Tech/Engineering - Transport / Transportation / Shipping / automatic train control systems | | French term or phrase: dépréparant le véhicule | Same context as previous question - I should specify that this is for electric-powered trams, and autodetection systems to prevent them from overrunning signals set to red. Thanks!
Le Dispositif de Détection de
Franchissement des Feux Ferroviaires
Lors du franchissement d’un feu rouge un relais K1, alimenté en 24V préparé, se ferme et provoque ainsi :
- l’ouverture de la Boucle de Sécurité,
- son automaintien,
- l’allumage d’un voyant
L’automaintien du K1 :
- est présent tant que le véhicule est préparé,
- ne chute qu’en dépréparant le véhicule |

| | fails only when the tram is shut down (*or made to stop working) | Explanation:
the K1 relay responds when the rail lights are overstepped or transgressed by shuting itself off.
b. it then activates itself after the safety circuits are set in motion or opened. The safety circuits power the relay at this time? If this is true, that means the tram will be timed by the K1 relay after transgressing this light not to move beyond a limited, timed, safe distance.
c. but note: the K1 relay self-activation will work only when the tram is working or switched on and fails or will not come into play (or operational ) if an external element, possibly a human present who immediately has shut down the tram, electronically or made it to stop working, physically, as soon as this breach is noticed.
d. the use of the participle, preparé, in this industry is quite novel.
