ICAO: Annex 14 -­‐ Volume I, Aerodrome Design Manual Part 5, Manual of Surface Movement Guidance and Control System DOC 9476-­‐AN/927, Advanced Surface Movement Guidance and Control Systems (A-­‐SMGCS) Manual DOC 9830-­‐AN/452 FAA: L-­‐890T AC150/5345-­‐56A NATO: STANAG 3316 IEC: 62143 -­‐ 61508 AGLC represents the software application package proposed by OCEM as the Airport Lighting Control and Monitoring System. AGL allows to m anage from regional through international hubs airports, thanks to its modular and scalable design. • ICAO and FAA compliant for operation up to CAT III • easy-­‐to-­‐use and first-­‐glance oriented HMIs • SLMCS (Single Lamp Control and Monitoring System) oriented for preventive airport light maintenance, increasing safety and reliability • Power line based SLCMS for cost-­‐cutting cabling and easy extension • Stop bar Lights Control • Runway Safety Area Management and Runway Incursion detection • Stop Bar Lights and RSAMS Controllers available on separate dedicated HMIs • easy interfacing with ILS, RVR, AWOS and Power Supply on-­‐site existing equipment, showing processed data on dedicated Category HMI • Robust server-­‐server or server-­‐client or client-­‐server redundant architecture • easy interfacing with third parties • easy features' tuning for small and medium sized airports' requirements • Easy and safe reconfiguration of HMI • Flexible and customized software • Tower HMI supervision by remote Energy Technology srl Operating office: Via della Solidarietà 2/1 40056 Valsamoggia Loc.

BASIC CONTROL APPLICATION AGLC Console is the m ain OCEM ALCMS application with an intuitive GUI/HMI that: • • • • • • shows the current status of the complete airfield lighting system, as located on the airport map shows the current status of all CCRs and all other users, highlighting specific alarms allows to forward commands only if the mastership is acquired, by tower or maintenance operators; only one station a time can hold the command mastership to control CCRs and other units manages preset...

STOP BAR CONTROL (SBC) • This application, which can be also integrated with the SLCMS, allows ATC operators to independently m anage and monitor the stop bars with the associated lead-­‐on paths located at the runway-­‐taxiway intersections, by dedicated pushbuttons provided on the AGLC console The pushbutton operation opens a specific pop-­‐up window which allows the ATC operators to monitor the lamp and sensor status, send the “GO command”, follow the aircraft transit through the intersection, be...

This application interfaces ILS/RVR/AWOS and Power Supply equipment, processes the relevant data and integrates them with Airfield Lighting status, in order to provide the current operational category Moreover it informs the operators about the forecast operational category and suggests how to set the Airfield Lighting through the AGLC application. On request the Airfield Lighting setting can be automated. RUNWAY SAFETY AREA MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (RSAMS) RSAMS is an ...

www.ocem.com ocem@ocem.com FIELD TRANSIT SENSOR SYSTEM (FTSS) • Microwave and magnetic loop sensors located at the runway/taxiway intersections and along the taxiing routes are used to detect the presence of aircrafts and vehicles • Their information are collected inside control cabinets which communicate with the AGLC using fiber optic loops for immediate availability • Sensors and cabinets take power by dedicated or stop bar/taxiway series circuits. SINGLE LAMP...

INSULATION RESISTANCE MONITORING SYSTEM (IRMS) IRMS application collects the information provided by IRM units, automatic devices that performs periodic insulation resistance tests on the airfield lighting series circuits IRMS application permits to inform in real time the maintenance personnel about the actual insulation resistance value and any warning or alarm conditions, and shows the insulation resistance trend in a graphic format, allowing preventive maintenance actions...
