How ECP Works How ECP Works
NIU/HEU searches for HET, PS’s, & LID’s, turns on PS (8 Sec) to wake up and acquire cars/EOT
If EOT found trainline power continuously applied
Prior to entering RUN Mode, after the consist has been acquired and the car count confirmed by the engineer, the train is sequenced.
Each Car ID Device and Locomotive ID Device contains circuitry to detect current and switch in/out a small electrical load on the trainline used for the sequencing function during ECP Initialization
![Page 38: 1 Wabtec Global Services Electro Pneumatic Controlled Freight Brake System (ECP) General Overview Michael Zenert Manager Field Service & Training.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/5513fa5f550346e2488b45c6/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
38
How ECP Sequencing Works How ECP Sequencing Works During sequencing the vehicle’s position in the train, relative
to the Lead locomotive and its directional orientation are determined and stored by the Head End Unit (HEU). This is accomplished by counting pulses in the trainline current, as sensed by each Locomotive and Car ID, as the switchable load on each vehicle is momentarily connected to the trainline and then disconnected. This creates a small current pulse.
Those vehicles that are downstream of the location on the trainline that switched in the load do NOT detect the current pulse, while those upstream will. The Head End Unit repeats these commands for each vehicle acquired during initialization. By knowing the pulse count for each vehicle in the consist, which the Locomotive/Car ID Devices store and report to the Head End Unit, the vehicle’s relative position in the train can be determined.

How ECP Sequencing Works How ECP Sequencing Works By switching the load on to the trainline and then sensing
whether or not that vehicle could detect its own pulse, combined with the car specific data as to which end of the vehicle the load is installed (stored in the vehicle ID device), orientation of the vehicle with respect to the front of the train can be determined
Train sequencing is performed each time RUN Mode is entered
Once in RUN, the operator moves the brake control, sends request to NIU. NIU puts brake request on to ECP trainline
CCID’s read request, and command ECP Manifold MV’s to apply/release BCP
