INFO-pass Components

• INFO-pass is based on a totally digital architecture. The system is distributed over an Ethernet backbone running throughout the whole train. All available information is digitally exchanged between cars 
• This architecture has a high degree of scalability in system design and is maintenance friendly throughout its whole useful lifecycle 
• The passenger information unit (PI unit) is installed on one of the cars and connected to the Ethernet, offering the following performance features:
  • Total control over panels and monitors installed on the train
  • Train tracking functions by GPS, odometer and other balises like RFIP
  • Wireless communication with the desktop app for remote downloading of configurations and contents.
  • Integration with the train’s PA system to initiate automatic announcements, a text-to-speech annunciator system and prerecorded audios. 
• The digital video server (DVS) plays video contents over the monitors. 
• Both driver cabs are fitted with HMIs to control and monitor system performance.
