Update (Boot) Mode GUI (Recommended Method)
The Update (Boot) Mode GUI is the recommended
method for updating software on the VPM-3. Executive
Software, Boot Software, PTC Config Files and PTC
Mapping Files can all be updated from the Update (Boot)
Mode GUI. For directions in using the Update (Boot)
Mode GUI, please see the Update (Boot) Mode Web GUI
instructions below.
Web GUI
1.
2.
3.
Connect to Web GUI diagnostic interface
5.
Connect to VPM3 with RJ45 cable (Crossover or Straight)
Open 'Local Area Network Properties',
Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click 'Properties'. Enter IP address of
192.168.1.100 and a SubNet Mask of 255.255.255.0 if using default ELX
port address.
Open a Browser and Enter 192.168.1.12 for Port 2 or 192.168.0.11 for Port

4.
Executive Software Update using Update (Boot) Mode
GUI
1.
Prior to uploading the new VPM-3 Executive
Software, ensure the values for all configurable
parameters are available from the site documentation
or have been recorded from the values shown on the
CDU or Web GUI.
2.
Place the VPM-3 in Update (Boot) Mode as follows:
a. Turn off the power switch on the
ElectroLogIXS/EC5
b. Press and hold the PROG button on the
VPM-3
c. Turn on the power switch on the
ElectroLogIXS/EC5
d. Release the PROG button
3.
Connect the computer Ethernet RJ45 port to one of
the VPM-3 Ethernet RJ45 ports, using an Ethernet
cable.
Note:
4.
The default VPM-3 IP addresses are
192.168.0.11 for the ENET1 (upper) RJ45
port and 192.168.1.12 for the ENET2
(lower) RJ45 port. These default IP address
values are the typical values used in Update
(Boot) Mode. Changing the
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 IP addresses from the
CDU or Web GUI during normal operation
does not change the IP addresses used in
Update Mode. If values other than the
default IP address values must be set / used
in Update (Boot) mode, they may be
changed using the Update Mode command
line. However, the IP address used in
Update (Boot) mode is not visible on the
CDU, so use of the default values whenever
possible is recommended.
Using a Web Browser, navigate to the IP address of the
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 unit.

Introduction
Chapter 1 – Introduction
Introduction
This manual contains information describing the components of an ElectroLogIXS VLC and EC5 system.
Included in this manual are introduction (including theory of operation), installation, module description,
and specification information for the ElectroLogIXS/EC5. For information regarding system software setup,
refer to Chapter 5 - CDU Program or Volume Two, Chapter 6 - Web Graphical User Interface. The ElectroLogIXS
XP4 used for railroad crossing applications is covered in its own manual part number 100323-010.
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 General Description
The ElectroLogIXS/EC5 product family is compatible with EC4 (Electro Code 4), and Electro Code 4-Plus
train control systems. The ElectroLogIXS/EC5 is modular in design and can be configured to support a
wide range of applications. Capabilities of the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 include: ground fault detection, train
detection, broken rail detection, light out protection, approach lighting control, AC (Alternating Current)
power off detection, cab signal output control, vital two-wire inputs for track switch controller protection,
and HR relay drives for release of electric locked switches.
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 at each end of a control block send and receive coded pulses through the tracks. DC
track circuits are used to inject and extract coded pulses on and off the tracks. Using the tracks as
conductors, makes it possible to detect trains (tracks shunted), provide broken rail protection, and eliminate
the need for external line wires. The coded pulses are used to establish a hand shaking protocol between
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 and allow synchronization between ElectroLogIXS/EC5 systems to alternately send
and receive data in both directions. Both hardware protection and software detection schemes are employed
to ensure fail-safe communications and system signaling. Adjacent control blocks are powered with reverse
polarity current, to prevent code detection from an adjacent block. Synchronizing and decoding coded
pulses, provides the vital information required to operate the system signal. The ElectroLogIXS/EC5
determines train presence by detecting the absence of track codes (tracks shunted), and maintains space
between trains so that adequate stopping distance is ensured and conflicting traffic routes are positively
avoided.
Train control is achieved primarily through sequential control and illumination of track-side aspects.
Positive train control can be achieved by adding cab signal capability to the system, or a messaging
interface that complies with the Interoperable Train Control (ITC) Wayside Interface Unit (WIU)
Requirements. Inputs to the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 include coded signals from track circuits, inputs from
relay contacts or other solid-state devices with digital outputs. The inputs are read in a fail-safe manner,
and are processed by multiple microprocessors in a vital manner to provide fail-safe control outputs. The
outputs consist of track codes, lamp driver signals, cab signal enables, and vital DC device drive voltages.
Ethernet ports and serial I/O ports allow the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 to communicate with other Positive
Train Control ITC compliant nodes, ElectroLogIXS, EC5, or VHLC systems.
The ElectroLogIXS/EC5 has a built in recorder that logs time-stamped vital and non-vital events as well as
state changes and failures. All recorded events are user printable both track-side and in the office. A set of
resident diagnostic programs provide the tools necessary to perform system trouble analysis and repair. The
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 has provisions for expansion to add radio signaling capabilities, and to operate
remotely via a serial data port and either of two Ethernet ports.
The ElectroLogIXS/EC5 consists of a chassis, motherboard, plug in modules, a CDU-1 (Control Display
Unit) and Personality modules with terminal blocks for hard wiring the system to external relays, hazard
detectors, and signal aspects. All modules have front panel indicators that display module health status, and
function indicators for monitoring active I/O signals. Parameter setup and modification can be performed
via the VPM-3 Web Graphical User Interface (Web GUI) or via the CDU-1. The Web GUI is operated by a
separate computer / PDA device running an Internet Explorer (or compatible) web browser.

ElectroLogIXS VLC and EC5
Theory of Operation
The Electro Code is a DC track circuit coded at each end to control block signals. It is similar to a coded
relay track circuit with bi-directional coding synchronized to work in both directions continuously. It
operates without line wires, using fail-safe electronic circuits and microprocessor logic to send and receive
track code pulses.
Secure operation is obtained through the use of codes and polarity of the track currents. Synchronizing and
decoding code pulses applied to the rails provides vital track information required to operate the signal
system. Codes are transmitted through the rails between signals, making it possible to detect a train and
provide broken rail protection. Electro Code uses a synchronizing technique to effect two-way control of
signals. The receiver responds to DC currents like a code following track relay. The polarity and level of
current must be correct before the receiver will respond.
Triple microprocessors are the heart of the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 signaling system. Input signals from track 1
and track 2 are interpreted by microprocessors on the VPM (Vital Peripheral Master) Module. The VPM
controls all bi-directional system logic functions.
The VPM controls the track code transmitted on the rails, the lamp drive voltages, and vital outputs.
DC/DC converters provide isolated drive voltages for the signal lamps and auxiliary devices.
Track Circuit Theory
A track circuit is a section of rails used to detect the local presence of a train and also a broken rail. An
electric signal is placed on the rails at one end of the track circuit, passes through the rails as the physical
conductor, and is detected at the other end of the track circuit. A train on the track shorts out the conductors
(rails) indicating train presence. Similarly, the track circuit detects a broken rail if the conductor is broken
between the ends of the circuit.
Track circuits are separated from each other by insulated joints, which insulate the adjacent sections of
rails. The length of each track circuit is typically determined by the braking distance of the heaviest train
that could possibly travel on the track, when it is moving at its highest possible speed. The detection of
occupancy in sequential track circuits provide control information for trains moving on these sections.
When the signal is not received through the rails, the track circuit is considered occupied. Occupied track
circuit sections send signals to adjacent track circuits to prevent train movement into them and provide a
slow approach to them by an oncoming train.

Introduction
Train Control Example
We will now go through an example of how the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 is used to control trains that follow
one another between control points. The ElectroLogIXS/EC5 allows the fastest safe train speed while it
maintains safe following distances between trains. The ElectroLogIXS/EC5 (with associated wayside
equipment) forms an integrated train control and signal system. DC Track codes are transmitted through the
tracks. They send and receive status information and aspect control signals (track codes). Status information
includes train presence and location, track circuit integrity (broken rail detection), block occupancy, and
maintenance information, such as a light out.
With respect to railroad signaling:
• aspect = what the signal displays (red, yellow, green).
• indication = what the aspect means (its definition).
• name = what you call the aspect.
For our example, Table 1-1 defines the aspects:
Table 1-1 Aspect Definitions
Indication
Aspect
Name
Proceed at maximum authorized speed
Green
Proceed (Clear)
Proceed, prepared to stop at next signal
Yellow
Approach
Proceed, prepared to stop at the second signal ahead
Flashing Yellow
Advance Approach
Stop
Red
Stop
Figure 1-5 shows an example with four rail blocks and two trains.
Figure 1-5, ElectroLogIXS/EC5 Train Control Example.
This example shows how the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 is used to close the distance between the trains to a
minimum safe distance of two blocks. This increases traffic flow and corridor capacity. The
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 at all locations are synchronized and there is a constant hand-shake protocol through
the rails using electro code track codes.
The example below follows Train 1 and Train 2 through different “conditions” and shows how the
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 controls the trains. The system will always maintain a safety distance behind the train.
This safety distance is a one block with a yellow aspect, followed by a one block with a red aspect.

Event 1
•
•
•
•
•
Train 2 is stopped in Block 4.
Train 1 approaches Block 1 at the corridor’s maximum safe speed.
There are no trains in Blocks 1 through 3.
The aspect at Block 1 is green.
The aspects at Blocks 2, 3, and 4 are flashing yellow, yellow, and red, respectively.
Event 2
•
•
Train 1 enters Block 1.
The ElectroLogIXS/EC5 at Block 1 sets the aspect behind Train 1 to red.
Event 3
•
•
•
Train 1 enters Block 2 at a speed prepared to stop at the second signal ahead.
The ElectroLogIXS/EC5 at Block 2 sets the aspect at Block 2 to red.
The ElectroLogIXS/EC5 at Block 1 sets the aspect to yellow.
Event 4
•
•
•
•
Train 1 enters Block 3 at a speed prepared to stop at the next signal.
The aspect at Block 3 is set to red.
The aspect at Block 2 is set to yellow.
The aspect at Block 1 is set to flashing yellow.
Event 5
•
•
Train 1 arrives at Block 4.
Train 1 stops before passing the red aspect.
Note:
1-12
If Train 2 were not stopped, but was traveling at maximum authorized speed, the
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 behind Train 2 would maintain a safe distance behind Train 2 of three blocks,
one flashing yellow aspect block, one yellow aspect block and one red aspect block.

code pulses are approximately 112 ms (milliseconds) long and are repeated every 2.8 seconds (for freight).
In a typical track circuit, the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 transmission cycle at one end is offset 1.4 seconds from
the transmit cycle at the opposite end. One transmit/receive cycle is completed every 2.8 seconds.

Track Codes
The ElectroLogIXS/EC5 signaling system employs a DC transmitter and receiver at each end of a railroad
block to transmit and receive track code pulses. Electro Code uses time division multiplexing in order to
send track codes bi-directionally on the rails between two locations. This scheme has the advantage of
operating without the need for line wires between track joints that other systems have historically used.
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 code rates are directly track compatible with the same code rates of Electro Code II,
III, 4, Electro Logic 1, and VHLC (Vital Harmon Logic Controller) products.
The track codes contain vital and non-vital data used by the signaling system to control and monitor for
train presence, track circuit integrity (broken rail), and aspect setting and status of distant signals. Loss of
track codes indicate train presence, broken rails, and convey vital aspect data used to activate wayside
signal equipment. Non-vital track codes convey non-vital information such as failed AC power, track
occupancy information, and other conditions that require maintenance action. Tracks codes have inherent
timing characteristics that represent vital and non-vital functions. The reverse polarity employed at
insulated joints prevents adjacent blocks from inadvertently detecting codes on adjacent rails in the event of
insulated joint failure.
Each track code performs a specific task in the signal control system. Ten track code rates are used to send
information between Electro Code signal locations.
Freight Code Rates
Most freight code pulses are approximately 112 ms wide with the following exceptions:
Code 5
Code 6
refer to Code 5 in this chapter
600 ms pulse width
Vital Code Rates
Vital codes are defined by a two pulse transmission in a transmit cycle window. The vital code rate is
calculated from the leading edge of the first pulse to the leading edge of the second pulse.
WARNING
1-14
Certain track equipment may create waveforms that can mimic single
pulse track codes (e.g. code 1 or code 5). Single pulse track code
receive statuses MUST NOT be used for vital functions (where the
track code receive status allows a permissive action or condition).

Introduction
*Inclusion of code 1 in this diagram
does not indicate it is a vital code
but is shown for timing reference.
Figure 1-8, ElectroLogIXS/EC5 Vital Code Examples.
Code 1
Code 1 is used as the first pulse or the synchronizing pulse of the Electro Code, and it is typically used for
three functions:
1.
2.
3.
The leading edge of Code 1 is used to synchronize the turn on time of the return code pulses from
the opposite end of the track circuit.
Timing of control code values is measured from the leading edge of the first pulse (Code 1) to the
leading edge of the second pulse (Codes 7, 4, 3, 2, 9, or 8) as shown in Figure 1-8.
The first pulse is called Code 1 and can be used to provide non-vital track circuit status or in
conjunction with another vital code (e.g. Code 1 + Code 8) to provide block occupancy status.
Width: 115 ms
Rides on: 1 pulse per code cycle
Code 5
Code 5 is typically used for non-vital block indication in all applications. There are two types of code 5
available: alternating code 5, and non-alternating code 5.

Alternating Code 5
Alternating code 5 is recommended for new EC4, EC5, and ElectroLogIXS applications. It is suitable for
long or short track circuits and all track conditions. Code 5 is transmitted with every other transmit cycle.
Alternating code 5 has the following specifications:
Width
Rides on
225 ms
1 pulse per code cycle - every other code cycle
Non-Alternating Code 5
Non-Alternating code 5 is used to be compatible with older Electro Code applications; Electro Code II and
III. Non-Alternating code 5 is compatible with the following older code 5 rates: Standard (Short) code 5,
Long code 5, and Smart code 5. Non-alternating code 5 in ElectroLogIXS/EC5 is somewhat similar to EC4
and EC5's smart code 5. Non-alternating code 5 is adaptive to decode standard and long code 5 sent by
other Electro Code transmitters. Non-alternating code 5 transmits a 350 ms pulse with every code cycle.
Standard (Short) Code 5
Standard code 5 is typically used with Electro Code II and III applications. Standard code 5 has the
following specifications:
Width
Rides on
225 ms
1 pulse per code cycle
Long Code 5
Long code 5 is used for Electro Code 4 applications and is more robust than short code 5. Long code 5 has
the following specifications:
Width
Rides on
350 ms
1 pulse per code cycle
Smart Code 5
Smart code 5 is used with a mixture of Electro Code II, III, and Electro Code 4 applications. The purpose of
smart code 5 is to interface applications using both standard and long code 5.
Smart code 5 will receive either standard or long code 5, but only transmits long code 5. Smart code 5 has
the following specifications:
Width
Rides on
350 ms
1 pulse per code cycle

Vital Remote Protocols
WARNING
Serial to Ethernet converters allow for messages to be buffered. This
buffering could allow messages to be transmitted out of sequence and
incorrectly received if the Vital Remote protocol is set to "RP2000 w/
RP1992 Fallback". Therefore, it is necessary that the Vital Remote
protocol be set to "RP2000 Only" or "RP2009" for an application
whose vital communications employ serial to Ethernet conversion.
RP2000
In this mode the controller will communicate with the remote unit using RP2000. RP2000 messages are
sent continually whether or not the message contents have changed. RP2000 can be used on serial
point-to-point connections, serial multi-drop connections, serial-to-Ethernet connections, direct Ethernet
connections, and Radio links.
RP2000 with RP1992 Fallback
In this mode the controller will start remote communications using the RP2000 protocol. If it detects that
the remote unit is communicating using the RP1992 protocol, the controller will switch to the RP1992
protocol to enable it to communicate with the remote unit. RP1992 can only be used over hard-wired point
to point networks where it is impossible for remote messages to be received out of order.
RP2009
In this mode the controller will communicate with the remote unit using RP2009. When using RP2009,
messages are not sent continually. Rather, messages are only sent when:
1) the message contents changes,
2) a Heartbeat Message Interval (HMI) time has elapsed since the last message was sent, or
3) in acknowledgement of receiving a message from a remote device.
RP2009 can be used on serial connections, serial-to-Ethernet connections, direct Ethernet connections, and
Radio links. RP2009 does not support serial multi-drop connections.
Positive Train Control EMP Class D
In this mode the controller will communicate with other PTC enabled nodes to receive Locomotive Request
messages and send PTC mapped Wayside Interface Unit (WIU) statuses.

CPU A and CPU B
CPU A and CPU B are responsible for the system’s vital application logic processing, communication, and
control of the installed ElectroLogIXS/EC5 I/O modules, and the continual performance of the system
safety checks.
User supplied configuration information such as track and lamp settings, vital configuration settings, etc.
are used by CPU A and CPU B during application program execution and are vitally stored in non-volatile
memory on the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 backplane. All modules, with the exception of the CI and backplane
modules may be replaced without loss of the system configuration information.
CPU C
CPU C is the processor primarily responsible for the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 system diagnostics and user
interface. CPU C provides the communication control interface for the CDU-1, CI or UCI-3, and CIOModules.
CPU C also maintains system wide, non-volatile diagnostic logging in the Error, Recorder, Communication, and
Configuration logs. The non-vital configuration settings, such as baud rates, port settings, etc. are
maintained by CPU C and are stored in non-volatile memory on the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 backplane.
I/O Module Interface
The VPM-2/VPM-2+ contains an interface by which the CPU A and CPU B can communicate with all of
the I/O modules. The VPM-2/VPM-2+ acts as a master while all of the I/O modules in the
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 product family act as slave modules.

CDU Interface
The CDU-1 connector on the front of the VPM-2/VPM-2+ (see Figure 1-13) provides the communication
path between the CPU C and the CDU-1.
CIO Interface
ElectroLogIXS/EC5
The CIO Interface is used for communication between CPU C and the CIO Modules (CIO-1/CIO-1A,
CIO-CLA, CIO-2/CIO-2A, CIO-2AB, CIO-3, CIO-MD/CIO-MDA, CIO-PCA) that are present in the
system. The CIO Interface shown on the VPM provides a generic connection to the CIO Modules, where
the specific CIO Module converts the signals into a specific electrical interface such as RS-232, RS-485,
RS-422 and current loop.
Note:
Not all modules are available for various configurations of the ElectroLogIXS/EC5
Error Log
The ElectroLogIXS/EC5 Error Log captures error / system event information when a detected error / event
occurs. The Error Log entries indicate the date and time of the event, the processor that declared the error /
event and a description of the error / event. The VPM-2/VPM-2+ is capable of storing up to 1,000 Error
Log entries.
Recorder Log
The Recorder Log captures the state / state change of application statuses as indicated in the application
program defined by the application design engineer. To have the values of a particular status recorded in
the Recorder Log, the application engineer must, while programming the application in the GETS-GS ACE:
• Give a name to the status to be recorded.
• Indicate that the named status is to be recorded, and
• Use the status in an equation.
A named status that is indicated in the application program as a recorded status has its value logged in the
Recorder Log each time the status changes state. The VPM2+ Recorder Log is sized to provide 5,000
entries of up to 440 recorded statuses with a log entry indicating name of the status, the current state of the
status and the time / date that the status was set to the indicated state.
Configuration Log
The Configuration Log captures parameter / configuration setting changes as they are made to the system
configuration information used by the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 system. Examples of the configuration
information are track settings, lamp settings, vital configuration settings, and vital timer settings. When
parameters such as these are changed, CPU C captures the change and the date / time of the change in the
Configuration Log. The VPM-2/VPM-2+ Configuration Log is sized to capture the most recent 500
Configuration change events.
Memory Battery
The VPM-2+ has an internal battery for retaining the stored data logs in the absence of power to the VPM2/VPM-2+. The VPM-2/VPM-2+ also has a LOW MEMORY BATTERY indicator for denoting when the
internal battery is nearing its end of life. When the battery voltage is low the LED will illuminate.

Introduction
CPU A and CPU B
CPU A and CPU B are responsible for the system’s vital application logic processing, communication and
control of the installed ElectroLogIXS/EC5 I/O modules, and the continual performance of the system
safety checks.
User supplied configuration information are used by CPU A and CPU B during application program

CPU C is the processor responsible for the non-vital application logic processing and is the processor
primarily responsible for the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 system diagnostics and user interfaces. CPU C provides
the communication control interface for the CDU-1, CI, and CIO Modules along with the two Ethernet
interfaces. CPU C also maintains system-wide, non-volatile diagnostic logging in the Error, Recorder,
Communication, and Configuration logs. The non-vital configuration settings, such as baud rates, port
settings, etc. are maintained by CPU C and are stored in non-volatile memory on the ElectroLogIXS/EC5
backplane.
I/O Module Interface

Surge Protection and Filtering
The Battery Input from the system battery is applied to the Surge Protection and Filtering circuit. This
circuit prevents the DC/DC Converter from sending switching noise out on the battery input wires. The
filtered battery voltage is sent to the DC/DC Converter Circuit.
DC/DC Converter
The DC/DC Converter is a step-down DC/DC converter that converts the filtered battery voltage into
regulated +5 VDC. The +5 VDC signal exits the CPS-1 via the backplane connector and is applied to the
rest of the EC5.
Converter Run Enable and Soft Start Circuit
The Converter Run Enable and Soft Start Circuit monitors the filtered battery voltage signal. This circuit
disables the DC/DC Converter until the filtered battery voltage reaches +7.5 VDC. When the filtered
battery voltage reaches +7.5 VDC the DC/DC Converter is enabled and allowed to operate. If, for any
reason, the filtered battery voltage drops to below +6.75 VDC, the Converter Run Enable and Soft Start
Circuit disables the DC/DC Converter. This allows time for the system charger to charge the battery. When
the battery reaches +7.5 VDC, the Converter Run Enable and Soft Start Circuit again enables the DC/DC
Converter.

Introduction
Undervoltage Detector
The Undervoltage Detector monitors the DC/DC Converter output. Under normal conditions (CPS voltage
within tolerance), it sends a CPS OK signal to the 5V PWR indicator on the CDU-1 to give a visual
indication of the status of the CPS. If the output voltage drops below the preset undervoltage threshold, the
Undervoltage Detector sends a CPS LV signal to the VPM-1. This informs the VPM-1 that the CPS-1 output
voltage is out-of-tolerance and can no longer be considered reliable. When the output voltage is
out-of-tolerance, the 5V PWR LED on the CDU-1 extinguishes to provide a visual indication of the
out-of tolerance condition.

circuit prevents the DC/DC Converter from sending switching noise out on the battery input wires. The
filtered battery voltage is sent to the DC/DC Converter Circuit.
DC/DC Converter
The DC/DC Converter is a step-down DC/DC converter that converts the filtered battery voltage into
regulated +5 VDC. The +5 VDC signal exits the CPS-3 via the backplane connector and is applied to the
rest of the ElectroLogIXS/EC5.
Converter Run Enable and Soft Start Circuit
The Converter Run Enable and Soft Start Circuit monitors the filtered battery voltage signal. This circuit
disables the DC/DC Converter until the filtered battery voltage reaches +7.5 VDC. When the filtered
battery voltage reaches +7.5 VDC the DC/DC Converter is enabled and allowed to operate. If, for any
reason, the filtered battery voltage drops to below +6.75 VDC, the Converter Run Enable and Soft Start
Circuit disables the DC/DC Converter. This allows time for the system charger to charge the battery. When
the battery reaches +7.5 VDC, the Converter Run Enable and Soft Start Circuit again enables the DC/DC
Converter.

Introduction
Undervoltage Detector
The Undervoltage Detector monitors the DC/DC Converter output. Under normal conditions (CPS voltage
within tolerance), it sends a CPS OK signal to the 5V PWR indicator on the CDU-1 to give a visual
indication of the status of the CPS. If the output voltage drops below the preset undervoltage threshold, the
Undervoltage Detector sends a CPS LV signal to the VPM. This informs the VPM that the CPS-3 output
voltage is out-of-tolerance and can no longer be considered reliable. When the output voltage is out-oftolerance, the 5V PWR LED on the CDU-1 extinguishes to provide a visual indication of the out-of
tolerance condition.

VTI-2S Vital Track Interface P/N: 251123-000
The VTI-2S (Vital Track Interface) Module provides a coded DC-track circuit interface for the
ElectroLogIXS/EC5. It has two track circuit transceivers that communicate the Electro Code track circuit
protocols. Also, the VTI-2S has two cab signal control outputs and two auxiliary vital inputs. All
adjustments to track circuits are made using the CDU-1 or a terminal connected to the CIO-1/CIO-1A
or CIO-CLA Module. No mechanical adjustments are required.
Block Diagram Theory
Figure 1-60, VTI-2S Block Diagram.
Isolated DC/DC Converter
The Isolated DC/DC Converter provides isolation between the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 system and the rail. It
is also used to apply DC coded signals to the rail.
Digital Signal Processors
The incoming track codes are converted into digital data and passed to the Digital Signal Processors, which
attenuate all signals above 20 Hz. This virtually eliminates all induced track circuit noise, including power
line noise, cab signals, audio frequency track circuits, and grade crossing predicator signals; no additional
filtering is necessary.
Vital Input
The Vital Inputs are general purpose, two-wire inputs for the ElectroLogIXS/EC5. When an input rises
above 8.0 ±0.5 volts, it is considered energized. The Vital Input remains energized until the input voltage
falls below 6.5 ±0.5 volts. Vital inputs will accept voltages up to 32 VDC.
Cab Output
The VTI-2S Cab Outputs employ closed loop feedback, allowing the VPM to verify that the actual cab
output agrees with the intended cab output.
The Cab Outputs are two wire outputs used to drive cab signal generators with standard one-wire inputs.
Each of the outputs are related to each track interface, i.e. CAB 1 with track 1 and CAB 2 with Track 2.
Note:
1-74
If the cab generator battery is separate from the battery supply for the ElectroLogIXS/EC5, the
battery negatives must be referenced to each other.

TIP-2 Track Inductor Panel P/N: 800-096000-011
The TIP-2 (Track Inductor Panel) provides secondary surge protection that protects the ElectroLogIXS/EC5
system from power surges and lighting strikes that may occur on the rails. Track connections are made
through the use of AAR terminals. Primary surge protection such as arresters and equalizers are still required.
Block Diagram Theory
Inductor
The Inductor passes the received coded track pulses from the tracks. Because of its high impedance, it
reduces all other signals on the tracks (audio, cab, etc.). In addition, the Inductor prevents the VTI-2S from
loading the track circuit while transmitting coded track pulses to the tracks.
TSS-1
The TSS-1 (Track Surge Suppressor - 1) restricts fast power surges and lightning strikes that can occur on
the tracks.

VLD-C6S Vital Lamp Driver Module P/N: 251125-000
The VLD-C6S (Vital Lamp Driver) Module is used to drive signal lamps at an intermediate signal location.
The module has six lamp drive outputs, organized as two banks of three outputs. Only one lamp output per
bank can be energized, and a maximum of two lamp outputs can be energized simultaneously (one lamp
output per bank). Each bank has its own DC/DC Converter. This allows placement of signals at different
distances from the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 chassis.
Each lamp output is capable of driving an 18 to 25 Watt single filament lamp. For color position signaling,
the VLD-C6S is capable of driving two 20 Watt lamps per single position light only; 40 Watts on the upper
head and the lower head is limited to 20 Watts.
Refer to Tables 2-2 through 2-4 for maximum wire lengths.
Also, the VLD-C6S has 4 non-vital input/output ports.
Filament Checks
The VLD-C6S provides circuitry that allows the VPM to monitor and report the filament integrity of all
signal lamp bulbs installed. An open filament on a signal lamp is detectable on both enabled and disabled
signal lamps.
An open filament on a signal lamp that should be on (Hot Filament Detection), is detected by the presence
of two conditions: correct voltage levels on the lamp output, in combination with, low DC/DC converter
output current levels.
An open filament on a signal lamp that should be off (Cold Filament Detection) is detected by the failure to
discharge a test capacitor that is connected to the output for a short period of time. Thus, the VLD-C6S
provides circuitry that allows the detection of the filament integrity without lighting a signal lamp that
should be off.
Upon detection of an open filament, the VPM control will disable the lamp output and indicate an open
filament to the user. If the bulb is replaced, the VPM will allow the signal lamp to be enabled after passing
a minimum of 30 seconds of feedback checks.
Feedback Checks
The VLD-C6S provides feedback circuitry that allows the VPM to monitor and report the integrity of the
lamp output switch operation. The response to a detected hardware failure is a shutdown of all lamp outputs
on the module.
During a module shutdown, the VLD-C6S Module ceases to drive lamps for a minimum of 30 seconds
before the VPM attempts a VLD-C6S Module recovery. If the feedback checks are successful during
recovery, the VLD-C6S will resume driving signal lamps as long as the feedback circuitry continues to
indicate proper lamp output switch operation.

Introduction
Block Diagram Theory
As previously mentioned, the VLD-C6S has six lamp drive outputs, organized in two banks of three
outputs. Since the operation of the two banks are identical, only the operation of bank 1 is discussed.
Isolated DC/DC Converter
Figure 1-64, VLD-C6S Block Diagram.
The VPM controls the lamp drive voltage level needed to drive the signal lamps. The DC/DC Converter
supplies the proper lamp drive voltage (according to the level specified by the VPM) to the Lamp Output
Switch and isolates the lamp output power from the battery input. Adjustment of the lamp drive voltage is
accomplished using the CDU-1.
Lamp Output Switch
The Lamp Output Switch contains three lamp switches. Only one output per bank can be energized at any
given time. The lamp enable signal from the VPM enables (turns on) the appropriate Lamp Output which,
in turn, drives the signal lamp using the voltage supplied by the DC/DC Converter.
Non-Vital Input/Output
In addition to its lamp driving capability, the VLD-C6S also has four non-vital I/O ports. Each of the four
bidirectional ports can be configured as an input or an output. If used as an output the VPM can energize
the output with 12V. If used as an input, voltages from 5 to 16 can energize the input.
NVIO port 1 can be used for a POR (Power Off Relay) function, with an additional module for the AC
interface, typically the ACP. The non-vital I/O ports can also be used for double track approach lighting and
other non-vital functions implemented by non-vital relays and non-vital devices.

Introduction
VLD-R16S Vital Lamp Driver Module P/N 251381-000
WARNING
Power for the VLD-R16S lamp outputs via Lamp B/Lamp N must be
supplied through the contacts of an AREMA compatible vital relay that
is controlled by the VSSR driver circuit (VSSR1 and VSSR2 outputs)
on the respective VLD-R16S module.
The VLD-R16S (Vital Lamp Driver) Module is used to drive signal lamps in any signaling application.
The module has sixteen lamp outputs, organized as two banks of eight outputs each, and is capable of
energizing all outputs on both banks simultaneously as long as the total current output remains at or below
20 Amps per bank, 40 Amps for the module.
Each lamp output is capable of driving single filament, incandescent lamps from 18 to 28 Watts or GELcore
Model 92 LED signals, in any combination, as long as the maximum current per bank is not exceeded.
Signals can be driven at varying distances depending upon wire gauge, bulb wattage, use of common
returns, etc. Refer to the tables in Section 2 for more information on specific wire lengths.
VLD-R16S modules are able to be removed and installed while the ElectroLogIXS system is powered on.
Thus, a failed VLD-R16S module may be replaced and returned to normal operation without disrupting
other functions provided by the system.

ElectroLogIXS VLC and EC5
The voltage level delivered to the actual signal lamp itself is controlled via the Lamp Power Input voltage
level. The Monitor Circuitry monitors the voltage level of the Lamp Power input and, if too low, disables
the VSSR output and shuts the lamp bank down.
Lamp Power Inputs
Each lamp bank is supplied Lamp Power via a dedicated Lamp Power input. The Lamp Power input is a
two-wire 12 VDC input (nominal) with an operational range 9.5 VDC to 16.5 VDC and a Lamp Power
neutral (return) reference. The Lamp Power inputs are able to withstand application of 20 VDC in either
polarity without damaging the module.
The voltage level delivered to the actual signal lamp itself is controlled via the Lamp Power Input voltage
level. The Monitor Circuitry monitors the voltage level of the Lamp Power input and, if too low, disables
the VSSR output and shuts the lamp bank down.
Lamp Outputs
The Lamp Outputs switch the Lamp Power input of the lamp bank to the appropriate Lamp Output under
control of the VPM. All Lamp Outputs in a bank can be energized simultaneously as long as the total bank
current does not exceed 20 Amps.
Each Lamp Output has short circuit protection (a short will not damage the module) and is able to survive
externally applied voltages of 20 VDC in either polarity. A shorted lamp output or an external voltage that
causes a lamp output to appear to be on when it should be off will cause the Lamp Bank to shut down. The
Lamp Bank will return to normal operation after the short has been corrected or the external, positive
polarity voltage source has been removed and the lamp bank has been down for at least 30 seconds. An
externally applied reverse polarity voltage may cause the protective fuse to blow for the associated lamp
bank. Normal operation returns once the fuse is replaced.
VSSR Outputs
The Vital Signal Stop (VSSR) outputs are two-wire, vital outputs that deliver output voltage in the range of
9.5 VDC to 16.5 VDC into relay loads from 50 Ω to 1150 Ω. The VSSR outputs are designed to allow
independent operation. However, they can be programmed by the user to operate in a combined fashion
should the application require it.
The VSSR Outputs are powered by the ElectroLogIXS equipment power (not the Lamp Power Inputs) and
are able to withstand short circuit, open circuit, or external application of 32 VDC positive polarity for a
period of 24 hours.
Monitor Circuitry
Each lamp bank incorporates Monitor Circuitry that provides the VPM with the voltage and current levels
of the Lamp Outputs, the voltage level of the Lamp Power input, and the voltage level of the internal
module circuitry. If the Monitor Circuitry detects that the internal module circuitry voltage has dropped
below the operational level, it disables the VSSR outputs for both lamp banks without VPM interaction.

Introduction
Filament Checks
The VLD-R16S provides monitor circuitry that allows the VPM to monitor, report, and respond to the
filament integrity of all signal lamps installed. The circuitry allows open filaments to be detected on
energized and de-energized lamps.
An open filament on a signal lamp that should be on is detected by observing low output current while the
energizing output voltage is being applied.
For signal lamps that are off, an open filament is detected by energizing the output for a short (less than 2
milliseconds) time and observing the current on the output. This approach confirms filament integrity
while allowing the signal lamp to remain off.
Upon detection of any open filament, the VPM disables the lamp output and indicates the open filament
condition to the user. When the bulb is replaced, the VPM allows the signal lamp to be energized if the bulb
has been off for a minimum of 30 seconds.
Feedback Checks
The VLD-R16S contains feedback circuitry to allow the VPM to monitor and report on the integrity of the
lamp output circuitry. The response to a detected fault (off when should be on, on when should be off, etc.)
is a de-energizing of all the Lamp Outputs and a disabling of the Vital Signal Stop Relay (VSSR) output
associated with that lamp bank.
After a lamp bank has been shut down, the VPM disables the eight Lamp Outputs and the VSSR output for
the bank for a minimum of 30 seconds. After 30 seconds have passed, the VSSR output is enabled and the
VPM performs a health check of the lamp bank. If the lamp bank passes the health checks, the VLD-R16S
resumes normal operation. Otherwise, if the lamp bank fails one or more health checks, the VSSR output is
disabled and the VPM waits another 30 seconds before retrying.

Introduction
VIO-1010S Track Code Select Input / Track Code Decoder Output Module
P/N: 251132-000
The VIO-1010S (Track Code Select Input/Track Code Decoder Output) Module provides an interface
between a relay-based interlocking and the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 system. The VIO-1010S has 10 code select
inputs and 10 decoder outputs to interface with relay-based systems.
Inputs
This module produces an isolated battery voltage (REF+ and REF-) used to energize an input. This battery
voltage used with vital relay contacts accomplish code selection. An open relay contact is defined as a deenergized input, and a closed relay contact is defined as an energized input. Based on the relay contact
inputs (open/closed), the application equations select the code(s) to be transmitted. The isolated battery
voltage connected to a track code select input will be de-energized when it is below 5.5 VDC and energized
when it is above 7.5 VDC.
Outputs
With a battery supply voltage of 13.5 VDC and a track code decoder output connected to a 500 ohm load, a
track code decoder output typically supplies 15 to 16.5 VDC (depending on the number of outputs
energized) with no more than 100 mV peak to peak ripple. Each track code decoder output is capable of
driving a load impedance of 150 ohms or greater. The VIO-1010S is capable of simultaneously energizing
up to five track decoder outputs.
Block Diagram Theory
Track Code Select Inputs
The track code select information from the relay-based interlocking system is sent to the Surge Protection
Circuit.
Surge Protection
The Surge Protection Circuit protects the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 system from voltage surges that may occur
on the track code select inputs. The Surge Protection Circuits prevents damage if voltages exceed 32 VDC
or are applied in reverse polarity, to a track code select input. From the Surge Protection Circuit, the track
code select information is sent to the Signature Decoder Circuit.

Signature Generator
The Signature Generator Circuit generates a continuous data string which is sent to the Signature Decoder

Signature Decoder
The Signature Decoder Circuit mixes the analog track code select input voltage with a continuous data
string generated by the Signature Generator Circuit. The resultant data is a 16-bit word for each input that is
sent to the VPM for processing. Based on these 16-bit words, the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 application software
determines which inputs are energized and which codes to send on the tracks.
Isolated DC/DC Converter
The Isolated DC/DC Converter isolates the track code decoder outputs from battery and supplies the
voltage necessary to drive the outputs.
Output Switches
The Output Switches control which outputs are energized or de-energized. From the Output Switch Circuit,
the track code decoder output voltages are sent to the Surge Protection Circuit.
Surge Protection
The Surge Protection Circuit protects the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 system from voltage surges that may occur
on the track code decoder outputs. The Surge Protection Circuits prevent damage if voltages do not exceed
32 VDC.
Track Code Decoder Outputs
From the Surge Protection Circuit, the Track Code Decoder Output information is sent to the relay-based
interlocking system. Based on this information, the relay logic in the relay-based system determines which
track codes were received by the ElectroLogIXS/EC5.

Introduction
VIO-44R Vital Input/Output Module P/N 251379-000
The VIO-44R (Vital Input/Output) Module contains four redundant general purpose, two wire, Vital Inputs
and outputs. It is used for vital system control by monitoring vital inputs and supplying vital outputs
according to the application equations. The inputs can be used for switch status, slide fences, and other vital
controls while the outputs can be used for vital control of switch machines and other equipment.
Surge Protection
The Surge Protection protects the VIO-44R from power surges that may occur at a Vital Input or Vital
Output.
Isolated DC/DC Converter
The Isolated DC/DC Converter provides isolation between the supply battery and the vital outputs.
Vital Input
The Vital Inputs are redundant general purpose two-wire inputs for the ElectroLogIXS. When an input
rises above 8.0 ± 0.5 Volts, it is considered energized. The vital input remains energized until the input
voltage falls below 6.5 ± 0.5 Volts. Vital inputs will accept voltages up to 32 VDC.
When a vital input fails the module transfers to the redundant vital input. If a failure occurs where the
module loses the vital input redundancy, the IN REDUNDANCY LED will be turned off.
Signature Generator
The Signature Generator generates a continuous data string that is sent to the signature decoder for
processing.
Signature Decoder
The Signature Decoder Circuit mixes the input signals with a continuous data string generated by the
signature generator circuit. The resultant data is then sent to the VPM for processing. Based on this data,
the ElectroLogIXS determines the input information.
Slow Release/Slow Pick
Each vital input can have a Slow Release and/or Slow Pick time set via the CDU or application logic. The
slow release and slow pick times can be set from 0-30 seconds in 1 second increments. The slow release
and slow pick times have a tolerance of ± 0.5 seconds. If the slow release/pick minimum and maximum are
set at the same number in the application then the time is not selectable through the CDU.
Vital Output
The vital outputs are redundant general purpose, two-wire outputs for the ElectroLogIXS. With a battery
supply voltage of 13.5 VDC and a two wire vital output connected to a 500 ohm load, a two-wire vital
output typically supplies 12 to 13 VDC (depending on the number of outputs energized with no more than
300 mV peak-to-peak of ripple. All the Vital Outputs are capable of driving load impedances of 50 ohms.
When a vital output fails all the vital outputs are shutdown for at least 30 seconds. After 30 seconds the
vital outputs are transferred to the redundant vital outputs and they are set back to their energized or deenergized state. The vital outputs can be forced to switch to the redundant bank using the CDU. If a failure
occurs where the module loses the vital output redundancy then the OUT REDUNDANCY LED is turned
off.

Introduction
VIO-86S Vital Input/Output Module P/N 251380-000
The VIO-86S (Vital Input/Output) Module contains eight gracefully degrading general purpose, two wire,
vital inputs and six gracefully degrading general purpose, two wire, vital outputs. It is used for vital system
control by monitoring vital inputs and supplying vital outputs according to the application equations. The
inputs can be used for switch status, slide fences, and other vital controls while the outputs can be used for
the vital control of switch machines and other equipment. VIO-86S modules are able to be removed and
installed while the ElectroLogIXS system is powered on. Thus, a failed VIO-86S module may be replaced
and returned to normal operation without disrupting other functions provided by the system.
Surge Protection
The Surge Protection protects the VIO-86S from power surges that may occur at a vital input or vital
output.
Isolated DC/DC Converter
The Isolated DC/DC Converter provides isolation between the supply battery and the vital outputs.
Vital Input
The Vital Inputs are general purpose two-wire inputs for the ElectroLogIXS. When an input rises above 8.0
± 0.5 Volts, it is considered energized. The vital input remains energized until the input voltage falls below
6.5 ± 0.5 Volts. Vital inputs will accept voltages up to 32 VDC.

The Signature Generator generates a continuous data string that is sent to the Signature Decoder for
processing.
Signature Decoder
The Signature Decoder Circuit mixes the input signals with a continuous data string generated by the
Signature Generator Circuit. The resultant data is then sent to the VPM for processing. Based on this data,

Slow Release/Slow Pick
Each vital input can have a Slow Release and/or Slow Pick time set via the CDU or application logic. The
slow release and slow pick times can be set from 0-30 seconds in 1 second increments. The slow release
and slow pick times have a tolerance of ± 0.5 seconds. If the Slow Release/Pick Minimum and Maximum
are set at the same number in the application, the time is not selectable through the CDU.
Vital Output
The Vital Outputs are gracefully degrading general purpose, two-wire outputs for the ElectroLogIXS. The
vital outputs are grouped into 2 banks of 3 vital outputs. Each group is independent of the other and
therefore can be shut down while not effecting the operation of the other bank. With a battery supply
voltage of 13.5 VDC and a vital output connected to a 500 ohm load, a vital output typically supplies
12 to 13 VDC (depending on the number of outputs energized with no more than 300 mV peak-to-peak of
ripple. All the Vital Outputs are capable of driving load impedances of 50 ohms.
If a vital output fails, only the three vital outputs on the same bank as the failed vital output are shutdown.
The remaining three vital outputs remain functional. When a bank has a vital output failure, the associated
BANK HEALTH LED is turned off.

In some installations there is the possibility of radiated interference from nearby equipment. If
engineering determines that a particular installation is susceptible, it is recommended that the provided
ferrites be installed on all Input and Output cabling connected to the personality module. Place the
ferrite around each I/O cable as close to the personality module as possible. If ferrites are placed
in series, ensure they are as close as possible to each other.

Introduction
EC5 Chassis
The open-frame EC5 chassis allows easy access to all modules.
Figure 1-86, EC5 Chassis
Backplane
The modules plug into the Backplane. The one-piece Backplane has minimal interconnections, which helps
to make the EC5 more reliable. The plug couplers can address wiring from either side of the Backplane,
depending on the way it is mounted.
There are two types of Backplanes used for the EC5. They are:
• BP-1 is used for Repeater, Colorlight, and Lock systems.
• BP-2 is used for Endbox systems.
General Features
All Backplanes have the general features listed below:
Power
Power components are located in the upper left corner of the Backplane:
• Battery (B) and Negative (N) AAR terminals.
• 5 Vdc ON/OFF switch.
• Automobile-style fuses (protect individual modules).
• Test points for +5 Vdc and COM.
+12 Vdc is supplied to the I/O module slots through the Backplane. Fuses 1, 2, 3, and 4 protect the system
in event of an over-current condition.
Chassis ID DIP Shunt Pack
The Chassis ID DIP Shunt Pack is located on the Backplane under the CI or UCI-3 Module. This is configured
with the same number as the Chassis ID Number in the Application EPROM (that is plugged into the CI or UCI-3
Module).

EEPROMs
Three Configuration EEPROMs contain FRC (Field Related Configuration) data. The FRC information is
entered by the user via the CDU-1. Data is written/read to/from these EEPROMs by the VPM-1 Module.
This data stored may be as simple as the date and time, or as specific as the track voltage/current settings.

Chapter 2 – Installation
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 Shipment, Unpacking, and Inspection
The ElectroLogIXS/EC5 chassis may be shipped either by itself or installed in a rack assembly with other
items like a TIP-2 (Track Inductor Panel), depending on the system ordered.
CAUTION
If any shipping damage is detected, do not attempt to install or repair
the ElectroLogIXS/EC5. Contact GETSGS (GE Transportation Global
Signaling) for repair or replacement of the damaged equipment.
The ElectroLogIXS/EC5 is shipped with all of the plug-in modules removed from the slots. The modules
and the I/O cables are packed separately. Unpack the chassis assembly, plug-in modules and cables, and
visually inspect each for shipping damage.
WARNING
After installation or update of an ElectroLogIXS/EC5 unit, adequate
testing must be performed to detect any errors/failures of the application
equations, PTC mapping rules, equipment, or installation. The tests
should be performed before the unit is placed into service and in
accordance with standard railroad, FRA, and/or other regulatory agency
rules. This should include visual inspection of vital parameter values.
The tests should be performed by qualified personnel that have
the knowledge to correctly and safely discharge the tests. Failure to
adequately test the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 unit after installation could
result in death or serious injury.
Railroad Configuration Management Procedures must ensure that all
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 units are configured with the proper revisions of
modules and firmware (application, PTC and executive) and that
updates are completed in a timely manner when made available by
GE Transportation Systems Global Signaling. Operating with
incorrect firmware may result in death or serious injury. Timely is
defined as without undue delay per 49 CFR 236.1023(j).
Railroad Configuration Management Procedures must ensure that the
proper values are set for each vital timer, vital Configuration
setting (vital soft switches), PTC applicability settings, PTC debounce
time, PTC WIU address, and vital remote parameter in their
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 units. Incorrect settings may result in death or
serious injury.
WARNING
100373-010 AR0
Unauthorized modification of the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 installation may
result in unsafe conditions that could result in death or serious injury.
Responsibility for physically securing the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 from
unauthorized access lies with the railway authority.

ElectroLogIXS VLC and EC5
WARNING
When an ElectroLogIXS/EC5 vital remote link is configured for
anything other than point-to-point operation over a hard-wired serial
cable, configuration management must ensure that duplicate Local
Network IDs do not exist on that communications net. Examples of
communications nets include, but are not limited to:
· Multi-drop serial communications
· Local Area Networks (LANs)
· Wide Area Networks (WANs)
· Fiber-Optic backbones
· Radio communications
This includes devices that may belong to other railway agencies (e.g.
on radio links). Failure to ensure that there are no duplicate Local
Network IDs on a communications net could result in death or serious
injury. (See Volume Two, Appendix B for more detailed information)
WARNING
An ElectroLogIXS/EC5 must not be configured with identical
Local/Remote Network ID pairs for different vital remote links, even if
those vital remote links are on different communications nets. If
duplicate Local/Remote Network ID pairs are used for redundancy,
the application/installation must ensure that only one of the duplicate
pairs is active/operational at a given time. Failure to ensure that there
are no duplicate Local/Remote Network ID pairs within an
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 or that redundant pairs cannot be active/
operational simultaneously could result in death or serious injury.
(See Volume Two, Appendix B for more detailed information)
When setting a vital remote link Local or Remote Network ID on an
ElectroLogIXS/EC5, use only the value supplied on the application
circuit plans. If this information is not available from the application
circuit plans, do not put that vital remote link into service until this is
corrected. Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury.
(See Volume Two, Appendix B for more detailed information)
WARNING
The VPM-2 Diagnostic Port and the VPM-3 USB Port do not provide
isolation protection against Ground Faults. These ports are intended
for short-term use by on-site personnel who are trained to observe any
operational anomalies. If the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 is powered from
Signal or Equipment battery, Ground Faults in external equipment
attached to the VPM-2 Diagnostic Port or the VPM-3 USB Port may be
passed through to the powering battery. Undetected Ground Faults to
Signal or Equipment battery may result in hazardous rail operation.
If connections to the VPM-2 Diagnostic Port or the VPM-3 USB Port
are left unattended, the connected equipment must provide any
required Ground Fault protection. Ground Fault testing must be
performed after the connection is established, and at FRA mandated
intervals thereafter.

WARNING
The CIO-1/CIO-1A, CIO-CLA, CIO-2/CIO-2A, CIO-2AB, CIO-3,
CIO-MD/CIO-MDA, CIO-PCA, and the VPM-3 Ethernet ports
provide isolation protection against Ground Faults. If the
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 is powered from Signal or Equipment battery,
Ground Faults in external equipment attached to the CIO-1/CIO-1A,
CIO-CLA, CIO-2/CIO-2A, CIO-2AB, CIO-3, CIO-MD/CIO-MDA, CIO-PCA,
or the VPM-3 Ethernet ports combined with a failure of the
isolation protection of the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 may be passed through
to the powering battery under certain failure conditions. Undetected
Ground Faults to Signal or Equipment battery may result in hazardous
rail operation.
If connections to the CIO-1/CIO-1A, CIO-CLA, CIO-2/CIO-2A, CIO-2AB,
CIO-3, CIO-MD/CIO-MDA, CIO-PCA, or the VPM-3 Ethernet ports
are left unattended, Ground Fault testing must be performed after the
connection is established, and at FRA mandated intervals thereafter.
WARNING
An ElectroLogIXS unit must be configured with a unique Wayside
Interface Unit (WIU) address for Positive Train Control (PTC)
messaging. Failure to ensure the uniqueness of the WIU address
could result in death or serious injury.
When configuring an ElectroLogIXS unit for PTC operation, use only
the WIU address value supplied on the site plans. If the WIU address
value is not available from the site plans, do not enable PTC operation
on the unit. Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury.
ElectroLogIXS Chassis Mounting and Setup
The ElectroLogIXS chassis assemblies (9-slot or 4-slot) consist of a rack or shelf mountable cabinet with
integrated card rack for plug-in modules.
The chassis assembly is factory assembled for both individually shipped ElectroLogIXSs and rack mounted
units. If the ElectroLogIXS is received as a rack mounted unit, the following chassis mounting procedure
can be ignored. However, verify that the chassis identification shunts match the Application Circuit Plan
for the chassis. Refer to Chassis ID Setup in this section. For VPM-3 ElectroLogIXS systems that are
using Application Identification shunts refer to Application ID Setup in this section.
Chassis Mounting
,
The chassis may be installed on a standard 19 inch rack, wall mounted, or shelf mounted. If rack mounted
provide at least two inches of space above and below for cooling air flow. Secure the cabinet to the rack
with at least four ½-inch 10-32 machine screws. If wall or shelf mounted, provide at least two inches of
space above the chassis for ventilation.

Chassis Grounding
The ElectroLogIXS power is isolated from the ElectroLogIXS chassis assembly. This allows the chassis to
be connected to earth ground for shielding purposes. The ElectroLogIXS chassis must be connected to earth
ground to ensure compliance with FCC requirements.
Connecting System Battery
The ElectroLogIXS requires a 12 VDC power source connected to the B and N terminals. Location of the
B and N terminals are dependent upon the type of chassis used. The amount of power required for the
ElectroLogIXS depends on the installation and the type of modules installed in the system. An ElectroLogIXS
with all possible module slots used will require a charger rated for at least 25 amps. In addition, each VLD
module requires a battery input connection via the VLD personality module for lamp power.

Filters
A track filter may be required under the following conditions:
Crossings:
!
!
!
All crossing applications
When motion detectors or predictors are used in conjunction with an approach
If the transmit frequency of an audio circuit is below 156 Hz.
Motion Detectors/Predictors
Detectors and motion predictors use changing impedance to detect motion. When the VTI transmitter turns
on there is a change in impedance on the track circuit which can trip a very sensitive motion detector. The
code pulses may be misinterpreted and cause an unplanned crossing start. The filter blocks the frequency
sensed by the detector /predictor so that the code pulses will not be detected or acted on.
Transmit frequency below 156 Hz
The pulse output from the Electro Code is considered a square wave, however some rounding on the
leading edge of the pulse does occur. Since this may cause occasional erratic operation for equipment
operating at low frequencies, we recommend installation of a track filter on all tracks with equipment
operating at frequencies of 156 Hz and below.
Filter Selection
A track filter is a notch filter; it should be selected based on the transmit frequency. Install it in series with
the positive lead of the track circuit. There is no polarity on the track filter.
The number of filters which may be used in a track circuit are limited by the track circuit length and
ballast conditions. The DC resistance of winding in a filter provides about1/10 of an ohm which appears
to the Electro Code as approximately 1000 feet of track. This means that if three track filters are installed,
the track length will be limited by approximately 3,000 feet.
Figure 2-1c is a typical application drawing using two track filters. Table 2-1 lists Track Filters available
from GE Transportation Systems Global Signaling.

EC5 Rack Mounted Installation Using Rear Chassis Connector
Figure 2-5 illustrates the wire routing using the rear chassis connectors. The routing of wires for your
installation may differ depending site requirements and location. All wires should be routed to avoid
electrical interference and should be routed to avoid unnecessary stress on the connectors.

Chassis Grounding
The EC5 power is isolated from the EC5 chassis assembly. This allows the chassis to be connected to earth
ground for shielding purposes, if desired.
Connecting System Battery
The EC5 requires a 12 Vdc power source. For the EC5 with signals, the minimum charger rating required is
15 Amps. For a Repeater, a 10 Amp minimum is required.
The System Battery may be connected any time after the EC5 Chassis has been mounted in its permanent
location.
1. Verify the Power Switch is in the OFF position.

Chassis ID Setup
The chassis must be configured with the Chassis ID value expected for the application loaded on the
Application EPROM. The value of the Chassis ID is set by the DIP shunt located on the backplane
underneath the CI module. The CI module must be removed to gain access to the DIP Shunts. If no DIP
Shunt is installed in the socket, the Chassis ID value is “0.”
If the application program does not have status names defined for the Chassis ID binary values, the Chassis
ID must match the expected value or the VPM will not run the selected application program. If status names
are defined for the Chassis ID values, the VPM will run the application and the application logic is
responsible for determining the proper Chassis ID value.

Shunt Location
Shunt Location.
Note:
If the DIP Number does not match the Chassis ID Number of the Application EPROM, the CDU-1
will display "Incorrect Chassis ID" and the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 will not operate.
Figure 2-8, DIP Shunt.
To configure the chassis with the correct Chassis ID Number:
1.
Locate the DIP Shunt underneath the CI Module. The DIP Shunt is a rectangular plastic IC package
approximately one inch long that contains eight wire shunts, numbered from 1 thru 8.
Note:
2-14
If the CI Module is installed, first remove the CI Module. The DIP is located underneath the CI
Module.

Installation
2.
Find the Chassis ID Number in the Application Circuit Plan. It is the Chassis ID Number that was
determined when the Application EPROM logic equations were written. It is a number between 0 and
255.
3.
Set the DIP Number to the same Chassis ID Number, as explained below:
The shunt wires of the DIP represent binary digits. The binary digit number value of each shunt wire is
shown in Figure 2-9.
Figure 2-9, DIP Shunt Binary Digit Value.
Note:
The 1-slot chassis has a two sockets for the Chassis ID DIP. Only the rightmost socket (S2) is
used for the Chassis ID.
The DIP Number is the sum of the binary digits of the shunt wires that are not cut. The wire has a value if
it is connected (shorted); the wire is not counted if it is cut (open). For example, if all the shunt wires are
connected, the number is 255; if all the shunt wires are cut, the number is 0 (zero).

Write down the Chassis ID Number.
Subtract the largest Binary Digit Value available (128, 64, 32, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1) that will not give a
negative answer from the Chassis ID. Mark the corresponding shunt wire with a felt pin.
Write down the result.
Subtract the largest Binary Digit Value available that will not give a negative answer from result.
Mark the corresponding shunt wire with a felt pin.
Write down the new result.
Repeat the subtraction process until the remainder or result is zero.
Add all the Binary Digit Values that were used. The answer should equal the Chassis ID.
Leave all the shunt wires marked with the pen and cut all the remaining shunts.
Note:

DIP Shunt Ordering
If more Chassis ID Number DIP shunt packs are needed, the P/N is 032625-004.
Application ID Setup
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 systems that have VPM-3 and CI-2 or UCI-3 modules may run application programs
that use the Application ID. The 16-bit Application ID value is set using two, low-profile, 8-bit shunts located
on the CI-2 or UCI-3 module under the EPROM.
The Application ID settings are used as status inputs to the application program. Thus, the application
program is responsible for the correctness of the Application ID settings. ElectroLogIXS/EC5 does not
require a specific value for the Application ID as it may do for Chassis ID.

Application ID / DIP Number Setup
The Application ID value is set in a similar fashion to the Chassis ID value. The difference is that the
Application ID value is a 16-bit value allowing a range of 0 – 65,535. Refer to the Application Circuit Plan
for the value to use for the Application ID.
The binary digit number values of the shunts are shown in Figure 2-12. The process of determining which
shunt wired to cut / leave is the same as described in Chassis ID Setup.

VPM-2/VPM-2+ Executive Software Update
This procedure is used to update the VPM-2/VPM-2+ Executive Software. To perform this procedure, a
computer with a serial port interface and a terminal emulation program (e.g. HyperTerminal) is required in
addition to the VPM-2/VPM-2+ Executive software files.
1.
Prior to uploading the new VPM-2/VPM-2+ Executive Software, ensure the values for all configurable
parameters are available from the site documentation or have been recorded from the
values shown on the CDU.
2.
Connect the computer serial port to the VPM-2/VPM-2+ diagnostic port via serial cable.
3.
Configure the Terminal Emulation program as follows:
Baud Rate:
57600 bps
Parity:

WARNING
Railroad Configuration Management Procedures must ensure that all
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 units are configured with the proper revisions of
modules and firmware (application, PTC, and executive) and that
updates are completed in a timely manner when made available by
GE Transportation Systems Global Signaling. Operating with incorrect
firmware may result in death or serious injury. Timely is defined as
without undue delay per 49 CFR 236.1023(j).
Railroad Configuration Management Procedures must ensure that
the proper values are set for each vital timer, PTC applicability setting,
PTC debounce time and PTC WIU address in their ElectroLogIXS/EC5
units Incorrect settings may result in death or serious injury.
After installation or update of an ElectroLogIXS/EC5 unit, adequate testing
must be performed to detect any errors/failures of the application equations,
PTC mapping rules, equipment, or installation. The tests should be
performed before the unit is placed into service and in accordance with
standard railroad, FRA, and/or other regulatory agency rules. This should
include visual inspection of vital parameter values. The tests should be
performed by qualified personnel that have the knowledge to correctly
correctly and safely discharge the tests. Failure to adequately test the
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 unit after installation could result in death or serious
injury.
After updating executive software for the VPM-3 processors, all
vital parameter settings must be at the correct values for the specific
EC4 installation. Failure to verify the parameter settings
after VPM-3 executive software update could cause
unsafe operation resulting in death or serious injury.
Before returning the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 to service, verify the PTC
Applicability Settings, PTC Debounce Times, PTC WIU Address, and Timer
Values against the Application Circuit Plan. Failure to verify the PTC
Applicability Settings, PTC Debounce Times, PTC WIU Address, and
Timer Values could result in a falsely permissive aspect which could
result in serious injury or death. Always verify the PTC Applicability
Settings, PTC Debounce Times, PTC WIU Address, and Timer Values
when replacing the PTC mapping rules, the PTC configuration file or
the equations.
A ElectroLogIXS/EC5 unit must be configured with a unique Wayside
Interface Unit (WIU) address for Positive Train Control (PTC) messaging.
Failure to ensure the uniqueness of the WIU address could result in death
or serious injury.
When configuring a ElectroLogIXS/EC5 unit for PTC operation, use only
the WIU address value supplied on the site plans. If the WIU address
values is not available from the site plans, do not enable PTC operation
.
on the unit. Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury

WARNING
After updating and activating executive software for the VPM-3 A and
VPM-3 B processors, all vital parameter settings must be at the correct
values for the specific ElectroLogIXS/EC5 installation. Failure to
verify the parameter settings after VPM-3 A and VPM-3 B executive
software update could cause unsafe operation resulting in death or
serious injury.
CI-2 or UCI-3 Application Program Update
WARNING
A CI-2 or UCI-3 module may contain an application or PTC mapping /
configuration information in the non-volatile CI-2 or UCI-3 memory.
After installing or replacing a CI-2 or UCI-3 module, ensure the
ElectroLogIXS is configured with the proper revisions of application
program and PTC mapping / configuration information. Installing
incorrect revisions may result in death or serious injury.
The VPM-3 Application program stored in the CI-2 or UCI-3 Flash memory can be updated over a
CIO-1/CIO-1A/CIO-CLA Serial Interface, over Ethernet connection using a Terminal Interface or Ethernet
connection using Web GUI interface
VPM-3 application files can be uploaded to the CI-2 or UCI-3 module and are identified as follows:
. xxxx.mb1 - Multi-file application file. Contains one or more Vital and/or Non-Vital applications
. xxxxv.b1 - Single application file. Contains a Vital application (denoted by final v before .b1)
. xxxxnv.b1 - Single application file. Contains a Non-vital application (denoted by final nv before .b1)
To update via Terminal interface, a terminal program (e.g. HyperTerminal) that is capable of Telnet is
required (uses the Ethernet connection only) or a Terminal program, CIO-1/CIO-1A/CIO-CLA module, and a
computer with a serial interface is required. In both Terminal interface approaches, the computer used for
the update must have TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) server software installed.
To update via the Web GUI interface, Ethernet Connection to VPM-3 is required.
The CI-2 or UCI-3 Flash memory stores one application program file or one multi-application program file of any
size up to 8 Mbytes. When this download procedure is performed, the downloaded file overwrites any file
previously stored on the CI-2 or UCI-3 module.
Note:
2-32
If an EPROM with a valid application file is installed on the CI-2 or UCI-3 module, the VPM-3 will
not read the application from the Flash memory but will use the application loaded on the EPROM.
To use the CI-2 or UCI-3 Flash memory, remove any EPROM device from the CI-2 or UCI-3.

WARNING
After updating and activating executive software for the VPM-3 A and
VPM-3 B processors, all vital parameter settings must be at the correct
values for the specific ElectroLogIXS/EC5 installation. Failure to
verify the parameter settings after VPM-3 A and VPM-3 B executive
software update could cause unsafe operation resulting in death or
serious injury.
CI-2 or UCI-3 Application Program Update
WARNING
A CI-2 or UCI-3 module may contain an application or PTC mapping /
configuration information in the non-volatile CI-2 or UCI-3 memory. After
installing or replacing a CI-2 or UCI-3 module, ensure the ElectroLogIXS
is configured with the proper revisions of application program and PTC
mapping / configuration information. Installing incorrect revisions may
result in death or serious injury.
The VPM-3 Application program stored in the CI-2 or UCI-3 Flash memory can be updated over a
CIO-1/CIO-1A/CIO-CLA Serial Interface, over Ethernet connection using a Terminal Interface or Ethernet
connection using Web GUI interface
VPM-3 application files can be uploaded to the CI-2 or UCI-3 module and are identified as follows:
. xxxx.mb1 - Multi-file application file. Contains one or more Vital and/or Non-Vital applications
. xxxxv.b1 - Single application file. Contains a Vital application (denoted by final v before .b1)
. xxxxnv.b1 - Single application file. Contains a Non-vital application (denoted by final nv before .b1)
To update via Terminal interface, a terminal program (e.g. HyperTerminal) that is capable of Telnet is
required (uses the Ethernet connection only) or a Terminal program, CIO-1/CIO-1A/CIO-CLA module, and a
computer with a serial interface is required. In both Terminal interface approaches, the computer used for
the update must have TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) server software installed.
To update via the Web GUI interface, Ethernet Connection to VPM-3 is required.
The CI-2 or UCI-3 Flash memory stores one application program file or one multi-application program file of any
size up to 8 Mbytes. When this download procedure is performed, the downloaded file overwrites any file
previously stored on the CI-2 or UCI-3 module.
Note:
100373-010 AR0
If an EPROM with a valid application file is installed on the CI-2 or UCI-3 module, the VPM-3 will not read
the application from the Flash memory but will use the application loaded on the EPROM.
To use the CI-2 or UCI-3 Flash memory, remove any EPROM device from the CI-2 or UCI-3.

TIP-2 Installation
Install the TIP-2 as required for your location. Refer to Figure 2-31 for installation dimensions. It is
recommended to locate the TIP-2 as close to the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 chassis as possible. This will provide
the best surge protection and track circuit performance.

I/O Module Cable Installation
Consult the Application Circuit Plan for the proper I/O slot to attach each cable. Attach each cable to the
proper connector receptacle on the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 personality modules. If the cable wires are not
already inserted into the header connectors, strip 3/8-inch ± 1/8-inch of insulation before inserting wires
into the connectors. Write the slot number on each cable's identification tag. The cables must be installed
before the I/O modules.
If the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 was received as part of a rack assembly, the I/O module cables may already be
installed and this step may be ignored. However, the Application Circuit Plan should be compared to
verify the position of each I/O module cable.

Rail Connections
Ensure that all connections within the track circuit have the minimum possible resistance. This is especially
true with regard to the bond wires which connect the rail ends together at each bolted track joint. For track
circuit lengths over 13,000 feet (3962m), welded rail should be used. For track circuits over 19,000 feet
(5791m) welded rail must be used.
The routing of track wires within the bungalow should be as short and direct as possible, especially for the
longer track circuits. For track circuit lengths over 18,000 feet (5486m) it is essential that 6 gauge wire be
used for all track wires, including the track wires within the bungalow. Alternatively, 10 gauge wire may be
used if the wires are doubled up.
If the operation of the track circuit proves to be unreliable the most likely causes are:
•
A poor electrical connection somewhere within the circuit. Possible causes are broken rail repairs and
missing bond wires.
•
A leakage path between the two rails at some point within the circuit. Some examples are shorted rail
gage plates and conditions of low ballast.
In both cases a close inspection by walking the track will help to pinpoint the problem.

VLD-C6S Battery Cable Supply Lengths
Each VLD-C6S module requires its own battery connection, separate from the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 system
battery connection. Either the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 system battery may be wired to each VLD personality
module or a separate lamp battery supply may be used. The VLD personality module will accept 12 AWG
for the battery connections. A maximum cable resistance of 0.0294 ohms is allowed. This is equivalent to 9
feet of dedicated 12 AWG wire between the VLD personality module and the lamp battery supply.

Lamp Wiring - VLD-R16S
Tables 2-5 through 2-7 indicate the maximum lamp wiring length for the conditions noted. The VLD-R16S
personality module accepts 12 AWG wire for the Lamp Output connections. To achieve the distances
noted, a maximum of 25 feet of 12 AWG wire (or a maximum of 0.0405 ohms resistance) may be used
between the personality module and the connection to the wire size indicated.
The distances noted can be achieved with either a dedicated lamp return (one lamp per return) or with a
common, single wire return for two lamps. In all cases, the lamp return is assumed to be the same distance
and wire size. The distances are governed primarily by a maximum of 2.0 VDC being allowed on a disabled
(off) lamp output induced by the other lamp of the pair on a common return.

VLD-R16S Battery Cable Supply Lengths
Each VLD-R16S module requires its own battery connection for lamp power separate from the
ElectroLogIXS battery connection. The VLD-R16S Personality module accepts two, 12 AWG battery
connections along with a neutral reference for each lamp bank.The VLD-R16S allows a battery connection
length of up to 25 feet of 12 AWG wire (a maximum battery connection resistance of 0.0405 ohms).
Attention must be given when using a power bus for distributing lamp power to the individual lamp bank
connections in installations that require a large number of lamps. The large current demand caused by
turning on multiple lamps simultaneously could result in the lamp power input voltage dropping below the
minimum 9.5 VDC ( and the lamp banks shut down) if the power bus is not sized to handle the current
demand.

Serial Point to Point Operation
WARNING
The CIO-1/CIO-1A, CIO-CLA, CIO-2/CIO-2A, CIO-2AB, CIO-3, CIO-MD/
CIO-MDA, CIO-PCA,and the VPM-3 Ethernet ports provide isolation
protection against Ground Faults. If the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 is powered from
Signal or Equipment battery, Ground Faults in external equipment attached
to the CIO-1/CIO-1A, CIO-CLA CIO-2/CIO-2A, CIO-2AB, CIO-3, CIO-MD
/CIO-MDA, CIO-PCA, or the VPM-3 Ethernet ports combined with a failure
of the isolation protection of the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 may be passed through
to the powering battery under certain failure conditions. Undetected Ground
Faults to Signal or Equipment battery may result in hazardous rail operation.
If connections to the CIO-1/CIO-1A, CIO-CLA, CIO-2/CIO-2A, CIO-2AB,
CIO-3, CIO-MD/CIO-MDA, CIO-PCA, or the VPM-3 Ethernet ports are
left unattended, Ground Fault testing must be performed after the connection
is established, and at FRA mandated intervals thereafter.
The ElectroLogIXS/EC5 supports Serial Point to Point vital communications using either the CIO-2/CIO-2A,
CIO-MD/CIO-MDA, or CIO-PCA modules. The CIO-2/CIO-2A module uses RS-232 signaling and is
suitable for communication networks that do not extend beyond the equipment housing. The
CIO-MD/CIO-MDA module uses RS-485 signaling and is suitable for networks that extend beyond the
equipment housing. When cabling extends outside of the equipment housing, the cable’s ground shield must
be tied to ground and appropriate surge protection should be provided. The ElectroLogIXS/EC5 provides two
slots that will each accept either a CIO-2/CIO-2A, CIO-MD/CIO-MDA, CIO-PCA, and CIO-3(EC5 only).

Serial Multi-Drop Operation
WARNING
When an ElectroLogIXS/EC5 vital remote link is configured for
anything other than point-to-point operation over a hard-wired serial
cable, configuration management must ensure that duplicate Local
Network IDs do not exist on that communications net. Examples of
communications nets include, but are not limited to:
· Multi-drop serial communications
· Local Area Networks (LANs)
· Wide Area Networks (WANs)
· Fiber-Optic backbones
· Radio communications
This includes devices that may belong to other railway agencies (e.g.
on radio links). Failure to ensure that there are no duplicate Local
Network IDs on a communications net could result in death or serious
injury. (See Appendix B for more detailed information)
An ElectroLogIXS/EC5 must not be configured with identical
Local/Remote Network ID pairs for different vital remote links, even if
those vital remote links are on different communications nets. If
duplicate Local/Remote Network ID pairs are used for redundancy,
the application/installation must ensure that only one of the duplicate
pairs is active/operational at a given time. Failure to ensure that there
are no duplicate Local/Remote Network ID pairs within an
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 or that redundant pairs cannot be active/
operational simultaneously could result in death or serious injury.
(See Volume Two, Appendix B for more detailed information)
When setting a vital remote link Local or Remote Network ID on an
ElectroLogIXS/EC5, use only the value supplied on the application
circuit plans. If this information is not available from the application
circuit plans, do not put that vital remote link into service until this is
corrected. Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury.
(See Appendix B for more detailed information)
The CIO-MD/CIO-MDA provides isolation protection against Ground
Faults. If the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 is powered from Signal or Equipment
battery, Ground Faults in external equipment attached to the
CIO-MD/CIO-MDA combined with a failure of the isolation protection
of the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 may be passed through to the powering
battery under certain failure conditions. Undetected Ground Faults to
Signal or Equipment battery may result in hazardous rail operation.
If connections to the CIO-MD/CIO-MDA are left unattended, Ground
Fault testing must be performed after the connection is established,
and at FRA mandated intervals thereafter.
The ElectroLogIXS/EC5 supports Serial Multi-Drop vital communications using the CIO-MD/CIO-MDA
module. Up to two CIO-MD/CIO-MDA modules can be installed in an ElectroLogIXS/EC5 and either or both
of them can be configured for Multi-Drop operation. In Multi-Drop mode, several devices can share a single
serial connection. One device on the bus must be the master device with all the others configured as slaves. The
master device controls the network and polls each slave in turn to allow them to transmit their data. Each
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 Multi-Drop port can be configured to operate as either the master or slave device on a
Multi-Drop network. The Multi-Drop network can be configured for synchronous or asynchronous operation.

ElectroLogIXS VLC and EC5
An example wiring diagram for a synchronous Serial Multi-Drop network consisting of ElectroLogIXS/EC5,
EC5s and/or VHLCs is shown below. If the synchronous network installation includes VHLCs, each VHLC
must include an RS-422/485 module and be configured for Multi-Drop operation. If the synchronous network
installation includes EC5s, each EC5 must include a CIO-MD module and be configured for Multi-Drop
synchronous operation.
The maximum end-to-end length for a multi-drop network should be less than 4000 feet. If the required length
of the network is greater than 4000 feet, an intermediate device (e.g. modem, repeater, radio, etc.) is required.
The network should only be terminated at the end-points and only if the baud-rate / network length combination
requires it. Terminations are not required if the bit-time used on the network is much greater than three times
the down-and-back propagation delay of the network wiring. Use the following calculation to determine if
termination is required:
1/ baud rate >> 3 x (2 x Cable Length in feet) x 1.01 x 10-9 seconds / foot
For example, to determine if termination is required for a 2000 ft network operating at 9600 baud:
Bit time is: 1/9600 = 104 usecs.
3 x Propagation delay is: 3 x (2 x 2000 ft) x (1.01 x 10-9) = 12.16 usecs.
104 usecs is >> 12.16 usecs; therefore, no termination is needed.
If termination at the network end-point CIO modules is needed, open the plastic cases of the
CIO-MD/CIO-MDA assemblies (using tool P/N 095968-000 to remove the latch if necessary) and place
jumpers (P/N 032384-000) across the connectors (W1, W2, W3, W5, W6, and W14) to activate the
terminations.

An example wiring diagram for an asynchronous Serial Multi-Drop network without hardware flow control
consisting of ElectroLogIXS/EC5 and/or EC5s is shown below. If the asynchronous network installation
includes EC5s, each EC5 must include a CIO-MD module and be configured for asynchronous Serial MultiDrop operation.

Ethernet Operation
WARNING
The VPM-3 Ethernet ports provide isolation protection against Ground Faults.
If the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 is powered from Signal or Equipment battery,
Ground Faults in external equipment attached to the VPM-3 Ethernet ports
combined with a failure of the isolation protection of the ElectroLogIXS/EC5
may be passed through to the powering battery under certain failure
conditions. Undetected Ground Faults to Signal or Equipment battery may
result in hazardous rail operation.
If connections to the VPM-3 Ethernet ports are left unattended, Ground Fault
testing must be performed after the connection is established, and at FRA
mandated intervals thereafter.
The ElectroLogIXS or EC5/ VPM-3 supports vital communication over either or both Ethernet connections
using IP / UDP (Internet Protocol / User Datagram Protocol). Vital communications over Ethernet can
occur simultaneously with vital communications on one or more serial interfaces and also simultaneously
with non-vital Ethernet comunications (Office and Web GUI communications). ElectroLogIXS or EC5/
VPM-3 supports 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX communication and auto-negotiates with the connected
device for speed selection.
The two Ethernet connections are available on the VPM-3 via the two, labeled 8P8C (referred to as an
RJ45) connections. Table 2-8 shows the standard, straight-through wiring connections for Ethernet. The
VPM-3 auto-detects straight versus crossover connection types so either cable type may be used.

The ElectroLogIXS/EC5 supports Serial Multi-Drop non vital communications using the CIO-MD/CIO-MDA
module. Up to two CIO-MD/CIO-MDA modules can be installed in an ElectroLogIXS/EC5 but only one can
configured for non vital Serial Multi-Drop operation. In Serial Multi-Drop mode, several devices can share a
single serial connection. One device on the bus must be the master device with all the others configured as
slaves. The master device controls the network and polls each slave in turn to allow them to transmit their data.
An ElectroLogIXS/EC5 non-vital Serial Multi-Drop port can operate only as an asynchronous slave device on
a Serial Multi-Drop network.
The CIO-MD/CIO-MDA module uses RS-485 signaling and is suitable for networks that extend beyond the
equipment housing. When cabling extends outside of the equipment housing, the cable’s ground shield must
be tied to ground and appropriate surge protection should be provided. An example of a wiring diagram for
an asynchronous non vital RS-485 Multi-Drop network interfacing to a 3 wire HAWK recorder interface is
shown below (see Figure 2-49).
The maximum end-to-end length for a multi-drop network should be less than 4000 feet. If the required length
of the network is greater than 4000 feet, an intermediate device (e.g. modem, repeater, radio, etc.) is required.
The network should only be terminated at the end-points and only if the baud-rate / network length combination
requires it. Terminations are not required if the bit-time used on the network is much greater than three times
the down-and-back propagation delay of the network wiring. Use the following calculation to determine if
termination is required:
1/ baud rate >> 3 x (2 x Cable Length in feet) x 1.01 x 10-9 seconds / foot
For example, to determine if termination is required for a 2000 ft network operating at 9600 baud:
Bit time is: 1/9600 = 104 usecs.
3 x Propagation delay is: 3 x (2 x 2000 ft) x (1.01 x 10-9) = 12.16 usecs.
104 usecs is >> 12.16 usecs; therefore, no termination is needed.
If termination at the network end-point CIO modules is needed, open the plastic cases of the
CIO-MD/CIO-MDA assemblies (using tool P/N 095968-000 to remove the latch if necessary) and place
jumpers (P/N 032384-000) across the connectors (W1, W2, W3, W5, W6, and W14) to activate the
terminations.

Track Circuit Setup
Recommended Guidelines
Track circuit adjustments for EC5 and ElectroLogIXS have been simplified to general recommendations.
These recommendations are for typical applications (ElectroLogIXS to ElectroLogIXS, ElectroLogIXS to
EC5, or ElectroLogIXS to EC4). In the event that block circumstances are significantly different than a
typical application, contact GETS GS Technical Services for further recommendations.
Transmitter adjustment recommendations have been modified to include losses that can result from track
wire lengths. The following procedure will address the means to make these calculations.
In general, the detection of trains in a block operates best when the Receive Reference value is about 1/3
the actual receive current. This general rule for 1/3 the receive current has some flexibility in setting the
Receive Reference. Setting the Transmit Voltage too high can cause too much receive current at the other
end of the block, which can result in the distortion of vital code.
Tables 2-10 and 2-11 specify the transmitter and receiver adjustments to be used for each track circuit length.
Table 2-10 is used for ElectroLogIXS to EC5 or ElectroLogIXS applications; Table 2-9 is used for track
circuits with an ElectroLogIXS/EC5 at one end and an EC4 at the other. These tables are designed to
provide reliable operation with ballast resistance as low as 3 ohms per one thousand feet of track. Train
presence will be detected when the rail-to-rail shunt resistance is .06 ohms or less. For operation with
ballast resistance less than 3 ohms, for train detection with greater than .06 ohm shunt resistance, or for
installations where track wire length must exceed the limits shown in Table 2-9, contact GETSGS. For
reliable and safe operation the following recommendations should be observed:
2-84
•
Ensure that all connections within the track circuit have the minimum possible resistance. This is
especially true with regard to the bond wires which connect the rail ends together at each bolted track
joint. For track circuit lengths over 13,000 feet (3962m) it is highly recommended that welded rail be
used. For track circuits over 19,000 feet (5791m) it is imperative that welded rail be used.
•
The routing of track wires within the bungalow should be as short and direct as possible, especially for
the longer track circuits. For track circuits over 18,000 feet (5486.4m) it is essential that 6 gauge wire
be used for all track wires, including the track wires within the bungalow. Alternatively, 10 gauge wire
may be used if the wires are doubled up.
•
After any track circuit adjustment, standard railroad, FRA, and/or other regulatory agency procedures
should be performed to test the shunting sensitivity of the track with a 0.06 ohm shunt (see FRA
236.56). Shunting sensitivity tests should be performed under optimum ballast conditions. If optimum
ballast conditions do not exist, a follow-up test should be performed to insure proper shunting
sensitivity of the track with a 0.06 ohm shunt during optimum ballast conditions. Adjustments to the
track circuit settings are stored in the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 configuration log. GETSGS recommends
that a log be kept including the condition of the ballast when adjustments are made to the track circuit.

Installation
If the operation of the track circuit proves to be unreliable the most likely causes are:
1.
A poor electrical connection somewhere within the circuit. Possible causes are broken rail repairs and
missing bond wires.
2.
A leakage path between the two rails at some point within the circuit. Some examples are rail gauge
plates and salt in the ballast at grade crossings.
In both cases a close inspection by walking the track will help to pinpoint the problem. If the problem
cannot be resolved by correcting the track condition then the transmitter and receiver settings may be
changed by entering values from the adjustment table for a track circuit which is one thousand or two
thousand feet longer than the actual length. Any adjustment outside of this range may compromise the
ability to detect train presence and broken rail, therefore the user must assume full responsibility for the
safety implications.
Setup for ElectroLogIXS to ElectroLogIXS or ElectroLogIXS to EC5
Step 1. Estimating the Track Wire Length
The impedance of the track wire from each TIP-2 to the rail can affect the performance of the Track Circuit.
The wire length should be converted to an approximate additional block distance and will be needed to
determine the initial track transmitter voltage setting. Use the following procedure to estimate total track
circuit length.
Note:
That the track circuit wire run is the total of both ends of the block (based on using No. 6 Copper
wire twisted pair – both wires considered as a single length together).
Measure the track circuit wire run from the instrument housing to the track feed point in feet, then multiply
the resulting total by 10.
Example: If the track wire from the TIP-2 to the connection at the rail is 100 feet (30m) at one end of the
block and 75 feet (23m) at the other end of the block, add 100 (30m) to 75 (23m) to get a total of 175
(53m). Multiply 175 (53m) by 10 to get 1750 feet (533m) as the track wire length. This 1750 feet
(533m)will be added to the actual block length in Step 2 to determine the total circuit length.
Step 2. Determine the Total Track Circuit Length
Add the additional track length to the actual block length to get the total track circuit length.
Example: If additional track wire length is 1750 feet (533m) (as computed in Step 1) and the actual block
length is 7550 feet (2301m), then the total track circuit length is 1750 (533m) + 7550 (2301m) = 9300 feet
(2835m). Always round this value up to the nearest 1000-foot (305m) increment. (9300 ft rounds up to
10,000 ft)
Step 3. Set the Initial Receive Reference Value
As an initial setting, set the VTI-2Ss at each end of the block Receive Reference value to 0.5 A. This will
assure that codes will be transmitted and received during the setup process.
Step 4. Set the Initial Transmit Voltage
Set the Initial Transmit Voltage to the value listed in Table 2-10 for the VTI-2Ss at each end of the block.
Remember to use the Total Track Circuit Length value computed in Step 2.

Step 5. Read the Receive Current
Read the Receive Current on the CDU. The value should be within the range listed in Expected Receive
Current on Table 2-10.
If the value that is read on the CDU for the Receive Current is lower than the Low Current Reading, review
the installation for any faulty wiring connections or other conditions that can result in the lower reading. If
all connections have been checked and are within the scope of good signaling practices, contact GETS
Global Signaling Field Support for further assistance.
If the value that is read on the CDU for the Receive Current is within the Low and High range, go to Step 6.
If the value that is read on the CDU for the Receive Current is above the High range, reduce the Transmit
Voltage by 0.5 VDC. If the Receive Current is now within the Low and High range proceed to Step 6. If it
is still above the High range value, contact GETS Global Signaling Field Support.
Step 6. Refining the Track Transmitter and Receive Reference Values
Final adjustments to the track circuit will largely depend on the current state of the ballast leakage
conditions.
If the ballast conditions are currently wetter than normal ballast conditions, go Step 6a.
If the ballast conditions are normal, that is, typical ballast conditions for the area, then go to Step 6b.
If the ballast conditions are currently dry, that is, it is drier than normal ballast conditions, then go to Step
6c.

Setup for ElectroLogIXS/EC5 to EC4
Steps 1 to 3. Method for Determining total Track Circuit Length
Use the same method for determining total track circuit length as previously noted for configuring an
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 to ElectroLogIXS or EC5.
Step 4. Set the Initial Transmit Voltage at the ElectroLogIXS/EC5
Using the transmit voltage setting in Table 2-11 ElectroLogIXS/EC5 Recommended Settings, look up the initial
transmit voltage to set for Track Circuit Transmitter at the ElectroLogIXS/EC5. Remember to use the Total
Track Circuit Length value computed in Step 2.
Step 4A. Determine and Set the 2R and 7K at the EC4
Using Table 2-11 EC4 Recommended settings, look up the Initial values to set for the VTI transmitter in the
EC4. Remember to use the Total Track Circuit Length value computed in Step 2. Use the standard procedure to
adjust the 7K module as described in the EC4 manual.
Step 5. Read the Receive Current at the ElectroLogIXS/EC5
Read the Receive Current on the CDU. The value should be within the range listed in Expected Receive
Current on Table 2-11.
If the value that is read on the CDU for the Receive Current is lower than the Low Current Reading, review the
installation for any faulty wiring connections or other conditions that can result in the lower reading. If all
connections have been checked and are within the scope of good signaling practices, contact GETS Global
Signaling Field Support for further assistance.
If the value that is read on the CDU for the Receive Current is within the Low and High range, go to Step 6.
If the value that is read on the CDU for the Receive Current is above the High range, reduce the EC4
Transmit Voltage by moving the tap on the VTI transmitter to the next lower setting (i.e. 3=high, 2=medium,
1=low). If the Receive Current is now within the Low and High range proceed to Step 6. If it is still above
the High range value, contact GETS Global Signaling Field Support.

Note:
This table is based on a nominal .06-ohm shunt sensitivity with minimum 3-ohm ballast
and clean rail. While longer or shorter blocks and/or track circuit wire combinations
may be possible depending on worst-case ballast conditions and/or track wire length,
safe operation for any block length must be verified by placing a calibrated shunt across
the rails at the receiving end of the block during the highest resistance ballast conditions.
Adjustments should be verified following any major changes to ballast and periodically
in accordance with railroad procedures.

Lamp Voltage Setup
There are two methods for setting the VLD-C6S lamp drive voltage; using the Manual Lamp Set-up Mode or
the Automatic Lamp Setup Mode. The Manual Lamp Setup Mode allows the user to adjust the lamp drive
voltages and the Automated Lamp Setup Mode allows the system to automatically calculate the actual output
voltage based on a desired voltage at the lamp. Each setup mode is selected using the CDU-1. Refer to Chapter
5 - CDU Program for instructions on using the CDU-1 to set-up the lamps.
The VLD-R16S lamp output voltage is set only by the voltage value of the lamp power input. No adjustment
or set-up is required of the module itself.
Manual Lamp Setup (VLD-C6S)
The Manual Lamp Setup Mode provides the ability to adjust the lamp voltages on a bank of three lamps
residing on a VLD-C6S Module.
The Manual Lamp Setup Menu is selected using the CDU-1. When this mode is entered, the CDU-1 will
display the lamp output voltage, for the specific bank being setup. It should be noted that the bank's output
voltages are measured at the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 output, not at the lamp.
When the user inputs the new output voltage the system prompts the user to confirm the new value. After
confirmation, the system stores the new output value and sets the output voltage accordingly. Adjust the lamp
voltages to railroad specified levels.
1.
Using the CDU-1 and Figure 5-4 as a guide, select Lamp Maintenance from the LAMPS Menu.
2.
Press the Down Arrow Button. Using the Figure 5-22 as a guide, select Setup/Test Slot 1 VLD-C6S .
3.
Press the Down Arrow Button to select Lamp Manual Setup.
4.
Press the Down Arrow Button. The CDU-1 displays the lamp drive voltage for the selected bank.
5.
Using the Right and Left Arrow Buttons, select the desired lamp.
6.
Press the Enter Button. The CDU-1 displays the current lamp voltage (for the selected lamp bank) and
prompt for a new voltage.
New Voltage >
7.
Use the Alphanumeric Buttons to enter the new lamp voltage.
8.
Press the Enter Button. The CDU-1 will display a confirm message
Confirm ***** >
9.
To confirm the new voltage, enter the 1-5 digit, number listed in the confirm message. Press the Enter
Button. The new lamp drive voltage is now placed into system memory.
10. Repeat the process until both bank voltages have been set.
Note:
The voltage selected, applies to all 3 lamps in the bank.
11. If more than one VLD-C6S Module is installed in the system, repeat the procedure for each additional
VLD-C6S Module.
12. With the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 turned On, and the lamps lit, check the voltage at the lamp head(s).

Automated Lamp Setup (VLD-C6S)
The Automated Setup Mode allows the system to automatically calculate the actual output voltage of the VLDC6S based on a desired voltage at the lamp.
As soon as the user attempts to enter the Automated Setup Mode, the executable software verifies that it has
permission to enter that mode based on Lamp Setup Grant status.
If permission to enter the Automated Setup Mode is denied, a message is displayed on the CDU-1 informing
the user that this mode can not be entered at the present time. This could be because of train position or the fact
that an equation was never written to allow the Lamp Setup Grant status to go True.
If permission to enter the Automated Setup Mode is granted, the executive software sets the Lamp Normal
Mode status to False and the previously selected lamp voltage, for each of the lamp output driver statuses. The
user selects which lamp output to perform the Automated Setup on. The CDU-1 then prompts the user for a
new lamp voltage.
When the user inputs the new desired lamp voltage at the lamp, the system has the user verify the change to
the lamp voltage. Once verified, the system will start the automated setup procedure. The system will turn off
all the lamps in the bank of the VLD-C6S that was selected for the setup for approximately 30 seconds. The
system will illuminate each lamp in the bank for about 1 second with a 5 second off-time between each lamp.
After the illuminating portion of the setup, the system calculates the voltage drop to the lamp and adjusts the
lamp output voltage for the desired voltage to be present at the lamp. This takes another 30 seconds.
The total setup time is approximately 90 seconds. If during the setup procedure the clear aspect is dropped, the
procedure will be cut short. If the procedure is cut short, the system will hold the signals in that bank dark for
approximately 30 seconds before returning to normal operation.
In addition, an entry is placed in the user configuration log stating that the lamp voltage was changed. The new
voltage at the lamp is displayed on the CDU-1 and the executable software sets the Lamp Normal Mode status
back to True.
The executable software continuously monitors the Lamp Setup Enable status, to determine if the permission
has been overridden in the middle of the Automated Setup Mode. This will result in the executable software
returning to the previous lamp output voltage and resuming normal lamp operation within 30 seconds. In the
case of the Automatic Setup Mode being cut short the system will display a CDU-1 alarm message informing
the user that the Automated Setup algorithm was cut short due to the application.
Adjust the lamp voltages to railroad specified levels.
1.
Using the CDU-1, select Lamp Maintenance from the LAMPS Menu.
2.
Press the Down Arrow Button. Using the Figure 5-22 as a guide, select Setup/Test Slot 1VLD-C6S.
3.
Press the Down Arrow Button to select Lamp Automated Setup.
Note:

If “Access Denied” is displayed on the CDU-1, the Automated Setup Mode cannot be entered at this
time. This could be due to the presence of trains or some other condition defined in the application
equations.
4.
Press the Down Arrow Button. The CDU-1 displays the lamp drive voltage for selected output.

VLD-C6S Module.
12. With the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 turned On, and the lamps lit, check the voltage at the lamp head(s).
If during the setup procedure the Lamp Setup Grant is set to False, i.e., the clear aspect is dropped, the
procedure will be cut short. If the procedure is cut short, the system will hold the signals in that bank dark for
approximately 30 seconds before returning to normal operation.
Timers Setup
Entered Timer Values are stored in an EEPROM on the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 Backplane. During normal
operation, these stored values are used instead of the default timer values contained in the Application EPROM
on the CI or UCI-3 Module. If the stored timer values become corrupted, the VPM will use the application
default values and will attempt to re-write these default values to the backplane. This behavior occurs for vital
timers (VPM-2/VPM-2+) and both the vital and non-vital timers (VPM-3).
When a vital application is selected / loaded, the Vital Timer values are set to their application defined defaults
values. The Non-Vital Timers (VPM-3) retain the previous values if the values are within the application
defined range for an individual timer.

Vital Configuration Setup
Entered Vital Configuration Settings are stored in an EEPROM on the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 Backplane. During
normal operation, these values are used instead of the default Vital Configuration Settings stored in Application
EPROM on the CI or UCI-3 Module. If the Vital Configuration Settings stored on the Backplane become
corrupted, the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 will use the application default values and attempt to re-write the Vital
Configuration Settings to EEPROM on the Backplane. If the Application EPROM is replaced, the Vital
Configuration Setting must be checked against those in the Application Circuit Plan. The Vital Configuration
Settings are set to the application default value when a vital application is selected / loaded.
There are a total of 32 vital configuration settings that can be configured for application specific operations.
Refer to Chapter 5 - CDU Program for instructions on using the CDU-1 to setup the Vital Configuration and

ElectroLogIXS VLC and EC5
Vital Communication Setup
Message Authentication Code (MAC) Keys
The ElectroLogIXS or EC5/VPM-3 supports an optional MAC protection for each communication link. Each
vital remote link has an associated Link Key that is used to generate the MAC for messages going in both
directions on that link. The MAC is a function of the remote Link Key and the vital data within the message.
It provides a high level of assurance that a message has not been corrupted either accidentally or intentionally
and that the message was actually sent by the expected remote system.
The application designer chooses the Link Keys when the application is being created. The complete set of 32
Link Keys is stored in a Key Vault file. This encrypted file is separate from the application EPROM. It is
uploaded through either the system diagnostic port or the Web GUI (Chapter 2, Vital General Communication
Setup), and it is stored in encrypted form in non-volatile memory on the system backplane.
The de-encryption key for the Key Vault file is called the Site Specific Key. The Site Specific Key is stored
in the application EPROM, and is chosen by the application designer when the application is created.
The layering and separation of keys allows for more flexible management of key updates. For instance, if a
Link Key needs to be changed, a new Key Vault can be generated that contains the new Link Key and that is
encrypted with the same Site Specific Key as the old Key Vault File. The new Key Vault can then be uploaded
to the system and put into service without requiring a change to the application. In another example, if a Site
Specific Key needs to be changed, a new application containing the new Site Specific Key and a new Key Vault
file encrypted with the new Site Specific Key but containing the old Link Keys can be generated and installed
on the affected system without requiring changes on any connected remote systems.
The ElectroLogIXS or EC5/VPM-3 supports an in-service Link Key switchover procedure based on allowing
two sets of Link Keys to be used for a short switching period. This allows for coordination of Link Key changes
on each link and the avoidance of taking links down as a result of Link Key changes.

Key Vault Update Procedure
•
•
•
•
Load a new MAC Vault file/keys through either the system diagnostic port or the Web GUI on each
system.
Activate the new keys by enabling the MAC Key Switchover on each system. This allows the systems
to accept incoming messages containing MACs generated with the Link Keys from either the new or
the pre-existing Key Vault. This also starts the MMST timer.
In the next phase, each link transitions to sending and accepting received messages that contain MACs
generated only with the new Link Key for that link. A link can be switched to sending messages using
the new Link Key in one of two ways:
• Manually, set the option for MAC ‘Use New Link Key’ to ‘Yes’ via the CDU or Web GUI,
for a given remote link.
• Automatically, when a message is received on that link that contains a MAC generated with
the new Link Key.
Once a message is received on a link that contains a MAC generated with the new Link Key, messages
containing MACs generated with the pre-existing Link Key will no longer be accepted on that link.
When the MMST expires, received messages on all links will only be accepted if they contain a MAC
generated with the new Link Keys, and all outgoing messages on all links will be sent with MACs
generated with the new Link Keys.
Vital General Communication Setup
The Vital General Communication setup provides for loading the MAC Key Vault file into the ElectroLogIXS
or EC5/VPM-3 system. The MAC Key Vault file is uploaded through either the system diagnostic port (Volume
Two, Chapter 7, Remote Config MAC) or the Web GUI (Volume Two, Figure 6-77, Configuration - General
Remote).
The Vital General Communication setup interface also provides the following configuration parameters, which
can be configured through the CDU (Figure 5-60, Vital Remote Port Menu - Serial Port, Figure 5-61, Vital
Remote Port Menu - Ethernet Port) or the Web GUI (Volume Two, Figure 6-77, Configuration - General
Remote):
•
•
•
•
•
MAC Switchover Time (MMST or Maximum MAC Switchover Time). This is the maximum amount
of time that messages will be accepted with MACs generated from either the new or the pre-existing
MAC keys once MAC key switchover is enabled. Acceptable values range from 1 second to 2 hours.
Switchover Enable. Once a new MAC Key Vault is loaded, switchover can be enabled. This starts
the switchover timer that runs for ‘MAC Switchover Time’ period of time. This allows the system
to accept incoming vital remote messages containing MACs generated with the Link Keys from either
the newly loaded or the pre-existing Key Vault.
Switchover Restart. This restarts the switchover timer. This is provided if switchover has been
enabled.
Switchover Cancel. This stops the switchover in progress. This is provided if switchover has been
enabled.
Delete loaded Key Vault. This deletes the Key Vault that was last loaded. This is provided if a new
MAC Key Vault has been loaded and switchover is not enabled.
Vital Serial Communication Setup
The Vital Serial Communication Setup involves setting the following parameters for each serial port:
•
•
100373-010 AR0
Local Address – the vital remote local address. Allowed values range from 0 to 63.

Ground Fault Detector Setup
The Ground Fault Detector function allows the user to specify the requirements for a ground fault alarm on each
battery monitored. Specifically, the user can set:
•
ground fault threshold - the leakage resistance value between either battery pole (+ or -) and earth
ground below which is considered a ground fault
•
ground fault time - the amount of time that the ground fault condition must be present before alarming
the presence of a ground fault
The ElectroLogIXS system will monitor the ElectroLogIXS chassis battery for ground faults whenever a GFD-1
module is present. The GFD-1 front panel connector provides ElectroLogIXS the ability to monitor two
additional batteries for ground faults, as well as the input for the earth ground reference.
Important: The earth ground connection to the GFD module must be removed prior to maintenance
testing for grounds. If the earth ground connection is not removed, ground testing will likely
fail.
Battery Connections
1.
The ElectroLogIXS chassis battery is monitored for ground faults when a GFD-1 module is installed in
ElectroLogIXS slot 10. The earth ground reference should be connected to pin 7 of the GFD-1 front panel
connector (refer to Figures 1-29 and 1-30). Wire size should be between 14 AWG and 18 AWG. The
length of the earth ground wire should be kept as short as practical with a goal of less than 10 feet.
2.
Two additional batteries, labeled B2 and B3 on the GFD-1 fault LEDs and input connector, can also be
monitored for ground faults if connected. B2 connections for + and - poles go to GFD-1 connector pins
1 and 2 respectively. B3 + and - connects similarly to pins 4 and 5, respectively. Wire gauge and length
for the B2 and B3 connections to the GFD-1 module should follow the recommendations for the earth
ground wire given above.
Ground Fault Monitoring Setup
1.
Refer to the Ground Fault Detector CDU-1 menus in Chapter 5 - CDU Program as a guide through this
setup process. Find the GROUND FAULT DETECT menu on the top level CDU-1 menu structure.
2.
Press the Down Arrow key. The CDU-1 will display:

The default name for the ElectroLogIXS chassis battery is “Battery 1" but may be changed by selecting
the Enter button from this page. If done, this action will produce the display:
Battery 1
Name > __
4.
A name consisting of upper and lower case letters, numbers, and spaces may be entered for the battery
using the CDU-1 keypad. The keypad keys, with the exception of numbers 1 and 0, have letters assigned
to them similar to a telephone keypad. The order in which the characters appear on the display when the
key is repeatedly pressed are uppercase letters (in alphabetical order), lowercase letters (in alphabetical
order), and then the number of that key. For example, repeated selection of the “2" key would produce the
following display of characters: A, B, C, a, b, c, 2, A, B, etc. The scroll right key moves to the next
character in the name. The enter the name “Chassis” for battery B1 the following sequence of keystrokes
would be made from the B1 name menu.

Chapter 3 – Maintenance
Introduction
This chapter contains maintenance procedures for preforming maintenance activities for the
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 system.
WARNING
After performing any maintenance or system enhancements on the
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 unit, adequate testing must be performed to detect
any errors related to any adjustments made to the system. The tests
should be performed before the unit is returned to service and in
accordance with standard railroad, FRA, and/or other regulatory
agency rules. This should include visual inspection of vital parameter
values. Failure to adequately test the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 unit
after routine or preventive maintenance could result in death or
serious injury.
Railroad Configuration Management Procedures must ensure that all
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 units are configured with the proper revisions of
modules and firmware (application, PTC, and executive) and that
updates are completed in a timely manner when made available by
GE Transportation Systems Global Signaling. Operating with
incorrect firmware may result in death or serious injury. Timely is
defined as without undue delay per 49 CFR 236.1023(j).
Railroad Configuration Management Procedures must ensure that the
proper values are set for each vital parameter, vital timer, vital
configuration setting (vital soft switches), PTC applicability setting,
PTC debounce time, PTC WIU address, and vital remote parameter in
their ElectroLogIXS/EC5 units. Incorrect settings may result in death
or serious injury.
Visual Inspection
1.
Inspect TIP-2 (Track Inductor Panel) for burnt or damaged components. Replace damaged components
as necessary.
2.
Inspect TIP-2 wiring for cut, nicked, or bare wires. Repair as necessary.
3.
Inspect ElectroLogIXS/EC5 Chassis and modules for burnt or damaged components.
4.
Inspect ElectroLogIXS/EC5 wiring for cut nicked, or bare wires. Repair as necessary.

ElectroLogIXS VLC and EC5
Maintenance Procedures Using the CDU or Web GUI
When entering vital information (track setup parameters, vital configuration settings, etc.) on the CDU-1,
the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 prompts the user for a confirmation number. The confirmation number is a 1 to 5
digit number that is entered to confirm that the new value matches the intended value. If the new value
does not match the intended value, press the CANCEL Button and re-enter the value. If the new value is
correct, press the ENTER Button.
WARNING
When entering information on the CDU-1 or the Web GUI that
requires confirmation verify that the new value redisplayed by the
system matches the intended value. Confirmation of a incorrect value
could result in a less restrictive condition which could cause death or
serious injury.
After submitting vital information via the Web GUI, the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 prompts the user to confirm
the values entered to ensure that the new value matches the intended value. If the new value does not match
the intended value, select "Cancel" and re-enter the value(s). If the new value is correct, press "Confirm".
Track Circuit Adjustment
Important: To provide reliable operation, GETSGS recommends routine inspection of track circuit
conditions.
Refer to Chapter 2 - Installation for complete details on Track Circuit adjustment.
WARNING
Improper adjustments or maintenance to track circuits could result in
death or serious injury.
After any track circuit adjustment, standard railroad, FRA, and/or other
regulatory agency procedures should be performed to test the
shunting sensitivity of the track with a 0.06 ohm shunt (see FRA
236.56).
Shunting sensitivity tests should be performed under optimum ballast
conditions. If optimum ballast conditions do not exist, a follow-up test
should be performed to insure proper shunting sensitivity of the track
with a 0.06 ohm shunt during optimum ballast conditions.
Adjustments to the track circuit settings are stored in the
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 configuration log. GETSGS recommends that a
log be kept including the condition of the ballast when adjustments are
made to the track circuit.
WARNING Proper track circuit adjustment and operation should always be
validated through track circuit shunt testing.

Maintenance
Lamp Voltage Setup
Refer to Chapter 2 - Installation for complete details on Manual and Automatic Lamp Voltage Setup for
the VLD-C6S.
Lamp Test Mode
The Lamp Test Mode is a diagnostic mode that allows the user to apply an output to a selected lamp for
troubleshooting purposes. Refer to Chapter 5 - CDU Program for details of the Lamp Test Mode.
The user is able to select the Lamp Test Mode using the CDU-1. As soon as the user attempts to enter the
Lamp Test Mode, the executable software verifies that it has permission to enter that mode based on Lamp
Setup Grant status.
If permission to enter the Lamp Test Mode is denied, a message is displayed on the CDU-1 informing the
user that access is denied. This could be because of train position or the fact that an equation was never
written to allow the Lamp Setup Grant (VLD-C6S) or Lamp Grant Bank 1 (2) (VLD-R16S) status to go
True.
If permission to enter the Lamp Test Mode is granted and the user confirms entry, the system sets the input
status Lamp Normal Mode to False to indicate that the Lamp Test Mode is entered. The system displays the
lamp outputs by their status names with the current on/off state of each output. The user may select which
lamp output to perform the Lamp Test on.
When the system exits the Lamp Test Mode, it takes about 30 seconds to display valid aspects.
Setting Battery Alarm Values
The Battery Alarm Values are set using the CDU-1 and scrolling through the available menu options. Refer
to Chapter 2 - Installation for setup.
Selecting Office Port Protocol
The Office Port Protocol is set using the CDU-1 and scrolling through the available menu options.
Refer to Chapter 2 - Installation for procedures to set Office Port Protocol.

Unless specifically stated in the module description, I/O modules
should be replaced without power applied to the system. Refer to the
description of each module to determine if it can be replaced with
power applied. Place the Power Switch in the OFF position before
removing or installing any module that is not hot swappable.
Supply Battery
Low supply battery levels will cause symptoms of many other failures in the ElectroLogIXS/EC5. Before
troubleshooting any failures, check the 12.0 VDC battery supply voltage.
1.
Using Figure 4-3/4-4 as a guide, check the input voltage across the B and N terminals. Verify input
voltages are between 9.5 and 16.5 VDC. If input voltage is not within tolerance, change system battery.
2.
Set the meter to read AC voltage.
3.
Measure the AC voltage across the voltage across the B and N terminals. Verify the voltage is less than
1 VAC.

Track Circuit Troubleshooting
The ElectroLogIXS/EC5 contains a Test Mode to aid in troubleshooting track circuits. The Transmit Test
Mode interferes with normal track circuit operation by providing a steady one volt DC output rather than
the normal pulse coded output. The Receive Test Mode disables all outputs forcing the unit to remain in
constant receive mode.
There are two methods for using the Test Mode. Both methods should be considered as supplemental
troubleshooting aids, the primary method being a close visual inspection by walking the track circuit.
Track Circuit Testing Using Transmit Mode Only
Overview
In this method the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 at one end of the track circuit is placed in Transmit Mode, while the
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 at the other end of the track circuit continues to transmit the normal pulse coded signal.
The equivalent circuit is shown in Figure 4-5.
Figure 4-5, Track Circuit Setup.
A DC ammeter is connected between the two rails at various points along the track circuit and the current is
measured. As the measurement point passes over the fault condition, the current changes from a steady
reading to a pulsed reading. For example, in Figure 4-5 the current measured at point A would be steady
while the reading at point B would be pulsed. Although the fault condition is depicted as an open circuit in
the figure, this is the same behavior would be observed for a rail-to-rail short.
This method is best suited for locating drastic faults, such as a complete open circuit or a dead short. The
primary advantage of this method is that only one end of the track circuit needs to be placed in Test Mode,
eliminating the need to drive to the other end of the track circuit.
Procedure
4-6
1.
Check the cartridge fuse on the TIP-2.
2.
Check the automotive style fuse on the TIP-2
3.
Check the TIP-2 to rail connections.
4.
One way to trace an open circuit on an ElectroLogIXS/EC5 track circuit is to walk the track with an
analog voltmeter.

Troubleshooting
5.
Use the meter on the track as if the track was a simple track circuit. Observe the correct rail polarity.
Note:
The ElectroLogIXS/EC5 track circuit has a transmitter at both ends. This means that there will be
voltage at each side of the open circuit. One transmitter should be isolated from the rails.
6.
Isolate the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 at one end of the track circuit by opening the outgoing track terminals
on the TIP-2.
7.
Set the meter to a low voltage setting (approximately 3 V full scale deflection).
8.
When the voltage is present, the meter will follow the DC pulses. The actual voltage level received is
not important.
9.
The pulses will be present from the end that has the transmitter connected. The pulses will disappear
once the break has been passed.
10.
Once the open circuit has been located, make the repair.
11.
Reconnect the transmitter on the ElectroLogIXS/EC5.
12.
Recheck the receive current.
Track Circuit Troubleshooting Using Transmit and Receive Mode
Overview
In this method the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 at one end of the track circuit is placed in Transmit Test Mode, while
the other end of the track circuit is placed in Receive Test Mode. The equivalent circuit is shown in Figure 46.
Figure 4-6, Track Circuit Setup.
A DC ammeter is connected between the two rails at various points along the track circuit. As the
measurement point passes over the fault condition, the current reading drops suddenly. Figure 4-7 illustrates
how the measured current varies with location along the track circuit.

Although the fault condition has been depicted as a high rail resistance, this same behavior would be
observed for a rail-to-rail leakage path.
Procedure
1.
Turn off the track circuit at one end.
2.
Set a Simpson 260 (or equivalent meter) to the 500 mA scale. Set a Simpson TS-111 to the 300 mA
scale.
3.
Connect track circuit as shown in Figure 4-6.
4.
Place a short across the leads to verify that you have full meter deflection.
5.
Walk a short distance on the track. Place one meter lead on each rail.
6.
Meter should show full scale deflection.
7.
Walk further down the track. Place one meter lead on each rail.
8.
Meter should read full scale deflection.
9.
Continue walking and checking until you do not get a full meter deflection. The broken rail lies
between the last point that you got full scale deflection and the place where you had partial meter
deflection.
10.
When you have located the broken rail, make the repair.
11.
Turn off the meter.
Note:
4-8
Reset the meter to the voltage scale.

Troubleshooting
Lamp Test Mode
The Lamp Test Mode is a diagnostic mode that allows the user to apply an output to a selected lamp for
troubleshooting purposes. The application grants permission to enter this mode by setting the Lamp Setup
Grant status to True (VLD-C6S) or the Lamp Grant Bank 1, Lamp Grant Bank 2 to True (VLD-R16S). The
application may be written to allow the system to enter the Lamp Test Mode only when no trains are
present. Refer to Chapter 5 - CDU Program for details of the Lamp Test Mode.
The user is able to select the Lamp Test Mode using the CDU-1. As soon as the user attempts to enter the
Lamp Test Mode, the executable software verifies that it has permission to enter that mode based on Lamp
Setup Grant/Lamp Grant Bank status.
If permission to enter the Lamp Test Mode is denied, a message is displayed on the CDU-1 informing the
user that access is denied. This could be because of train position or the fact that an equation was never
written to allow the Lamp Setup Grant/Lamp Grant Bank status to go True.
If permission to enter the Lamp Test Mode is granted and the user confirms entry, the system sets the input
status Lamp Normal Mode to False to indicate that the Lamp Test Mode is entered. The system displays the
lamp outputs by their status names with the current on/off state of each output. The user may select which
lamp output to perform the Lamp Test on.
When the system exits the Lamp Test Mode, it may take about 30 seconds to display valid aspects.

CDU Program
Chapter 5 – CDU Program
Control/Display Unit
The CDU-1 (Control Display Unit) provides an interface between the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 system and the user.
The CDU-1 contains a 40 character display, a 16 button keypad, and two system indicators (HEALTH and
5V PWR). The 40 character display provides a visual indication of system status and the keypad allows for
easy access to system setup, maintenance, and diagnostic utilities.
Figure 5-1, The Control Display/Unit.
The CDU-1 status indicators provide a visual indication of system status. The HEALTH LED is illuminated
when the system’s CPUs are communicating and operating normally. The HEALTH LED will be
extinguished during system resets or when a CPU is locked up. The 5V PWR LED illuminates when the
CPS (Central Power Supply Module) output is within tolerance.
Keypad Functions
The Keypad is divided into three groups; 10 alphanumeric keys marked ‘0’ through ‘9' and ‘A’ through ‘Z’,
two keys marked ‘CANCEL’ and ‘ENTER’, and four directional arrow keys marked with ‘Y’, ‘Z’, ‘[’,
and ‘\’.
Numeric Keys
Numeric keys are used for Boolean inputs (e.g., True/False or On/Off), numeric inputs (e.g., to change track
voltage, track current), and character inputs (e.g., alphanumeric serial numbers). For menus expecting
Boolean inputs, the ‘0’ key selects the negative condition (False or Off) and the ‘1’ key selects the positive
condition (True or On). For menus expecting numeric inputs, a key’s numeric value is entered and the
cursor automatically moves left one position after each key press. For menus expecting character inputs,
characters are selected by pressing a multiple times until the desired character is displayed and then
pressing the right arrow key to advance to the next character. The character selection sequence for each key
is shown below.

Arrow Keys
As long as the system is in the Directional Mode the arrow keys can be used to navigate through the menu
tree. Pressing the Right Arrow key displays the next menu item to the right (the menu will loop around to
the first menu of the same level if the last menu is in the display). Pressing the Left Arrow key displays the
next menu to the left. Pressing the Down Arrow key displays the menu of the next lower level menu item
unless the lowest level is currently displayed in which case, the menu will loop to the top of the menu.
Pressing the Up Arrow key displays the menu of the next higher level item. If the highest level menu item
is currently displayed, the Up Arrow key is disabled.
Pressing the Right and Left Arrow keys simultaneously activates the “Local Home” that allows the user to
jump to the Functional Heading for the menu being displayed.
Pressing the Up and Down Arrow keys simultaneously activates the “Global Home” that allows the user to
jump to the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 Home Menu.

Track Transmitter and Track Receiver parameters entered through the CDU-1 are stored in an EEPROM on
the Backplane. During normal ElectroLogIXS/EC5 operation, these values are used. If the Track Transmitter
and Track Receiver parameters stored on the Backplane become corrupted, the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 will set
the track parameters to extreme safe values. This will generate a configuration log entry. When the track
parameters are set to the extreme safe values, the tracks may not function and will need to be set again.

Lamp Quick Status Home Menu
If VLD modules are installed, the Lamp Detection Slot# and Aspect Slot# quick status menus are available.
The Lamp Detection Slot# menu depicts a specific VLD module and shows the status of the lamps that are
defined in the application. A “T” indicates the lamp is functional. An “F” indicates that the lamp is not
functional. A “-“ indicates that the lamp output is not used (no control statuses defined) in the application.
The T/F status of lamps is shown in order, (Light 1 through Light 16) from left to right in groups of four
(VLD-R16S) or Light 1 through Light 6 from left to right in two groups of three (VLD-C6S).
The Aspect Slot # Quick Status menu depicts the current aspects associated with the outputs of a specific
VLD module. A “T” indicates that the lamp aspect is “steady on.” An “F” indicates that the lamp output is
“off.” Flashing and Alternate Flashing aspects are depicted using alternately filled/cleared “0” symbols.
While the duty cycle and flash rate are not accurate on the CLD with respect to the actual lamp output, the
relative states of flashing and Alternate Flashing are indicated. A “-“ indicates that the lamp output is not
used (no control statuses defined) in the application. VLD-R16S aspects are shown in four groups of four;
VLD-C6S aspects in two groups of three.

Lamp Test Mode
The Lamp Test Mode is a diagnostic mode that allows the user to control a selected lamp output for
troubleshooting purposes. In order to enter the Lamp Test Mode, the user must request access and the
application must have granted access. Otherwise, Lamp Test Mode is not entered. For the VLD-C6S,
Lamp Test Mode is requested / entered on a module-by-module basis. For the VLD-R16S, Lamp Test
Mode is requested on a bank-by-bank basis for a selected module. The menu navigation tree is shown in
Figure 5-19 for the VLD-R16S and Figure 5-20 for the VLD-C6S.
The request to enter Lamp Test Mode is made via the CDU. If the Lamp Setup Grant status (VLD-C6S) or
the Lamp Grant Bank status (VLD-R16S) is enabled, the request is granted and the Lamp Test Mode is
entered and the user is able to control individual lamps via CDU input. If Lamp Test Mode is denied (grant
status is false or no equation for grant status exists), the CDU displays the denial message to the user.
When Lamp Test Mode is entered, the system sets the status of Lamp Normal Mode (VLD-C6S) or Lamp
Bank (1,2) Normal (VLD-R16S) to false. The user may navigate to a specific lamp output via the CDU
which displays the selected lamp output by status name with the current on / off state of the output.
Lamp Test Mode is exited either by the user requesting test mode to be off or by the application setting the
grant status to false. When Test Mode is exited, control of the lamp outputs returns to the application
program.

Manual Lamp Setup (VLD-C6S)
Figure 5-24, Lamp Manual Setup Menu.
The Manual Lamp Setup Mode allows the user to adjust the lamp voltages on a bank of three lamps
residing on a VLD-C6S Module.
While in this mode, the system will continue to operate with the current voltage output until the user selects
a new one. When a new voltage is selected and stored the lamp output voltage is updated with the new
value.
The user accesses this mode by selecting Manual Lamp Setup Menu. Once the user has entered this mode,
the CDU-1 will display the current output voltage, for the specific bank being setup. It should be noted that
the bank's output voltages are measured at the ElectroLogIXS/EC5’s output, not at the lamp.
When the user inputs the new output voltage the system uses a Vital Data Entry Algorithm to verify that
there is a user present. After the system has confirmed the presence of the user, the software will store the
new output value in the systems memory and then change the output voltage accordingly.

Automated Setup (VLD-C6S)
Figure 5-25, Lamp Automated Setup Menu.
The Automated Setup Mode allows the to system automatically calculate the actual output voltage based on
a desired voltage at the lamp. The application grants permission to enter this mode by setting the Lamp
Setup Grant status to True. The application may be written to allow the system to enter the Automated
Setup Mode only when no trains are present.
The user is able to select the Automated Setup Mode using the CDU-1. As soon as the user attempts to
enter the Automated Setup Mode, the executable software verifies that it has permission to enter that mode
based on Lamp Setup Grant status.
If permission to enter the Automated Setup Mode is denied, a message is displayed on the CDU-1
informing the user that this mode can not be entered at the present time. This could be because of train
position or the fact that an equation was never written to allow the Lamp Setup Grant status to go True.
If permission to enter the Automated Setup Mode is granted, the executive software sets the Lamp Normal
Mode status to False and the previously selected lamp voltage, for each of the lamp output driver statuses.
The user selects which lamp output to perform the Automated Setup on. The CDU-1 then prompts the user
for a new lamp voltage.
When the user inputs the new desired lamp voltage at the lamp, the system has the user verify the change to
the lamp voltage. Once verified, the system will commence with the automated setup procedure. The
system will turn off all the lamps in the bank of the VLD-C6S that was selected for the setup for
approximately 30 seconds. The system will illuminate each lamp in the bank for about 1 second with a 5
second off-time between each lamp. After the illuminating portion of the setup, the system calculates the
voltage drop to the lamp and adjusts the lamp output voltage for the desired voltage to be present at the
lamp. This takes another 30 seconds.
The total setup time is approximately 90 seconds. If during the setup procedure the Lamp Setup Grant is set
to False, i.e the clear aspect is dropped, the procedure will be cut short. If the procedure is cut short, the
system will hold the signals in that bank dark for approximately 30 seconds before returning to normal
operation.
In addition, an entry is placed in the user configuration log stating that the lamp voltage was changed. The
new voltage at the lamp is displayed on the CDU-1 and the executable software sets the Lamp Normal
Mode status back to True.

The executable software continuously monitors the Lamp Setup Enable status, to determine if the
permission has been overridden in the middle of the Automated Setup Mode. This will result in the
executable software returning to the previous lamp output voltage and resuming normal lamp operation
within 30 seconds. In the case of the Automatic Setup Mode being cut short the system will display a
CDU-1 alarm message informing the user that the Automated Setup algorithm was cut short due to the
application.

Vital Configuration
Vital Configuration Settings entered through the CDU-1 are stored in a EEPROM on the Backplane. During
normal EC5 operation, these values are used instead of the default Vital Configuration Settings stored in
Application EPROM on the CI Module. The ElectroLogIXS/EC5 will use the Application EPROM Vital
Configuration Default Settings when an Application Selection occurs via the CDU-1 or if the settings stored
on the Backplane become corrupted. If the Vital Configuration Settings stored on the Backplane become
corrupted, the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 will attempt to re-write the Vital Configuration Settings to EEPROM on the
Backplane. If the Application EPROM is replaced, the Vital Configuration Setting must be checked against
those in the Application Circuit Plan.
Figure 5-34, Vital Configuration Menu.
The Vital Configuration Menu is used to view and edit vital configuration switch settings. The Vital
Configuration Settings are used as vital switches in the application software for the ElectroLogIXS/EC5. They
allow the user to vitally select an application path once the equipment is installed, without having to change
the Application EPROM. For safety reasons, the system will check its non-volatile memory, on the
system’s backplane, to ensure that the values stored there are usable. For example, if the system was new
or never used, the system has no prior settings stored in it, the system would determine that its memory is
empty and store the default settings from the Application EPROM. The default setting for the Vital
Configuration Settings are defined by the application engineer. The application engineer can decide if the
default state is True or False for each Vital Configuration Setting. There are a total of 32 vital configuration
switches that can be configured for application specific operations.

ElectroLogIXS/EC5 units. Incorrect settings may result in death or
serious injury.
WARNING
When setting a vital remote link Local or Remote Network ID on
an ElectroLogIXS/EC5, use only the value supplied on the
application circuit plans. If this information is not available from the
application circuit plans, do not put that vital remote link into
service until this is corrected. Failure to comply could result in
death or serious injury. (See Appendix B for more detailed
information)
Figure 5-35, Vital Communication Menu
This menu provides the ability to read current vital settings and status values and, set the vital parameters to
the application default values, and selectively modify vital parameters associated with vital remote
communication. The specific parameters shown are dependent upon the protocol selection (RP2000 vs.
RP2009).

this option is not set to none, ElectroLogIXS/EC5 will automatically update its local time whenever the time
reference received on the selected sync source differs from ElectroLogIXS/EC5 local time by 2 or more
seconds. Available sync sources include EMP, SNTP, Code Line, Vital Remote, and HAWK. The EMP
option uses time update messages received from the EMP time source, SNTP receives messages from a
SNTP time server. The Code Line option uses time update messages received from the Office Port for the
external time reference and requires the selection of an Office Protocol that supports this
feature (e.g., GENISYS® or ATCS). The Vital Remote option receives its external reference through time
update messages received over its vital communication interface. The HAWK option receives its external

Port Subnet Mask
The Port Subnet Mask menu provides the means to set or change the Subnet Mask value of the selected Port
(Ethernet Port 1 or Ethernet Port 2). The format of the mask is four values separated by periods (e.g.

The binary value of the Subnet Mask must be a series of consecutive “1s” followed by a series of
consecutive “0s.” Therefore, only the values of 0, 128, 192, 224, 240, 248, 252, 254, or 255 are allowed
and any non-255 value must be preceded by values of 255. For example, 255.192.0.0 is a legitimate value
but 255.192.240.0 is not. Replacing the 192 with 255 would be legitimate (255.255.240.0) as the 240 value

Trusted Source
The Trusted Source menu provides the ability to enable or disable two Trusted Source values (Trusted
Source 1 and / or Trusted Source 2) for HTTP (web browser) access to the ElectroLogIXS/EC5. The
Trusted Source parameter has two portions: The Trusted Network IP address and the Netmask that indicates
the portion of the Network IP address that is to be used as the acceptance criteria. The numbers entered are
decimal equivalents of the eight bits for each of the four octet entries.
For example, if the Network IP is set to 192.168.1.12 and the associated Netmask value is set to
255.255.255.255 (indicating all bits of the Network IP are significant), ElectroLogIXS/EC5 only responds
to HTTP messages sourced from the one IP address (192.168.1.12). If, however, the Netmask is set to
255.0.0.0, ElectroLogIXS/EC5 will respond to a HTTP message sourced from any IP address with 192 as
the first value.
Trusted Source Netmask values follow the same rules as IP subnet masks. Specifically, the binary value of
the Netmask must be a series of consecutive “1s” followed by a series of consecutive “0s.” Therefore, only
the values of 0, 128, 192, 224, 240, 248, 252, 254, or 255 are allowed and any non-255 value must be
preceded by values of 255. For example, 255.192.0.0 is a legitimate value but 255.192.240.0 is not.
Replacing the 192 with 255 would be legitimate (255.255.240.0) as the non-255 value (240) is now
preceded by 255s in the first and second position.
If both Trusted Sources are disabled, ElectroLogIXS/EC5 responds to an HTTP message from any IP address.
If one or both Trusted Sources are enabled, ElectroLogIXS/EC5 uses the enabled values for both Ethernet
ports as acceptance criteria.

Trusted Source
The Trusted Source menu provides the ability to enable or disable two Trusted Source values (Trusted
Source 1 and / or Trusted Source 2) for the GENISYS® Office on Ethernet. The Trusted Source parameter
has two portions: The Trusted Network IP address and the Netmask that indicates the portion of the
Network IP address that is to be used as the acceptance criteria. The numbers entered are decimal
equivalents of the eight bits for each of the four octet entries.
For example, if the Network IP is set to 192.168.1.12 and the associated Netmask value is set to
255.255.255.255 (indicating all bits of the Network IP are significant), ElectroLogIXS/EC5 only responds
to GENISYS® messages sourced from one IP address (192.168.1.12). If, however, the Netmask is set to
255.0.0.0, ElectroLogIXS/EC5 will respond to a GENISYS® message sourced from any IP address with
192 as the first value.
Trusted Source Netmask values follow the same rules as IP subnet masks. Specifically, the binary value of
the Netmask must be a series of consecutive “1s” followed by a series of consecutive “0s.” Therefore, only
the values of 0, 128, 192, 224, 240, 248, 252, 254, or 255 are allowed and any non-255 value must be
preceded by values of 255. For example, 255.192.0.0 is a legitimate value but 255.192.240.0 is not.
Replacing the 192 with 255 would be legitimate (255.255.240.0) as the non-255 value (240) is now
preceded by 255s in the first and second position.
If both Trusted Sources are disabled, ElectroLogIXS/EC5 responds to a GENISYS® message from any IP
address. If one or both Trusted Sources are enabled, GENISYS® uses the enabled values for both Ethernet
ports as acceptance criteria.

incorrect firmware may result in death or serious injury. Timely is
defined as without undue delay per 49 CFR 236.1023(j).
Railroad Configuration Management Procedures must ensure that the
proper values are set for each vital timer, vital configuration
setting (vital soft switches), PTC applicability setting, PTC debounce
time, PTC WIU address, and vital remote parameter in their
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 units. Incorrect settings may result in death or
serious injury.
Updating or modifying modules, firmware, and values (both application
and executive) must be performed by qualified personnel that are
physically present at the site being updated.
Track circuit troubleshooting interferes with signal system operation.
Always obtain proper authorization prior to performing track circuit
troubleshooting.
If any failure of the equipment is detected, it is the railroads responsibility
to ensure the failure is reported in a timely manner. Once the failure is
reported the appropriate steps must be taken to ensure the equipment is
repaired or replaced promptly. Failure to report and repair unit/module in a
timely fashion may result in death or serious injury. Timely is defined
as without undue delay per 49 CFR 236.1023(j).

Web Graphical User Interface
Chapter 6 – Web Graphical User Interface
WARNING
Unauthorized modification of ElectroLogIXS/EC5 parameters or
configuration may result in unsafe conditions that could result in death
or serious injury. Responsibility for security of passwords for
equipment access lies with the railway authority. Passwords should
be of a non-obvious nature and of sufficient length to preclude an
unauthorized user from easily guessing the password.
Introduction
A VPM-3 based ElectroLogIXS/EC5 system provides user access to status, diagnostic, and set-up
information via the Web Graphical User Interface (Web GUI). Access to the Web GUI is achieved by
connecting to one of the two VPM-3 Ethernet ports, accessing the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 via an Internet web
browser, and providing the correct username / password combination. Diagnostic, status, and control of
system settings are then available via the various web pages provided by the Web GUI.
The loaded application program controls the access to the Web GUI for each of the two Ethernet ports. The
application may set a port to “disabled’ (no Web GUI access permitted), Read Only (no parameter changes
permitted) or Read & Write access. If the port is disabled, an attempt to access that port with a web
browser results in a “You are not authorized to access this device” message being displayed. If the port is
set to Read Only, all parameter entries are “grayed-out” allowing the values to be viewed but not changed.
Similarly, if a parameter is otherwise not able to be modified (e.g. Local Presence is required but not
established) the parameter appears "grayed-out" allowing the value to be viewed but not modified.
The emphasis of this section is the operation and usage of the Web GUI interface. While this interface
allows the various parameters and settings to be viewed or modified, the discussion of the parameters
themselves contained in the CDU section is not repeated. Note also that interface images are for a 9-slot

Web GUI Login
The Login page displays identifying information for the specific ElectroLogIXS/EC5 system along with
entry boxes for Login ID and Password. A checkbox is provided to select PDA page format if desired.
Leaving the box unchecked selects the computer page format.
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 allows a single user to be logged in at a time. If there is an active session when another
user enters login information, the user logging in is informed that another user is already logged on and is
asked to either continue or cancel the login process. Selecting “continue” logs the other user out and logs
the second user in. Selecting cancel returns the user to the log in page. See Figure 6-2.

Web Graphical User Interface
Configuration
The Configuration pages allow viewing and modification of the various programmable settings for the
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 system as well as the individual modules that have settable parameters. The one page
that is the exception to this is the System Configuration page, which lists the current values of all the
settable parameters. This one page can be printed or saved electronically from the web browser to capture
the current values of the system settings.
Diagnostics
The Diagnostic pages provide for viewing and download of the various ElectroLogIXS/EC5 logs as well as
provide access to the diagnostic modes of the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 I/O modules such as the test modes for
the VLD-R16S or the bank switchover for the VIO-44R.
Status
The Status pages allow viewing of the current value of the various application statuses in the loaded
application program. This page automatically refreshes the display of the status values every two seconds.
The “All Statuses” Side Menu selection lists every status in the application in alphanumeric order of the
status names. Selecting an I/O Module or Communication Port shows only those statuses associated with
that module or that communications channel. Selecting the “Watch” box next to a status name places it
under the Watch Statuses Side Menu so that any group of statuses may be selected for more convenient
monitoring. Figure 6-5 depicts these items on the All Statuses page.

Parameter Update
Modification of ElectroLogIXS/EC5 parameters via the Web GUI is a two-step process for any type of
parameter. After changing one or more parameters on a given web page, select “Update Settings” below
the list of parameters (See Figure 6-6). This selection causes the parameter confirmation page to be
displayed for the parameters listed on that specific page. All modifiable parameters on the entry page are
shown on the confirmation page with those parameters that have modified values highlighted (See Figure 67). Selecting “Confirm” causes the new parameter values to be accepted. Selecting “Cancel” causes the
new values to be rejected. In both cases, the user is returned to the web page being viewed previously. If a
parameter change is not confirmed within 60 seconds of selecting “Update Settings”, the modifications are
canceled by the system and the previous page is displayed.
If an out-of-range entry is submitted or an error occurs during the update process, the Web GUI indicates
the type of error. When an error occurs, the requested update is canceled and must be reentered.
Some parameter updates may alter the operation of the system or the ability to access the system via the
Web GUI in a non-obvious way. When such is the case, an Alert is provided on the confirmation screen to
indicate the resulting behavior. Figure 6-8 shows an example of an alert message. In this example
case, the current user will be logged out if the change is accepted.

Local Presence
Modification of vital parameters via the Web GUI requires Local Presence to be established for the active
Web GUI session. Each web page that requires Local Presence for parameter entry has a link to the Local
Presence page. When this web page link is used to navigate to the Local Presence page, the user returns to
the original page after Local Presence is established. A link to Local Presence is also provided on the
Configuration page Side Menu under System Settings.
To establish Local Presence, navigate to the Local Presence page. Select “Request Local Presence“ (See
Figure 6-9) and follow the instructions on the Local Presence Confirmation screen (See Figure 6-10).
When the Local Presence Key is typed in correctly, the PROG button on the VPM-3 is pressed, and the
“Confirm Request for Local Presence” is selected within 60 seconds of the initial request, Local Presence is
established for the current login session.
Note that if the PROG button on the VPM-3 is pressed out of sequence, pressed more than once, or pressed
longer than five seconds Local Presence will not be established.
Local Presence remains in effect until one of the following occur:
6-8
1.
Local Presence is disabled via the Web GUI (Local Presence page).
2.
The active session ends (user logs out or is logged out)
3.
Local Presence is established via the CDU
4.
Thirty minutes elapses since the last parameter change (any parameter)
5.
The ElectroLogIXS/EC5 is reset.

ElectroLogIXS VLC and EC5
PTC Vital Configuration
WARNING
An ElectroLogIXS unit must be configured with a unique Wayside
Interface Unit (WIU) address for Positive Train Control (PTC)
messaging. Failure to ensure the uniqueness of the WIU address
could result in death or serious injury.
Railroad Configuration Management Procedures must ensure that the
proper values are set for each vital timer, vital Configuration
setting (vital soft switches), PTC applicability settings, PTC debounce
time, PTC WIU address, and vital remote parameter in their
ElectroLogIXS/EC5 units. Incorrect settings may result in death or
serious injury.
When configuring an ElectroLogIXS unit for PTC operation, use only
the WIU address value supplied on the site plans. If the WIU address
value is not available from the site plans, do not enable PTC operation
on the unit. Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury.
The PTC Vital Configuration Page is displayed when a PTC mapping file is loaded. The PTC Vital
Configuration page allows the selection of the vital PTC parameters - WIU Enabled, Device Debounce
times, and Applicability properties. When "Set PTC Vital Defaults" is clicked, it will set:
1)
2)
3)
4)
6-42
The WIU Address to the value in the PTC Configuration file, otherwise it is set to 000000000000
The WIU Enabled parameter to "Disable"
The Debounce times to the default values in the PTC Mapping file

SNMP General Configuration
The SNMP General Configuration page is used to set up the SNMP destination IP address, SNMP UDP
port. SNMP Trap Enable, Public and Private community strings, and location and device identification
parameters. This page lets the user enable and disable the SNMP functionality. The SNMP parameters are
stored on the VPM-3.
The following SNMP General Configuration parameters define the SNMP operations and apply to all the
SNMP Traps defined in the system:
6-56
•
Temporary SNMP Trap Disable Time: Length of time to expire before Temporary
SNMP Trap disabled is set to "stop".
•
Temporary SNMP Trap Disable: The NMS subsystem will set the Temporary SNMP
Trap Disable to stop when the Temporary SNMP
Trap Disable is set to "Start/Re-Start", and the time
defined by the Temporary SNMP Trap Disable Time
has passed.
•
Destination IP 1-4: IP addresses of the network management systems receiving the traps –
Default value 0.0.0.0
•
Destination UDP Port 1-4: UDP ports (161, 162) selectable of the network management
systems receiving the traps – Default value 162
•
Wayside Device Type: Wayside equipment type associated with this WIU. Defaults to
the WIU device. (EL1A, EC4, VHLC or ElectroLogIXS)
•
Location: String used to define the local unit. If a PTC mapping file is loaded, it
defaults to WIU Address. If no Mapping file loaded, it defaults to the Site ID
•
Public Community String: Setting this value grants access to the SNMP site –
Defaults to Blanks
•
Private Community String: Password for internal account on the network management
system receiving the traps. – Defaults to blanks
•
WIU Heartbeat Trap Logging: The SNMP Comm Log will be withheld from logging
of the WIU Heartbeat Traps if the "WIU Heartbeat Trap
Logging" is set to disable.
•
SNMP Trap Enable: Indicates if the SNMP Subsystem is active. – Defaults to Disabled

SNMP Trap Configuration
The SNMP Trap Configuration page lets the user customize each trap the system is set up to send. Each
trap can have one or more specific traps with user editable fields. Enabling and disabling a Trap enables or
disables all the specific traps associated with the Trap. All the user customizable fields are independent of
the trap implementation in the system and their values have meaning to the network management system
that receives the traps.
Depending on the trap, a trap can have an associated clear trap that is invoked when the condition that
caused the trap no longer applies. For example, if a Communications Link trap is sent when 5 Class D
Message errors are detected in 60 seconds. The Communications Link trap clear can be set so that the
clear is sent when a single good Class D message is detected.
The following SNMP Trap Configuration parameters allow customization of the traps:
Trap Name
Dropdown list of all generic trap names
Trap Enable
Enables the Trap defined by Trap Name
Alert
Configuration data associated with the Alert trap
Trap Text
user modifiable text field describing the trap
Number of Occurrences

Web Graphical User Interface
General Ethernet
The General Ethernet Configuration page, shown in Figure 6-80, allows modification of the IP address,
subnet mask, DHCP Server Enable/Disable, DHCP Server IP Pool Start, DHCP Server IP Pool End, DHCP
Server Default Gateway for each of the two Ethernet ports along with the IP address of the Default
Gateway. A Set Ethernet Defaults selection is provided to establish the settings contained in the
application. When "Set Ethernet Defaults" is selected on the CDU or Web GUI, the DHCP Server Settings
will be defaulted. Note that if the IP address of the Ethernet Port being used for the Web GUI session
changes, the user will be logged out and will be required to log in to the new IP address.
ElectroLogIXS uses a DHCP address pool from the subnet of each of the two Ethernet ports. The typical case
is that the two ports are on different subnets; therefore each has its own pool of IP addresses to assign.
An IP address is comprised of a Network field and a Host field. The Network field is identified by the "1s" in
the subnet mask while the Host field is identified by the "0s" in the subnet mask. For example 255.255.255.0
The minimum allowable IP Pool address is the third address value from the beginning of the host field (e.g.
192.168.10.2) and the maximum allowable IP Pool address is the third address from the end value of the
host field (e.g. 192.168.10.253).
The maximum ElectroLogIXS DHCP IP pool range is 32 consecutive IP addresses from each of the possible
subnets. Also, the x.x.x.0, x.x.x.1, x.x.x.254, and x.x.x.255 address of a subnet are not assignable as these are
reserved for use by routers or other networking devices.
Additionally, a DHCP IP pool range cannot span the Ethernet port IP address. That is, if the IP address is
set to 192.168.10.20 and the DHCP IP Pool Start address is set to 192.168.0.15, the DHCP IP Pool End
must be 192.168.0.19

WARNING
Railroad Configuration Management Procedures must ensure that the proper
values are set for each vital remote parameter in the ElectroLogIXS/EC5
units. Incorrect settings may result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
When setting a vital remote link Local or Remote Network ID on an
ElectroLogIXS/EC5, use only the value supplied on the application circuit
plans. If this information is not available from the application circuit plans, do
not put that vital remote link into service until this is corrected. Failure to
comply could result in death or serious injury. (See Appendix B for more
detailed information)
The Ethernet Vital Communication page allows the modification of the various vital settings for a given
remote device. Modifications may be fixed or may have parameter ranges defined by the application
program.

Diagnostic Terminal and Telnet Interface
Connecting a diagnostic terminal or a PC (Personal Computer) to the CIO-1/CIO-1A/CIO-CLA
(Communication Input/Output) Module diagnostic port, the VPM-2/VPM-2+ diagnostic port, or a VPM-3
Ethernet port’s Telnet Interface allows local control, memory dumps, and more extensive diagnostics than
does the CDU (Control Display Unit). Diagnostic terminal commands typed on the keyboard perform various
functions, such as examining data or controlling diagnostic terminal logging. Logging to the screen is more
convenient than directly to a printer, and, when using a PC, most communications programs allow simultaneous
screen and printer logging.

WARNING
The VPM-2 Diagnostic Port does not provide isolation protection
against Ground Faults. This port is intended for short-term use by
on-site personnel who are trained to observe any operational
anomalies. If the ElectroLogIXS/EC5 is powered from Signal or
Equipment battery, Ground Faults in external equipment attached to
the VPM-2 Diagnostic Port may be passed through to the powering
battery. Undetected Ground Faults to Signal or Equipment battery
may result in hazardous rail operation.
If a connection to the VPM-2 Diagnostic Port is left unattended, the
connected equipment must provide any required Ground Fault
protection. Ground Fault testing must be performed after the
connection is established, and at FRA mandated intervals thereafter.

Terminal Program
Diagnostic Terminal Setup
Make sure the diagnostic port and the diagnostic terminal are using the same baud rate, stop bits, parity, and
data word length. These settings can be verified using the CDU-1.
When using a PC, a communications programs must be used to communicate with the ElectroLogIXS/EC5
diagnostic port. Make sure the diagnostic port and the communication program are using the same baud
rate, flow control, stop bits, parity, and data word length.
Telnet Interface Connection
To use the Telnet Interface for diagnostic purposes, connect a PC to an Ethernet port of the VPM-3 using an
Ethernet cable.
Telnet Interface Setup
Ensure the Telnet Interface for the Ethernet port is enabled through the CDU-1 or Web GUI. Using a
terminal program, such as HyperTerminal, connect to the IP address that is set for the port on the VPM-3
module that you are connecting to. Once connected, a login prompt will be displayed. The username and
password for the Telnet Interface may be set through the Web GUI or viewed through either the CDU-1 or
the Web GUI. After a definable period of inactivity, the Telnet Interface will be closed. The inactivity
timeout may be set through the CDU-1 or Web GUI.
