1.1 Overview
MEI 633 is an Electronic Interlocking system with interface to the points,
signals, track circuits, axle counters, level crossing gates, ground frames,
block instruments for block working with adjacent stations and crank handles
for manual operation of points. It has the provision to interface with an
external data logger through serial link to log events.
MEI 633 is a self-contained independent system, which can be used
standalone to control the train movement in the Yard. The system is
implemented as multi-processor distributed system, with the system
functionality being apportioned to various sub-systems. Centralized
Interlocking computation with distributed I/Os is over-the-top feature of
MEI 633. Thus it can be installed as a centralized system or a distributed
system.
