Current position: Signalling has traditionally been set at the national level, which is hard to integrate when trains cross borders. It is expensive and harder to make interoperable.
- EULYNX is the digitalisation of the railway signalling industry.
- The aim is to create open, standardised interfaces between signalling system components.
- Modular approach to signalling, offering standard interfaces for interaction.
- Reduces vendor lock-in and allows for modular replacement.
- EULYNX publish documents on the architecture and interface specifications.
- Covers architecture, components and interfaces.
EULYNX specifications cover:
- Interlockings
- Object Controllers
- Points and point machines
- Signals
- Axle counters and train detection
- Level crossings
- IP-based communications (including RaSTA)
- Cybersecurity and networking interfaces
