Micro Processor Based Data Logger The status of various Railway Signal Control and interlocking relays are essentially to be logged in order to verify, diagnose its operation, maintenance and faults. Data logger logs the change of status of every relay connected to it. Logged data transmitted upon to the central place to generate various exceptions, reports and other information by application software. Salient Features:

Relay Interlocking Supervisory System A Supervisory system on Interlocking failures and Wrong Operations. System Architecture: System will be connected to a Data Acquisition device 'Data-logger’ that records the statuses of Interlocked Relays. System gets the relays status from Data Logger and process the information with the help of Static and Dynamic logics to conclude the occurred operation is Safe , wrong operation or failure, If any wrong operation or Failure occurs that will be alerted to the user located at Control Panel Capabilities: The system is capable of monitoring



Signaling Operations



Point Operations



Operations on Control Panel



Permitted Train Movements
