1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 SCOPE

The field of application of this document is the C301: Shah – Habshan – Ruwais Railway Project.
All personnel involved in maintenance and/or installation of the IXL subsystem must be trained.
To be able to understand the alarms and logs it is necessary to gain deeper knowledge of the system and it is
recommended to study the system functional specification

1.2 PURPOSE
This document describes the user interface the D&M Desk part of IXL subsystem. The purpose of this document
is to list and detail all the functions that the D&M desk shall implement to satisfy C301 Shah-Habshan-Ruwais
contractual requirements.

2. SYSTEM INTRODUCTION
The D&M IXL HMI allows alarm management of IXL sub-system and allows to send maintenance commands to
the IXL as defined in [FRS_IXL].

Figure 2-1

In C301: Shah – Habshan – Ruwais Railway Project there are two D&M HMI, one for each IXL.
The D&M IXL HMI has a Windows-like look & feel and is fully operational with standard keyboard and mouse
The D&M IXL HMI shows in graphical format all information gathered from the field as received by IXL in an area
called (Display station)

All monitored Sites and Plants can be accessed through the viewing of multiple graphics pages called ‘mimics’.
(The term ‘mimic’ indicates a screen layout which is a set of graphic symbols used to represent and describe
equipment and device status)
Typically a mimic is composed of:
1. animated or static symbols, representing the plant’s equipment (e.g. Track Sections, Points, Marker
Boards) or interactive graphic objects (e.g. button);
2. animated or static text.
Every change of the field status or every new alarm raised is promptly notified to the operators by means of the
available views and pages of the system.

3. D&M IXL OVERVIEW DESCRIPTION


3.1.1 General information
The diagnostic and Maintenance subsystem is used to download the logs from ARTs and allows to send
Maintenance commands to the IXL.
The diagnostic and Maintenance desk (D&M) acquires the Equipment and System diagnostic data from the
Diagnostic and Maintenance server (DGM).
The D&M makes it graphically possible to:
• display the status of the trackside subsystems
• display the diagnostics.
The maintenance operator terminal is a workstation composed of PC, LCD monitor, keyboard and mouse.
Maintenance operator terminals are locally connected to the related system or used in remote via network links.
Microsoft Windows XP SP3 is installed as operating system on the D&M operator terminal.
The D&M operator terminal main application starts when launching the program “Art Workstation Monitor”.
All application operations are in line with the concept of Microsoft Windows.

That mainly includes the following command procedures:

• selection of elements and functions is done by mouse click with the left mouse button
• selection of a function menu depending on the context is done by mouse click on the requested element
with the right mouse button.

3.1.2 D&M Operator Terminal Applications


Maintenance operator terminal applications are connected to the subsystems DGM1, DGM2, ART1 and ART 2 of
the WSP cabinet via network receiving diagnostic and operating data.

For system maintenance the application programs here below are required and described in the following:

• Maintenance Commands
• Logging application
• Alarm list

The alarm list and the Maintenance commands application are started when launching the main application “ART
Workstation Monitor”.
The logging application can be started and closed by the operator at any time.

5. COMMAND BUTTON (AREA 2)


The Maintainer can perform two action using the commands present in area 2:

• Change the station showed in the Display


• Set a Reminder on Station and Line Track Section and Point

Figure 5-1

5.1.1.1 Change station


With the use of button “Change Station” the Maintainer can change the visualization on the station display, in
fact the D&M interface provide the possibility to have a specific view of each station present in the line.
The sequence of actions that the Maintainer has to do to change the visualization are the following:
Acting on the button the Maintainer will open a window that allows to select the station to be shown

Figure 5-2
Once that the Maintainer choose the station, the button “Activation” become active

In the alarm list application all incoming messages are visualized chronologically in decreasing order, a new
incoming message is inserted on top of the list.

The current display of the list can be moved by scroll bars.

Figure 7-1shows a typical layout of the alarm list when messages are present.

Each message is displayed on its own row. The rows are divided into the following columns:

• “Start Time” (Date / Time of event): date and time of the occurrence of the message
• “Device Type”: device which has generated the alarm
• ”Device”: specific element of the device
• “Alarm”: detailed description of the alarm message.

Each message is displayed with a color according to its editing state (see).Table 7-1

colour Editing state

red New message

yellow Acknowledge message by operator, with alarm active still

green Resolved alarm message

On the left in the window of alarm list, there is the system tree arraying all subsystems according to their
affiliation. Each branch is preceded by a colored triangle indicating the worst severity of all sub-ordered branches.

The system tree permits to restrict the number of visualized messages in the alarm list to those of single
subsystems.

The selection of the system to be visualized is achieved by left click on the requested element in the system tree.
It is possible to restrict the filtering furthermore by selecting a sub-layer. The filter function is disabled when
selecting the top layer “

Existing problems are displayed in the alarm list as long as the problem is present or until the operator has
acknowledged a resolved problem. For this purpose the operator has the possibility to acknowledge messages
indicating that the problem is dealt with.

Purpose for acknowledgement is a better overview.
New problems are distinguishable from already existing ones.
When acknowledging a message, the background color changes from “red” to “yellow”.
Resolved problems in “green” are deleted from the list by acknowledgement.

Messages can be acknowledged globally or by single selection:

8. TAN (AREA 5)
The Tan is a virtual keyboard that comes into action whenever the operator must send a command to the IXL.
The operator, check on the safe echo, represented on Signaling Detail screen, the commands that should be sent
to IXL.
If the command is correct, the maintainer must insert in the TAN the correct code, provided by TMR, to complete
the procedure of command to IXL
The TAN interface is composed of two elements:
1. TAN display;
2. TAN keypad.

8.1.1.1 TAN Procedure


TAN procedure is used by the maintainer in order to confirm a command.
The operator in order to carry out the TAN procedure is supported by:
1. A window showing the code in a safe way
2. A dialogue window in order to insert a code
3. A commercial mouse used in order to digit the code.
The step sequence of the “TAN procedure” is:
1. The maintainer inserts the command;
2. The safety nucleus generates the TAN code (i.e. a number of 4 digit);
3. The safety nucleus sends to the TAN interface the code and the echo of the command

Figure 8-3

4. The maintainer checks the command in the echo and types the code through the keypad;
5. The Safety nucleus compares the TAN code coming from the maintainer and the TAN code generated in
step 2. If the comparison is successful the safety nucleus executes the command.
The maintainer need to input, within a specified timer, represented by the shortening of the blue vertical bar, the
numeric sequence using the mouse and the numeric pad that will be shown on screen in his area. The
sequences will be compared and if they match the command is accepted, otherwise refused. The TAN procedure
guarantees the command is not accidentally generated.
If the “TAN code” is not typed within the specified timer, the command aborts. Then, the command shall be
inserted again by the maintainer and follows successfully all the step foreseen by the TAN procedure in order to
be effective.
If the “TAN code” typed by RBC operator is wrong and the specified timer has not expired yet, the correct code
displayed in the TAN display becomes "violet-background" and maintainer is allowed to type the code again until
the timer expires.
The dialogue window, in order to make up the TAN code, is made of 5 elements:
1. Numeric keypad used by maintainer in order to insert the transaction number
2. A window showing the transaction number inserted by maintainer (Eco code area)
3. Send button
