Communication System for

Safety Management

“Le Shuttle“ connects France and England

through the Eurotunnel and is one of four

train services offered by operator Eurotunnel.

“Le Shuttle“ transports cars, buses and mo-

torbikes between Sangatte (Calais/Coquelles)

and Folkestone.

The vehicles are stowed in one- or two-

ﬂoored, closed train segments. The trip

itself takes 35 minutes and is thus the fastest

connection to the island. Each of the nine

trains used is about 800 m long, with two

locomotives pulling 28 cars per train.

The French company Mors, based near

Marseille, was one of the companies that

developed the second generation of data

communications systems for “Le Shuttle“.

This system collects, analyzes and processes

any safety data from the individual cars. An

MEN VMEbus communications controller

in single Eurocard format is the central com-

puter in the system.

Inspection Systems for

Maintenance Trains

A Swiss service provider uses the machines

from Matisa and others for levelling,

straightening and packing, grading and

compressing, laying sleepers or cleaning

gravel etc. An expert in the ﬁeld of machine-

aided maintenance of standard gauge lines

and metric gauges, the service provider has

even designed a special track measuring

device.

The appliance weighs about 12 kg, can be

disassembled and is used to measure

proﬁles, contact wires, ﬁxed points and

excess height. It reaches a measuring

distance of up to 10 meters.

The device is controlled by standard

VMEbus boards from MEN. The PowerPC

®

based computers in single Eurocard format

run under ELinOS embedded Linux. Several

Ethernet modules (PC-MIP

®

) and serial inter-

faces (M-Modules™) handle communication

between the machine and the driver’s cabin.

Another company in Switzerland uses

Inte

l®

based 3U CompactPCI

®

systems as

the computing core of its infotainment

systems. Depending on the requirements of

the operator, the system may control LED

or TFT displays, transmit TV, DVD or radio

programs in addition to displaying pictures,

support additional audio, or feature different

ﬁeldbusses or even wireless communication

via GSM or GPS.

Drive of Track-Laying

Machines

Matisa Matériel Industriel of Switzerland

develops and manufactures machines and

equipment for measurement of track geo-

metry, track laying and track maintenance.

Standard CompactPCI

®

components from

MEN are used to control and visualize the

functions of the drive of the track-laying

machinery that often weighs over 50 tons

and is more than 20 meters long. The Intel

®

based computers in single Eurocard format

run under Windows

®

NT.
