Abstract (en)
The present invention relates to a communication and control system for rail bound vehicles with one communication link called train bus (1), for transfer of information to and from the vehicles in a train, and at least one vehicle bus (2), for transfer of information within a vehicle or fixed set of vehicles. The vehicle bus works as a subsystem to the train bus and connects a number of functional units (5-9) in series. The vehicle bus comprises at least two segments (2a, 2b). In normal operation the segments work as a single communication link, but if a fault occurs the segment with the fault is disconnected, and the functional units connected to the disconnected segment take on a predetermined mode. <IMAGE> <IMAGE> <IMAGE>
