14. NIS FTS
 NIS from TDM is a fully IP based FTS solution
- FRS 7.3 and SRS 15.3 EIRENE compliant
- MSC connection over ISDN E1 or *SIP (ETSI TS 103 389)
 Integration of different Sub-Systems
- Support of Short Message Service for Railways (SMPP)
- FTS-IN Service (interface to IN) to present the registered FN’s on the FTS / FN
- FTS-TD-Service (interface to Train Control System); gives detailed train position
to route incoming call more precisely (eLDA) -> integration of project specific
adapters

15. FTS General Features
 Voice Call
 SMS
 Monitoring
 Call History
 Phonebook
 Listen Again
 Speed dialling for ISDN and FN
 Fully Meshed Network
 Configuration of the GUI via drag and drop

16. Technical Overview
Eurotunnel (FR / UK)

17. Analogue/Digital Radio Gateway
 The MGV 4000 Gateway supports the following Radio-/ 4-Wire wire
Interfaces and can be fitted with different type of interface cards ( up to 4
front-end boards)
 The Gateway can be configured flexibly and thus it enables the connection
of most differing radio / 4-Wire systems with their particular protocols
- 4-Wire E&M: Type I / Type II / Type III / Type / Type IV / Type V
- TETRA PEI-Interface-Card; TMO (trunked mode) / DMO (direct mode)

18. MGC-204 (4-Wire E&M)
 4-Wire E&M Interface
- Supported E&M Interfaces: Type I / Type II / Type III / Type IV / Type V
Special Types: FNI BS770 Type 12 / FNI BS770 Type 13
- Mixed operation: all interfaces are independent and can run in with different
configuration
- Isolated against ground: 1kV
- Frequency: 50Hz – 7000 Hz
- Level (emission / reception): 0 dB
- Linearity: +/- .5 dB
- Impedance (emission / reception): 600 Ω
- Internal self test
Status available on: LED (per Interface)/SNMP / WEB-GUI

20. Telecontrol (I/O)
The telecontrol functionality of the NIS
supports the railway operator to
manage the Station infrastructure. Input
and output contacts (also referred to as
I/O’s) can be controlled with NIS.
 Input contacts can be monitored and
output contacts controlled.
 The controlled I/O’s can be displayed
in graphical user interface of the
SBG (system operating terminal)
 Different inputs and outputs can be
defined with configured conditions
as a I/O Object (e.g. door gate,
elevator, etc.)
 NIS I’O Gateway or each SPS/Module 3rd party product
with Modbus Interface can be used
as I/O Interface device

21. CCTV Integration
 NIS is capable of
controlling an external
video system. Analogue
and IP based video
matrix and servers can
be integrated
 Manual activation of
cameras on monitors
 Controlling CCTV
tracking cameras
 Monitoring sequences
(define / start / stop)
 Automatic switching of
the CCTV video image
for a call 3rd party product
 Recording and merging
video and voice

22. CTI Interface
CSTA CTI integration “third-party interface”
 Management System controls communication over CTI Interface, incl. NIS
I/O and alarm status
 For Voice communication the NIS CTI Application routes the calls to the
defined standard telephone
Operator Terminal
EBG
VoIP
(voice / Management-
data) System
Ethernet
CTI-Interface
CSTA (XML)

23. SCADA Integration
NIS systems can be coupled to higher level control systems using an OPC
interface. The data points to be transmitted are roughly summarised as
follows:
 System status
 Operator workstation states
 Call status Management-
 Customer-specific data points System
(with OPC-Client)
OPC-DA
Optional:
OPC-UA
