The Azonik Event Recorder (ER) module, acting as the black box for the Train Control and Management System (TCMS), is responsible for the continuous monitoring and recording of all analog and digital signals within the rail fleet. Featuring an industrial design and a crash-proof structure, and compliant with the stringent EN50155 railway standards, this module ensures operational security and safety in urban trains and metro systems.
In advanced Train Control and Management Systems (TCMS), the Event Recorder (ER) module plays a vital and irreplaceable role. Known as a core component of train management system racks, this module is responsible for the continuous reception, monitoring, and archiving of all internal train signals. Utilizing crash-proof storage technology, this module ensures that even in critical situations and accidents, vital data remains in secure memory for post-incident analysis. Therefore, the Azonik ER module acts precisely as the black box of the rail transport fleet.
Key Roles in Status Monitoring and Crisis Management
Fault Diagnosis and Predictive Monitoring: These data serve as the primary reference for detecting failures in various train subsystems, enabling precise analysis of component performance.
Accident Reconstruction: In the event of abnormal conditions or accidents, the information archived in the ER module provides the main source for experts to accurately reconstruct events prior to the incident and identify root causes.
The Azonik ER module is designed with a focus on four principles: Security, Safety, Modularity, and Configurability.
High Accuracy in Recording Analog and Digital Signals
Analog Signals: Precise recording of parameters such as train speed, brake air pressure, motor current, and other operational variables.
Digital Signals: Monitoring of movement direction, emergency brake commands, speed limitations, and control instructions.
Industrial, Modular, and Stable Design
Environmental Resistance: In accordance with the EN50155 standard, this module has a wide operating range in terms of railway voltage and temperature and is built for non-stop operation in industrial environments.
Easy Communication and Analysis: Data extraction is facilitated via USB and Ethernet ports. Additionally, a dedicated Windows-based software is provided with this module, making the analysis, comparison, and plotting of recorded data charts across different time intervals very simple.
