TH-LRC/LO-VFS Options
Operator vigilance device
The operator vigilance device
can be selected via the transmitter software. It is an equivalent to
the vigilance control system installed on the locomotive.
Unless
the operator does not carry out actions on the transmitter at specific
intervals of time (max. 30 seconds plus 7 seconds warning time) it is
assumed that the operator is no longer controlling the locomotive with
the necessary attention. In this case, the locomotive is brought to an
immediate standstill by a rapid braking.
External transmitter antenna
External antennas can be required when the portable transmitter is operated at a fixed place, e.g. inside a control room of a loading station.
The transmitter can be designed in a way that the receiving signal is automatically switched from internal to external antenna when the transmitter is put in the cradle for the fixed operation.
