How can you have a signal failure on an ATO system?

Or is "signal failure" just an LU catch all phrase for a computer failure? Yes. For reasons I can't remember, there are only something like 5 or 6 possible phrases they'll use to explain delays to the public. "Signal failure" is very broad and could mean any kind of signalling/ ATO/points/etc problem. "Passenger action" is another one. "Signal failure" is at least meaningful (though posibly slightly misleading). The phrase "passenger action" deserves to be sent to the same hell to which I would banish all management speak.
