section.\\
+Avoid using **None** or a very short wait time, in combination with a manual operated exit signal to prevent unnecessary data traffic.\\
+ \\
+=====Speed=====
+====Arrive====
+The minimal speed is default and should be used if the sections are relative short.\\
+Both other speed options can be used, as the initial arriving speed, if there is enough room behind the section sensor to decelerate from Vmid to V0; Use with care.\\
+:!: **Please note:** Between the sections, the train always advances with the Arrive speed (Vmin, Vmid or %). \\
+Into the last section of an Compress action and into the last section of the Staging block, a train always drives with Vmin.\\
+Numerical selection is used by speed selection of %. \\
+===Use arrive speed to target section===
+This option __overrules__ the Vmin to the last section of an Compress action and into the last section of the Staging block, and uses the arrive speed.\\
+===Vmin to first section===
+Lok advances with Vmin to the end of the first section, if the subsequent sections are occupied.
+\\
+====Depart====
+The depart speed of the locomotive in the last section.
+ \\
+===== Commands (Right mouse click)=====
+==== Compress (move up)====
+  * Advance the occupying trains with the selected Arrive speed (Vmin, Vmid or %) towards the end section, to fill up gaps and make room at the start.
+  * Turn on the auto mode of the train waiting in the end section if the exit state is open.
+==== Close/Open exit ====
+Controls the output flow, exit, of the staging block.\\
+==== In/Out of Operation ====
+Controls the input flow, enter, of the staging block.\\
