MSDAC System (AzLM)
AzLM: Multi Section Digital Axle Counter

A vital axle counter equipment for multiple track sections containing
2-out-of-2 microcontrollers
Consists of Double Rail Contacts (mounted on rail) and Electronic Unit (in
trackside housing) to provide fail-safe train detection information over fault
tolerant communication link
Axle Counter Evaluator (ACE) evaluates the data from Electronic Units and
determines whether a track section is clear/occupied/disturbed
USB and Ethernet diagnostic interfaces provide facility to interrogate the
system and determine its status
Conforming to CENELEC SIL 4
