2. Short history of the INDUSI system
Automatic Train Protection System (ATPS) based upon inductive coupling

(INDUSI, Punktförmige Zugbeeinflussung – PZB) is introduced for the first time in
30thies of the 20th century. Current system consisted of central unit and two balisas as
we are offering is the best known, the safest and form technically point of view the most
convenient worldwide train protection system from 60thies of the 20th century. This
system is standard in big number of countries. It is consisted from track side and train
born equipment. Light (or mechanical) signalisation on the rail track is connected to the
track side INDUSI equipment. According to light signalisation, track magnets or track
balisas are activated in order to transfer information from traffic light status to the train
born INDUSI equipment. Information is transferred in one point so that is why the system
is punctual. According to the information from the track, speed, driver responses and
awareness, train born INDUSI central unit activates emergency braking. Because
locomotive magnet radiates energy (close EM field), it is also called an INDUSI antenna.
Emergency braking is forced to avoid possible accidents when driver does not obey stop
sign red light (STOP), speed limits or warnings and fails to respond.
3. INDUSI description
INDUSI system is consisted of two major parts:

x Track side equipment
x Train born equipment
3.1. Track side equipment
Track side INDUSI equipment includes track magnet for 500 Hz and the track magnet for
1000 and 2000 Hz. Those magnets are passive resonant circuits meaning they do not
need power supply. They are mounted on the right side of the movement direction.
Track magnet can be activated by the existing relay contact on the traffic light or traffic
light can be additionally equipped with auxiliary relay. Closed contact deactivates track
magnet. Open contact activates track magnet. Also on 1000/2000 Hz track magnet,

Figure 1. INDUSI track side equipment installation
For track side INDUSI system ALTPRO d.o.o. is manufacturing two types of track
magnets:
x Track magnet PM 500 track magnet with resonant frequency at 500 Hz, can
be set to active (open contacts) and not active state
(closed contacts)
x Track magnet PM 1020 track magnet with two resonant frequencies at 1000
and 2000 Hz, can be set to inactive state (both closed
contacts), 1000 Hz (one open and one closed contact)
or 2000 Hz (open both contacts)
3.2 Train born equipment
Train born antenna or locomotive magnet radiates three frequency signals of 500, 1000
and 2000 Hz continuously while operating. In the moment when locomotive magnet is
over track magnet (500, 1000 or 2000 Hz), inductive coupling cause current drop of that
particular resonant circuit while current in other two resonant circuits remains the same.
That current drop is sensed by the central ATPS unit and according to that responds with
certain action. Schematic of the INDUSI train born equipment is on the figure 2.
Figure 2. INDUSI train born equipment
As locomotive can operate in both directions, two locomotive magnets are installed, one
on each (right) side (of the moving direction) of the vehicle.
Major parts of the train born INDUSI system manufactured by ALTPRO d.o.o. are:
x RAS 8385 central TCS unit: includes logic devices, actuators, frequency
generators, influence sensors
x Locomotive magnet LLC 0512: with resonant frequencies of 500, 1000 and
2000 Hz
AUTOSTOP RAS 8385, Central ATPS unit, is connected to the pneumatic system trough
which it activates the brakes and stop the train. It is also connected to the incident
recorder so all actions and signalisations can be saved for future analysis and evaluated
after any kind of accident.
For checking driver awareness, Deadman Control system is added as one separate safety
system. Schematic of the train born installation is on figure 3.

4. RAS 8385 INDUSI ATPS system operation
Operation of the system is based upon transferring a signal from the track onto
the train using the principle of the inductance coupling. As there are three frequencies,
three different signals can be transferred (figure 4).
1000 Hz influence
1000 Hz is used for distant signal (green light fleshing or yellow light). After crossing
1000 Hz track magnet, driver has to push acknowledge button within 4 seconds. If driver
does not respond within 4 seconds, system will force emergency stoppage.
At the same time when influence 1000 Hz is detected, another timer is activated. If driver
has pushed the acknowledge button within 4 seconds, that timer will continue. After time
elapses, system will check velocity to confirm that everything is all right. If velocity
exceeds speed limit, system will force emergency stoppage.
Time and speed limit depends on running mode.
Green light All track magnets INACTIVE No influence on the brakes
Fleshing Green light Checks driver's awareness and speed

after deceleration. Activates
emergency brakes if driver does not
or 1000 Hz track magnet ACTIVE respond properly on the light signal
and if does not decrease speed below
Yellow light speed limit.
Red light STOP 2000 Hz track magnet ACTIVE Activates emergency brakes
Activates emergency brakes if current

(speed trap) - 500 Hz ACTIVE
speed is above the speed limit
Figure 4. signals on the track with correspondent track magnet activation
500 Hz influence
500 Hz influence is used on station entrance and is activated if main signal is red. When
crossed, system compares speed with speed limit and if speed is higher then speed limit,
it will force emergency stoppage.
2000 Hz influence
2000 Hz influence is used on main signal for red light. When crossed, system will force
emergency stoppage. If override button/switch is activated, system will not force
emergency stoppage but it will be recorded that the override button/switch has been
used.
5. Mode selection
Before starting, running mode for the train has to be selected. It can be selected
internally in the central AUTOSTOP unit, or can be selected externally. If selected
internally, externally selection does not have affect. It is possible to select one of three
possible running modes depending on the installed logic module inside the central unit of
RAS 8385. If RGG 2001 logic module installed, running modes 1, 2 and 3 can be selected.
If RGG 2002 logic module installed, running modes E, 1 and 2 can be selected. Labels E,
1, 2 and 3 refers:
E ICE
1 InterCity trains
2 local and regional trains
3 cargo trains
According running mode and train type, there are three groups of speed limit and time
checking values:
Max 500 Hz influence 1000 Hz influence

Table 1. Values according running mode selection
Figure 5. AUTOSTOP RAS 8385 braking curves
Each running mode has its own braking curve. That curve depends on train speed, max
load and percentage of braking. Braking curves for running modes 1, 2, and 3 is on figure
5.
6. Signalization and serving
In the driver’s cabin there are three light bulbs, buzzer, and three buttons for
serving the AUTOSTOP and AUTOSTOP state signalling. Diagram of the cabin
components is on figure 6.
x Two blue bulbs indicate running mode and pressure in the pneumatic system. First
blue bulb illuminates if running mode 2 has been selected and there is pressure
>1,9 bar in the pneumatic system.
x Second blue bulb illuminates if running mode 3 has been selected and there is
pressure >1,9 bar in the pneumatic system.
Figure 6. Cabin component diagram
x Both bulbs illuminates if running mode 1 has been selected and there is pressure
>1,9 bar in the pneumatic system
x Yellow bulb illuminates after 1000 Hz influence and will be ON while time check
elapsed. If 1000 Hz influence causes emergency stoppage for not obeying speed
limit, yellow bulb will remain ON until brakes are released.
If there has been forced emergency stoppage, buzzer (ALARM) will sound on while
emergency stoppage operation, air is released from the pneumatic system causing brake
activation. Loosing pressure will result with turning blue bulbs OFF (one or both
depending of running mode). After 6 seconds from the braking action, releasing the
brakes and repressuring the system is allowed. It can be done by pushing the RELEASE
button. That operation will seal the pneumatic system and it is possible then to put
pneumatic system under the pressure again.
That is a standard procedure every time emergency stoppage has been initiated.
If 1000 Hz influence has been detected, driver has to push ACKNOWLEDGE button within
4 second. If fails to do so, system forces emergency stoppage. If driver push
ACKNOWLEDGE button within 4 seconds from 1000 Hz detection, system will continue to
measure time according the running mode (table 1) and yellow bulb will illuminate.
If for some reason driver has a directive to go on RED signal (malfunction or track
problem), to avoid emergency stoppage, drive can push OVERRIDE button and cross the
2000 Hz. While OWERRIDE button/switch is activated, buzzer will sound alarm and that
action will be recorded in the incident recorder.
Beside that elements, in the cabin are speedometer for speed indication, foot and hand
switches for deadman control system. Block diagram of the connection in the between
deadman system, AUTOSTOP RAS 8385 ATPS, incident recorder, cabin and the
pneumatic system is on figure 7.

For registration is used KWR 6 incident recorder. Five digital values together with
speed and pressure are memorised and stored on a flash memory card. During operation,
system can be monitored by PC compatible computer.
8. Analogue part
As an essential part of the INDUSI system comes ANALOGUE PART. This part
consists of locomotive magnet (A and B), frequency generators (500, 1000 and 2000 Hz),
envelope detector (for each channel) and (depending on type and manufacturer of the
locomotive magnet) an optional tuning mechanism. As a unique product of this type,
ALTPRO is producing these modules for easy adaptation into the old and new INDUSI
systems. Block diagram is on the figure 8.
