Foreword
Presently, Indian Railways manufacture four classes of 3-phase drive locomotives viz.
WAG9, WAG9H, WAP5 and WAP7, based on the transfer of technology (ToT) from ABB
Switzerland (now Bombardier Transportation). These locomotives employ a distributed
architecture for control and data communication. There are seven racks (called busstations), which are interconnected through optical fibre cable and communicating
according to Multifunctional Vehicle Bus (MVB) protocol, which is an ABB proprietary
standard. Within each rack, there are many processor segments, which are connected
together through a wired serial bus, an electrical version of the MVB. Within each
processor segments, there can be more than one processor (multi-processor bus) sharing
common Input/Output (I/O) devices through Advanced Multi-master System (AMS) bus.
However, in the implementation adopted by Indian Railways, only one processor is used
in each segment of AMS bus. The complete electronics is generally termed as MICAS-S2,
an acronym for MICrocomputer Automation System - Series-2. Communication between
two locomotives is done through a serial bus having data transmission as per HDLC
protocol. The control hardware, software and protocols are proprietary products of ABB.
MICAS-S2 control cards are being manufactured in India by Industry partners and
control software is administered by CLW. However, being proprietary in nature, any
basic change needed to handle the obsolescence in electronic component and software
industry, is not possible due to non-availability of design knowledge and source codes of
firmware and operating system, development platform which is DOS based also cant be
sustained due to advances in PC technology. Flexibility for third party equipment
interface, which is the order of the day, is impossible due to the rigid and hard coded
architecture of hardware and software. The technology itself is of mid 1980 vintage.
Presently used architecture is shown in Appendix-1 for appreciation. Distribution of
various types of PCBs in each rack can be seen at Appendix-2 to 5 and the bus
architecture is given at Appendix-6 to 9. Appendix-10 gives the brief definitions of the
terms used along with the instructions to the Bidders.
2.0
Need for Change

As traction environment needed specially designed and tested hardware, the
development remained almost proprietary with the rolling stock Contractors. Due to this,
interchangeability of sub-assemblies or equipment became almost impossible across
Contractors. With fast obsolescence creeping the electronics industry, sustenance of
technology during the lifetime of the rolling stock became the key issue. Initially, no
global standard existed for ensuring Contractor independent inter-changeability of
traction electronic sub-systems, though, various normative standards existed for various
product design and testing like transformer, converter etc.
Need was hence felt to standardize the control hardware and software to ensure interchangeability of equipment from different Contractors, and accordingly, IEC has
published a standard for open control architecture in rail vehicles, viz. IEC-61375, which
is termed as the Train Communication Network (TCN). It defines the requirements
of various layers of communication and interface.
In order to sustain the control system in a rolling stock during its lifetime, i.e. over 35
years, it becomes necessary to update the technology continuously and tackle the

obsolescence and Contractor dependence. This is not possible with the present
proprietary control system used by Indian Railways, as already, it became obsolete in the
global market. Hence, it was decided to standardise and develop appropriate hardware
and software as per IEC-61375 TCN open standard for WAG9, WAG9H, WAP7 and
WAP5 class of three phase locomotives to start with.

3.26
In the existing system, the electronic racks are mounted within a sealed casing located at
low voltage cubicles (SB1 & SB2). The air from the machine room blower indirectly cools
the casing. In this offer also, the racks are to be mounted at the same locations to avoid
change in the locomotive cable harness. The Contractors may choose to adopt the same
mechanical system as existing today, which means, the racks are mounted within the
casing and the casing is cooled indirectly. In such a case, supply of rack integrated with
casing and heat exchanger shall be part of the supply. While the casing is available in
India, heat exchanger used is from BEHR/Germany. The offered rack shall be having its
own cooling and ventilation arrangement. The physical location of present VCU1 and
VCU2 shall be retained, as mentioned in Cl. 3.11. The offered VCU racks are to be
mounted with in the existing mechanical space envelope. Presently the rack which comes
in a casing is indirectly cooled by a heat exchanger mounted on this casing through which
the machine room air passes. The rack is a 6U card cage. While the location has to be
retained with in the constraints of existing space envelope and mounting arrangement,
for the reasons explained in Cl. 3.11, the requirement of the cooling may be met either by
utilizing the existing arrangement or by providing a suitable alternative with in existing
space envelope and airflow. Supply of rack, casing and the cooling arrangement is part of
the scope of supply.
The essence is as follows:
New hardware are to be accommodated in casing on which SB1/2 cubicles will be
mounted like used presently.
The Contractor may or may not utilize the present indirect cooling arrangement
using MR air and BEHR Radiator depending on the design. In case the heat
exchanger is not required, opening has to be suitably blanked at this point by the
Contractor.
The Contractor has to make his own arrangement for internal circulation of air to
avoid hot spots. Presently, a fan tray is mounted below the rack.
Casing will be within the scope of supply.
External heat exchanger is also part of the supply in case the design so needs it.
3.27
IR prefers to retain the existing cable looms with connectors (for I/Os and battery power)
without any change, so that the same can be plugged on to the new system under
consideration. The Bidders are expected to study the present arrangement and expected
to comment specifically about the retention of present arrangement without any change.
3.28
Addressing of the PCBs within a rack is a matter of design. This would mean
geographical addressing or dynamic addressing.

Input / Output Signals

The input devices are wetted using battery voltage. Hence, all the digital input signals
are at battery potential and is subjected to a variation as defined in the IEC-60571. The
output signals shall be provided through potential free relay outputs. The relays shall be
mounted on the PCBs. As these PCB mounted relays directly controls the locomotive
contractors having inductive reactance, adequate protection shall be given across the
relay contacts to absorb the surge energy. Snubber circuit is connected across the
contractor coils, as given in figure-1.
110V DC
Snubber across Contactor
PCB mounted relay contact
Fig-1
The analog signals connected to the vehicle control system passes through the EMI prone
zone. These signals are mainly master controller reference signals (+10V DC) which is an
input and brake controller output, which is also +10V DC. These signals are carried
through shielded cables, however, protection has to be given in the signal conditioning
portion of the analog input/output cards to eliminate any EMI getting into the EMI
protected zone. Detailed signal list of the existing vehicle control system shall be made
available from CLW.
