RailComm Provides Remote Control Protection System to BNSF Havre

August 10, 2007 - RailComm, Inc. recently shipped and commissioned remote control derail and blue flag protection system to the BNSF diesel shop in Havre, Montana.
Control will be exercised from RailComm’s DOC® (Domain Operations Controller) yard automation software. The system requires a control interface to existing field equipment such as power derails and power switch machines. This was accomplished by utilizing RailComm’s field-proven universal switch controller (USC). The RailComm USC allows the RailComm DOC® system to provide remote control to any third party (new or existing) field equipment.

BNSF will utilize RailComm’s RADiANT™ data radios to create a wireless communications network between the DOC® system and the field devices. RailComm’s license free, spread spectrum data radios offer a highly reliable and cost effective solution.
