Solar Traffic Controls Provides Flasher for Advance Train Warning System Project

TEMPE, AZ 01/06/2006 - Solar Traffic Controls has teamed up with Crossing Safety Technologies of Scottsdale to provide solar flashers for its Advance Train Warning System (ATWS) product line. Using Precision Solar Controls lamps, the solar flashers provide a dual 8-inch amber DC LED indication to warn motorists of an approaching train at RR crossings.

The flashers are activated with the ATWS radio link package, a special communications package developed by Crossing Safety Technologies and approved for use in the railroad industry. The master radio unit, located at the rail crossing and connected to the sensing equipment, transmits a signal to activate the flashers. Both the ATWS and the STC flasher contain detection methods to warn of a fault condition on the system thus offering the high reliability required of a flasher application. In addition, the STC flasher unit includes an LCD interface to display system status and a self-test feature to test the control logic which runs the flasher.
