Within the framework of the concluded agreement with the Joint Stock Company
«Ukrainian Railways» company «LLC« Railway Automation »
started providing post-warranty escort services and
administering software software hardware
IPC – EM complex with integrated centralized
ABTC-EM autoblocking manufactured by OJSC Radio Aviation
line items, servers, automated workstations (hardware
and software) at Poltava – South –
Krasnograd regional branch “Southern Railway”.
This equipment was commissioned in 2012 and
requires post-warranty technical support by the manufacturer or
authorized manufacturer by the company.
According to the results of the work, the specialists of the customer will be
measures and recommendations for improving work
equipment.
Similar agreements for the maintenance of MOC devices are becoming
the usual practice of LLC “Railway Automation”. Thanks to these
The specialists of the company gain valuable life-cycle experience
IPC systems and their operation characteristics. This experience
used to improve diagnostic methods and principles
maintenance to further reduce operational
costs.
We consider it appropriate to note the following.
The current picture in the field of automation and
of telecommunications of JSC “Ukrzaliznytsia” is as follows:
– the minimum number of microprocessor rail systems
automation machines with the inability to fully exploit them;
– shortage and outflow of qualified personnel;
– Decrease in skills and technical literacy
operating personnel.
Therefore, even in spite of organization and execution
post-warranty support, during development and implementation
modern MOC systems should be put first
full autonomy of the railway automation facility from the developer
systems, designer, equipment manufacturer and operator
organization, similar to the order of implementation and operation
relay systems in use today.
The result of the implementation of any project should be
a versatile tool in the hands of the customer that allows it
on your own (or with free competition,
any professional contractor) to operate, maintain,
develop and upgrade microprocessor systems at all stages
life cycle.
Application on microprocessor rail transport
systems of railway automatics and telemechanics (CJSC) with open
architecture according to the principles of automatic control system, which are adapted to the technology
railway operations, allows the railways to independently
to serve systems in accordance with principles and order
maintenance of existing relay systems. To do this, within
the existing state of the alarm and communications staff
it is enough to form your own operational unit.
Creating Application Software (PPE) with
using the languages of IEC standard 61131-3 allows
operate railway automation and telemechanics systems
are developed by our company, staff of service professionals
railway industry. When commissioning the system, the customer
receives a complete package of technical documentation, including the PPP, which
is displayed in accessible graphic form and repeats the classic
relay circuits. Printed text of the PPP allows you to save
source application software and make changes
in accordance with the railway application procedure in force
changes to the relay circuit of the SSB.
With similar documents, the customer can form his own
the actual operating unit, to train the staff in the created
training centers in conjunction with higher specialized training
facilities, and self-service systems. With,
to serve fully, not just changing the modules that came out of
while developing the facility, upgrading technical and software
software.
Software engineers are not required to make changes to the software. WITH
This work will be able to cope with the industry with high rail
education, training or advanced training at
base of the Ukrainian State University of Railway Transport
or at the training centers of LLC “Railway Automation”. Besides
such specialists have the opportunity to consolidate their knowledge
directly at the facility during commissioning
works. These professionals are granted the right to make changes to the PPP
similarly to the current operating order of relay systems (introduction
changes to the service instance, distance, walkthrough).
To protect against
unauthorized modification of the operating personnel’s PPP
appropriate levels of access are provided:
– reviewing and making changes;
– viewing;
– no viewing.
List of persons entitled to make changes to the PPP,
determined by the distance management and approved by the management
alarm and communication services. This is the principle that makes the customer
completely independent of the developer, applies to all varieties
systems of railway automatics and telemechanics: stationary, distillation,
bitter centralization, intersection signaling, DC, DC, etc.
This approach allows:
– maintain the classic principles of maintenance during operation
modern microprocessor systems of railway automatics and
telemechanics;
– reduce operating costs;
– save money and direct them to the modernization of morally and
physically worn technical equipment.
