Abstract

See full text

A method of transitioning a locomotive brake control system between a remote operated locomotive RCL mode and an electronic air brake EAB mode includes initializing the system in the EAB mode; and determining a value of an RCL enable. Transitioning from the EAB mode to the RCL mode includes a) determining if the system is ready to be transitioned to the RCL mode if the RCL enable is high, and b) transitioning the system to the RCL mode if the system is ready for transition and the RCL enable is high. Transitioning from the RCL mode to the EAB mode includes a) determining if the system is ready to be transitioned to the EAB mode if the RCL enable is low, and b) transitioning the system to the EAB mode if the system is ready for the transition to the EAB mode and the RCL enable is low.
