  7. Cobalt RM Key Selling Points • Cobalt RM is designed to meet the latest ATC standard 6.10 which incorporates the Linux open architecture operating system. • Many agencies do not want to be tied to one manufacturer’s controller/hardware, but they would like the option to purchase hardware from multiple sources and software from a single vendor.

  8. Cobalt RM Key Selling Points • Controller software can be updated and database or logs copied from/to a USB memory stick. • Previously, updating software and retrieving databases or logged data required starting up and connecting a laptop to the controller.

  10. Cobalt RM Key Selling Points • Cobalt RM can provide users with a live video feed from Autoscope or other IP cameras (future).

  11. Cobalt RM Key Selling Points • Cobalt AND Cobalt RM’s traffic control algorithms are field-proven for over nine years. • Many agencies don’t want to be the first to try a new controller. The first ASC/3 shipped 1/31/05 The first Cobalt shipped 7/31/13

  12. Cobalt RM Key Selling Points • Cobalt RM’s LAN port can be used with a Laptop for updating software, copying database or log retrieval without disconnecting and interrupting the WAN connection. • Many IT departments do not allow anyone to connect their laptops to the “system traffic network” by using the Ethernet switch In the cabinet.

  13. Cobalt RM Key Selling Points Software side of Cobalt RM: • Cobalt RM’s GUI • Touch, color, graphics makes programming simple and intuitive. • Cobalt RM’sLogic Processor can test inputs, outputs and timer. If true, it sets inputs, outputs or other functions. • Many agencies have special operations or applications that standard controllers do not provide.

  14. Cobalt RM Key Selling Points Software side of Cobalt RM: • Cobalt RM offers VIOT for enhanced diagnostics. • It can capture faults and then the operation can be replayed. • For replication and diagnostics • For future testing

  15. Cobalt RM Key Selling Points Software side of Cobalt RM: • Cobalt RM offers preemptsequence exit choices following preemption to service the longest queue or free for one cycle with special timing before returning to coordination. • Sometimes the queue of cars waiting for preemption to end has to wait multiple cycles before being able to move through the intersection.

  16. PE Exit One Free Cycle • Clear standing queue after preemption! 6 1 8 3 7 4 5 2

  17. Queue Delay Recovery from Fire PMT 6 1 8 3 7 4 5 2

  18. Cobalt RM Key Selling Points • Cobalt RM provides an excellent base for future expansion. • Future Econolite Software modules • Adaptive Control • ITS • Intersection to Intersection (Peer to Peer) • Intersection to Vehicle and Vehicle to Intersection • World Congress demonstration project – Sept. 2014 in Michigan

  19. Enclosure • Designed to be capable of meeting or exceeding the proposed ATC standard 6.10 requirements for a rack mountable controller. • 19.0” W X 7.0” H X 12.5” D including cable wraps on the rear. 7” corresponds to a 4U height which is the height required to install a standard 2070 communications module.
