What about a bendy on 857 showing "857 ADMIRALTY ROAD WEST"? LOL, very old service.. The Admiralty Road West suppose to be 980 de but BC press wrongly, later it was being rectified when ppl saw the wrong EDS and asked the BC..
-

Yah, but it was not programmed inside. But true, all SMRT EDS databse should be kept up-to-date in order for all buses to have its correct EDS to be displayed and programmed completely without errors of any part. eg. if the BC press the coding and the EDS show the coding on it, means that coding was not used.
btw, many years back, TIB811J do 67 and later Off Service, when the front EDS displays '66', no route number.
talking about this issue, why do they have to press out a coding? why cant they simplify things and let the drivers just press out the service number itself? -

And there may be hardware limitations, for e.g., the driver has to press a 3 digit on the EDS panel and he can't press 2 digits.
Also, on older EDSes, the route number and the destination are seperately coded. They aren't together like on the OCs.
On the OCs, if I'm not mistaken, say if I wanna press out 851 twds Yishun, I'd press for e.g. 111, then if I wanted 851 twds Bukit Merah, I have to press 112.
On older buses (i.e. before OC generation), if I wanna press 851 twds Yishun I have to press 111 and 112. Then if I want 851 twds bukit merah, i'd have to press 111 and 113. That's why you have stuff like 859 towards Marina Ctr.
They won't revamp the system.
1. Cost
2. Old drivers whom are used to the (current) system
3. The basic theory of - if it ain't broken, don't touch it.

(01) Front EDS 922.. Rear Plate 920. Happened during crossover from 920 to 922.
(02) 180 without numbers and destination. Uncle forget press.
(03) Uncle forgot to clear EDS when he went off service from Bukit Panjang Int towards Kranji Depot. Shows "970 Bukit Panjang" and passes Bukit Panjang Road. -

(03) Sometimes it could be due to BC late or in the rush to go back depot after split shift usually. -
took 858 from changi..
desto plate at the back upside down. so i was like staring, and ponder, is it a correct way to put? so i noticed its upside down, so i took it out and change it. driver said thank you.. :)

Seen a 155 off service along Lor 4 before xD ppl were flagging it and BC was like waving off service. xD

actually i think that it is possible to input 2 digits, but it depends on what code they assigned to that service when they programmed the codes. just look at the Dennis Trident EDS, for 62, it is A: 30, B: 30, L: 0, M: 20.
where for SMRT, L: svc number, A/B: destination, M: message code
let's say for 912. what appears on the panel:
A: 214 B: 215
L: 214 M: 0so if i change the L to 216, it will appear 913, with 912 route details?

Yes, I believe so, that was what I'm told...if you can get your hands on the older batches you can try.
I've never played with an EDS before ;).
