Yunex Traffic, a division of Siemens, has unified their SEPAC software so controllers running EPAC and NTCIP protocols are programmed using the same menu structure. However, they have eliminated their Dial/Split/Offset combinations and now refer to Action Plan Patterns.
MoboTrex has developed an online Conversion Tool which will help you translate D/S/Os to Patterns and Patterns to D/S/Os.
TOMAR’s Optical Signal Processor (OSP) cards are located inside of the traffic signal cabinet and receive the electrical signal from the detectors located at the intersection.
Once determined to be a valid signal the card requests for the traffic signal controller to provide a green right-of-way for the first responder vehicle which allows them to respond faster & safer to each emergency situation.
Providing green lights at approximately 1/2 mile or 2500’ in advance allows for vehicles stopped at a previous red light to clear the intersection and allow for first responders to proceed without being impeded.
The new V2 version cards include a larger onboard power supply to control the optional Integrated Confirmation light attached to each detector without the need for an external power supply or additional cabling.
