Erfindungsgemäss wird ein Verfahren zur Steuerung und/oder Überwachung einer verkehrssteuernden und/oder verkehrsüberwachenden Funktionseinheit vorgesehen, bei dem:
a) eine dezentrales Steuerungs- und/oder Überwachungseinheit (ST) zur Steuerung und/oder Überwachung der Funktionseinheit (FE) vorgesehen wird, b) die dezentrale Steuerungs- und/oder Überwachungseinheit (ST) mit einer Speiseschnittstelle für eine elektrische Leistungsversorgung (SS) der Funktionseinheit (FE) versehen wird, und c) Daten für die Steuerungs- und/oder Überwachung der Funktionseinheit in Form von Schaltmustern eines elektrischen Speisesignals (SS) über die Speiseschnittstelle übermittelt werden, und die Funktionseinheit (FE) in Abhängigkeit von den übermittelten Daten gesteuert und/oder überwacht wird.
Auf diese Weise gestatten es das voranstehende Verfahren und das voranstehende dezentrale Stellteil, die Funktionseinheiten über eine geeignete Parametrierung des Speisesignals für diese Funktionseinheit zu Steuern und/oder zu überwachen. Es bedarf daher lediglich des Controllers im Stellteil, welcher die bedarfsweise gewünschte Funktion der Funktionseinheit durch eine entsprechende Ausgestaltung des Schaltmusters auf dem Speisesignal abruft. Auf diese Weise lassen sich nahezu beliebige Funktionseinheiten mit diesem Grundtyp von dezentralem Stellteil betreiben.
摘要:
A switch machine operates a track switch under radio control via a switch controller. The switch controller may be given an identifying address unique to it which distinguishes the switch machine from other switch machines in the railway territory. In addressing or programming the switch machine, a portable terminal is used. The controller in enabled by a manually actuable switch to accept identifying addresses which is stored in electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM). Whenever a message is received over the radio link, the identifying address is read out of memory. In order that the identifying address is vital (fail-safe) and to guard against any errors which change the identifying address and which can cause the controller to effectuate operation of the track switch in front of an oncoming train or when the train is over the switch, the address is stored in the EEPROM by encoding the identifying address into unique multi-bit check words. Whenever a request to read the address is received by the switch controller, an attempt is made to write check value words, the value of which is equal to the difference between the value of the unique check words and the check words. A check value word replaces a unique check word in the event of a failure in the EEPROM or its addressing logic. The check value is also read into a check word register. The content of the check word register and the location in EEPROM for the check word under test is read into exclusive or gates. If there is a failure, the output of the array is a word having a value of zero, whereas if there was no failure the result of the exclusive or operation will be a word having the value of the check word. These check words are used in providing a vital output message for controlling the track switch and to provide and acknowledge message for transmission over the radio link to the central office or locomotive which communicates with the railway track switch controller. The switch is powered only when a vital output representing a desired switch operation (throwing the switch to normal to reverse or vice versa) is called for over the radio link.

Bei einer Fernwirkanlage, die über Lichtwellenleiter (LWK, LWM) betrieben wird, soll erreicht werden, daß beim Ausfall der Anlage auf der Empfangsseite (KE, MS) eine bestimmte Schaltroutine zur Ausführung kommt. Solange die Fernwirkanlage ordnungsgerecht arbeitet,stellen sendeseitig (SK) ausgelöste zyklisch alternierende Signale ein empfangsseitiges Schaltglied (R) ein. Bleiben diese Signale aus oder wird ihre Übertragung bewußt unterdrückt, fällt das Schaltglied (R) ab und veranlaßt die Ausführung der Schaltroutine. Bei der Ausbildung der Fernwirkanlage als Lichtsignalsteuerung für Verkehrssignale beinhaltet die Schaltroutine die Anschaltung des Haltsignals (L3, L4) bei gleichzeitiger Abschaltung der Fahrtsignale (L1, L2) des jeweils betroffenen Lichtsignals.

In the interest of providing a capable and simultaneously particularly flexible system with regard to the realisation and usage possibilities thereof, the decentralised control device (20) is connected according to the invention by communications technology to the at least one additional decentralised control device (40, 41, 42) by means of at least one second communications link (80, 81, 82), and the system is designed to monitor the at least one second communications link (80, 81, 82) in regard to not exceeding the maximum delay time for security purposes.

An actuating and monitoring module, particularly for operating units, i.e. wayside equipment, of railway systems or the like, comprising: a communication line with the operating unit to be controlled for transmitting an actuating signal, and for receiving so-called feedback signals, which feedback signals are generated by an oscillatory circuit generating a signal at a predetermined frequency when the operating unit switches to one of the predetermined operating states, a specific frequency being uniquely associated to each operating state and the oscillatory circuit being formed by the wires of the communication line between the control actuator and the operating unit and by a separate capacitor for each operating state, whereas the operating unit has feedback switch means operated thereby upon transition from a first to a second of such operating states, so that the attainment of an operating condition automatically generates a feedback signal at the predetermined unique frequency, which is detected by detection means of the actuating and monitoring module, which include analyzers for checking the correctness of the frequency of the feedback signal, which generate a signal indicating that the operating unit has correctly switched to the corresponding operating state. The module of the invention further includes means for modulating the feedback signal according to a predetermined modulation protocol.

The invention concerns a secure multi-computer system in which only one of the computers (R1) has an output channel (ABG) through which data from the computer system are transmitted to a receiving terminal. The data transmitted include wanted data (N1) and test data (P2) which can be identified in a predetermined way from the wanted data. The transmitted wanted and test data come from different computers in the computer system. For instance, the wanted data may come from the computer which feeds the data into the transmission channel and the test data (P2) from another computer (R2). Since the computers in the computer system inform each other continuously about the data in their databuses, the outputting computer is always informed of the wanted and test data from the other computer. Suitable wiring ensures that both computers participate in providing the data transmitted.

A switch point management unit comprises a control and command logical unit (1) executing a control and command Software. The control and command unit (1) has two CPU (510, 610) each carrying out independently the control and command logic program and generating command signals (EN A, EN_B). The said signals being fed independently to one of two further independent processor units (11, 12) which receive each one independently the status signals generated by a control position module (4) on the switch machine and verify the said command signals with the status signals. The outputs of the two further processor units (11, 12) being fed to a voter (14) for comparison and generation of an activation signal (VT) which is fed to a vital AND module (5) enabling the driving of the switch machine according to the command signals. The vital AND module (5) driving the switch machine when the two command signals generated by the two CPU (510, 610) of the control and command logical unit (1) and when the activation signal (VT) of the voter (14) are present at the same time at the vital AND (5) inputs. A feedback line of the vital AND (5) output to the command and control logic unit (1) being present for carrying out an inherently fail safe operation of the voting process. The control signals describing the switch point machine position status are generated by a diode (41) which is connected in series to the control line when the control contact are closed. Each control signal line has a dedicated diode (41) operating on a control signal with a dedicated frequency a band pass filter (40) being connected in series to the diode (41).
