A personal computer with additional equipment allows access to any device connected to the MICAS Vehicle Bus for checking functionality, troubleshooting, and software updates without hardware interference.

Modules (in a standard size) for subracks containing processors, input/output boards, bus couplers, and power supplies.

Subracks are customized in width based on project needs; they house multiple components, and are often shielded to prevent electromagnetic interference.

Commonly used connectors (DB9, DB15, DB25) that adhere to the DIN standard for connecting process signals to modules.

A system that analyzes incoming messages, uses rules (programmed in Action Diagnostic Language (ADL)), and historical data to give a conclusion or suggestion based on them and results in a message to the driver.

The diagnostic computer only provides diagnostic information and does not control vehicle functions, eliminating redundancy needs for safety-critical systems.

The vehicle control scheme (WAP5/WAG9 locomotive) combines MICAS-S2 software with conventional hardware to manage desired control functions.

The pantograph can be raised at any speed, ensuring flexibility in operation.

The system automatically lowers the pantograph in emergency situations by de-energizing the auxiliary contactor, ensuring safety.

The pantograph does not automatically lower if the catenary voltage exceeds the upper limit.

Each pantograph has a pressure switch to monitor its air pressure, ensuring proper operation and safety.

The VCB (Vacuum Circuit Breaker) is disabled if the pantograph air pressure is not satisfactory. It's re-enabled once pressure is adequate, safeguarding the system.

If the pantograph's air pressure is low, a priority 1 fault message is displayed and the VCB is opened.

When the HBB2 system is isolated, only pantograph 2 is monitored, ensuring safe operation even with limited functionality.

After the driver initiates the pantograph raising, a confirmation message is displayed on the diagnostic panel.

When both pan up and down signals are active, the 'pan down' signal takes precedence and controls the pan.

This function monitors the selected pan to ensure it's operating correctly according to pre-defined parameters.

In this mode, the pan doesn't move physically but sends a signal to mimic the presence of catenary voltage.

A special signal used to simulate catenary voltage in Simulation Mode.

The master locomotive generates the pan up/down signals in multiple loco operation.

The slave loco receives the pan up/down wishes from the master loco over the Trainbus.

A system that determines which pans will be raised based on the 'Pan selection' switches and locomotive configuration.

A parameter that controls which pans are raised when both 'Pan selection' switches are in 'AUTO' position.

In trailing mode, the master loco only generates pan up/down requests, and other functions are controlled by the slave loco.

A contactor on the master loco controlled by the slave loco's FG31, which disables the pan in trailing mode.

This signal indicates that the pressure switch for pan 1 is activated, which suggests that the pan might be in use or ready to be used.

This bit signal indicates the driver's demand to turn off the vacuum contact breaker (VCB). This action could be necessary for maintenance or in case of a fault.

This signal represents the driver's intention to raise the pan. The system will respond to this request based on different factors, like pressure and available power.

This signal represents the driver's intention to lower the pan. It's a command that the system will process based on various factors.

This signal transmits the command to raise pan 1. This command is triggered from a different system or device.

The process of choosing which pan to raise, either manually or through the software.

The system continuously checks if the pressure switches are open or closed to determine if a pan is actually raised.

If a pan is raised and both pressure switches stay open for more than 2 seconds, a fault is triggered.

If the HBB2 fails, it will be isolated, the driver needs to change cabs and the pan will be raised from a different control system.

If the STB2 fails, the pan can still be raised manually using the HBB2.

The system ensures that the selected pan is raised consistently across both the master and slave locomotives, even during faults.

If the slave locomotive shuts down, the pan on the master locomotive will remain raised.

If the slave locomotive shuts down during trailing mode, the pan will be lowered on the slave, but the master will need a new command to raise the pan again.

If the slave locomotive shuts down, the driver's wish to raise the pan on the master locomotive is reset.

The pan wish self-hold logic allows the pan to remain raised even if the command is removed temporarily.

The MICAS-S2 control system manages all vehicle operations, monitoring, and maintenance tasks. Its structure and operation provide significant benefits for both vehicle manufacturers and users.

A standardized network (IEC TC9 WG22) that allows data exchange between different vehicles and subsystems within a train.

A dedicated network within a single vehicle connecting various electronic modules for communication and data exchange.

Additional data transfer systems in MICAS-S2, offering flexible options for communication depending on the application.

MICAS-S2 devices can monitor their own health and report any issues, improving reliability and maintenance.

The ability of the system to continue operating even if certain parts fail, enhancing safety and reliability.

Simplified tools for configuration and programming of MICAS-S2 installations, making management more efficient.

A system where control functions are divided among various components instead of relying on a single centralized unit. This allows for flexibility and redundancy.

Codes generated by the system to identify malfunctions or errors. They are sent to the diagnostic computer for analysis.

A software component that analyzes diagnostic messages, applies predefined rules, and provides conclusions or suggestions to the driver or maintenance staff.

A programming language used to define specific functions for diagnostic messages. The programmer can choose which events trigger these messages.

A network that connects devices located outside the main control system, allowing for data transmission over longer distances.

High-speed cables used for data transmission in the remote bus. They offer advantages like high bandwidth and resistance to interference.

Secure and reliable connectors used for fiber cables, ensuring proper connectivity and data transmission.

Raising the pantograph in cooling mode is not possible due to the normally open contacts of electronics 412.LJ and 412.QG. These contacts are open in cooling mode and closed in driving mode.

When the driver raises the pantograph from Cab 1, the feed to the EP valve 130/2 is made through a series of components including contact 130.1, safety relay control electronics (open in driving mode and closed in cooling mode), and blocking diode 123/2.

When the driver raises the pantograph from Cab 2, a similar electrical path is established to reach the EP valve 130/1, involving components like contact 130.1, safety relay control electronics, and blocking diode 123/2.

The switch (129.1) has three positions: 'I' for Cab 1, 'II' for Cab 2, and 'AUTO' for automatic selection. In AUTO mode, the pantograph on the opposite side of the activated cab will be raised.

When the pantograph selector switch is in AUTO mode, the MCE (Microprocessor Control Electronics) selects the pantograph, otherwise the rotary switch position determines the selected pantograph.

A schematic diagram (Fig. 7.3) illustrates the electrical connections and components involved in the pantograph control circuit.

The software specification details the functionalities of the pantograph control circuit, including the behavior of the rotary switch and the selection logic.

The logic determines which pantograph is raised, based on the position of the rotary switch (I, II, AUTO) and the active cab. It also considers the PanSelecMM parameter for automated selection.

In multiple locomotive operation, the master loco controls the pantograph while the slave loco receives the commands through the Trainbus. In trailing mode, the master loco only sends pan up/down requests, and other functions are controlled by the slave loco.

FG 31 is the design designation for the Pantograph Control system in the IR WAP5/WAG9 locomotive.

This refers to the system's ability to receive and process requests to raise or lower the pantograph from the driver.

In this mode, the pantograph doesn't physically move but sends a signal to mimic catenary voltage, allowing testing without actual operation.

This describes how the pantograph control system operates when there are multiple locomotives in a train, coordinating actions between the locomotives.

The system determines which pantograph will be raised based on the driver's selection and the configuration of the train.

The pantograph can be controlled by either the driver (using the switch) or the system (in cooling mode) to raise and lower the pan.

When the driver wants to raise the pantograph, they push the switch to the 'UP' position. This energizes a contactor which in turn transmits the command to the control system.

First, the auxiliary compressor provides the necessary air pressure to lift the pantograph. Second, the contactor raises the pantograph above the unoccupied cab.

The driver can lower the pantograph at any time, preventing damage to the locomotive.

In cooling mode, the system automatically raises the pantograph above the unoccupied cab to cool the locomotive.

The auxiliary contactor relays the driver's command to the control system in driving mode, but directly raises the pantograph in cooling mode.

The auxiliary compressor is responsible for building up enough air pressure to lift the heavy pantograph.

In driving mode, the contactor transmits the driver's command to the CEL. In cooling mode, the contactor directly raises the pantograph.

The driver can lower the pantograph by pushing the switch to the 'DOWN' position. This triggers the pantograph to lower, ensuring safety.

The switch has three positions: 'UP' to raise the pan, 'O' for the neutral position, and 'DN' to lower the pan.
