      Product Details
     
Autometers Alliance Ltd offers a top-of-the-line Vigilance Control Device (VCD) that supervises the alertness of the driving crew during train movement. This device can be installed in diesel electric and electric locomotives/EMUs as a stand alone unit
       
      Salient Features
     
  • Normal driving activities function like throttle, master controller, horn, sander, loco brake, train brake, dynamic brake, headlight etc. are taken as input signals for VCD operation
  • Improves vigilance, and provides warning and brake application signals in a predefined manner
  • Records data of penalty brake application event, VCD By pass, VCD suppression in a non-volatile memory for management reviews, if required
  • Windows-based data extraction and analysis software for report generation
  • User friendly data analysis software allows to configure the unit with predefined timing cycle parameters

Applications

  • Safety of train in case of absence of driving crew
  • To create alertness in driving crew for safe train movement
  • Data analysis for management review in case of train derailment/accident
