Abstract

See full text

A numerical vital relay driver serving as an independent arbiter of vital railway (control) system operation constituting a checkword translator for receiving system checkwords from a system processor in the form of 'N' bit NISAL parameters and for implementing a hardware algorithm utilizing the checkwords. It also consists of variable waveform data tables, including means for translating the data in the tables into a periodic signal, wherein it is insured that only if the checkwords are present and correct within a specific check period and the operation of the hardware algorithm is correct, will the desired periodic signal be produced.
