Passenger address system along with passenger information system and LED destination board shall be integrated for providing all important information in audio and visual form to the passengers.The Microprocessor Controller for Roof Mounted AC Package Unit for LHB Coaches and Double Decker Coaches is a Microcontroller based unit to control the sub-devices of the RMPU automatically according to the Heating, Ventilation and Air-Conditioning (HVAC) algorithm, which provides comfort journey experience to the AC coach passengers of the Indian Railways.
The Microprocessor Controller consists of one Control Unit and one Display Unit. Control Unit controls the sub devices of two RMPUs and also senses the different temperatures like Return-Air temperature, Fresh-Air temperature, Supply-Air temperature and Humidity of the Return-Air etc. by means of various sensors fitted in the RMPU Units.
It also continuously monitors the status of the RMPU’s sub-units, all temperature sensors, hygrostats, safety devices, pressure sensors, power supply and stores the log of events and list of failures using “Event Recording System” and “Fault Storage System” respectively. The Events & Faults stored in the memory can be downloaded through USB port by the inserting the USB drive. The health (OK/Not OK) status of the devices additionally indicated by the glowing LEDs provided on the top of the Control Unit.
Display Unit as a part of the Microprocessor Controller consists the graphical LCD and the Keys. It is used to display Date, Time, Coach No., RMPU No. and Make, Status of the RMPU’s sub-devices, various temperature sets (pre-defined) etc., It is possible to change the defaults settings of the above mentioned parameters through the keys provided on the Display Unit. The messages displayed on the Display Unit are under the control of Control Unit.
The communication between the Control Unit and Display Unit should happen through RS-232 port. RS-485 Communication Port provided for GSM/GPRS Module connectivity, this provision felicitates to centralize the system as a future requirement.
The system equipped with GPS technology for activating location based audio visual information and features of the system like speed, location of the coach and calculating kilometer run by the coach on per day/month/year basis.
This system cover the general functional design requirements of such system for Indian Railway coaches. System supports key features and technology based on internet services through Quad band GSM/GPRS or HSDPA/HSUPA modem and through Wi-Fi connectivity to the base station for remote accessibility of the system and monitoring of important parameters.
The Display Unit used to display the date, time, seven temperature settings and various parameters of the RMPUs. There is provision to set/configure the date, time, RMPU number & make and selection of seven set temperature point etc., through keypad provided on Display Unit.
Event Recording
Sampling of event recording will be done once in every 2 minutes and the past 200 hrs. of event log data will be available and it can be downloaded through USB drive via USB port.
Fault Storage
The Control Unit stores the various tripping and faults of the RMPU and maintains past 2000 memory backup it can be downloaded through USB drive via USB port.
