Tucker Interlocking Commissioning Isis team members recently participated in the commissioning of Tucker Interlocking on Bi-State Metro. Isis activities included support for their design and programming and general support as the commissioning moved forward. Testing during the commissioning was the responsibility of Metro staff supported by SECA engineering. 2007 C&S AREMA and RSSI Members of the Isis team attended the 2007 C&S AREMA presentations May 23rd in Calgary Alberta. The papers presented were extremely interesting and the Q&A sessions following each presentation provided a great deal of information. The RSSI show was also a terrific gathering. It was great to be able to see all the suppliers and their goods in a single venue. It was also great to see all our old friends and to make new ones. We're looking forward to next year in Grapevine! Cleveland RTA Moreland Pocket Track Isis will be serving as the owner's engineer for the Moreland Pocket Track project. Services will consist of the design of the Moreland Pocket Track installation, preparation of technical specifications and bid documents, and customer support through the bid and construction phases of the project. In addition, Isis will prepare a critical needs study for the RTA Blue and Green Lines to assess requirements for future improvements. Electrologixs Installation Isis engineers participated in the commissioning of two Electrologixs chassis' to replace aerial cable on a lift span bridge for the L&I railroad in Louisville, Kentucky. The application utilized a spread spectrum remote link and pc office (provided by Global Rail Systems). Isis' responsibilities for the project included specification of equipment, design of circuits, including interface with existing bridge circuits, programming of the Electrologixs, programming of the spread spectrum radios, and responsibility for the commissioning. GCP 4000 Programming Class Isis engineers Rob Burkhardt and John Spellman recently attended a class sponsored by the Union Pacific to learn to program the GCP-4000. The GCP-4000 was designed to allow customers to 'customize' applications via programming. In addition, much of the set up that used to be required in the field can be eliminated through programming during the design phase of the crossing. Latest GETSGS Logicstation Upgrade Isis will be using the latest version of GETGS' Logicstation to program Electrologix vital controllers for a signaling project in Louisville for the Louisville and Indiana Railroad. The latest version of Logicstation allows the programming of VHLC, EC5 and XP4 as well as Electrologix. |
