RDS
The RDS Railway Deformation System is a non-conventional monitoring system designed by Sisgeo for automatic monitoring of railway longitudinal deformation and the track cant (or track twisting).
FLX-Rail
FLX-Rail® is a high-precision void meter designed to automatically and continuously measure maximum vertical rail deformation during every train passage.
Rome Underground – Line C – Italy
Rome metro Line C runs through the city from North-West (Della Vittoria district) to the eastern suburb and is extending beyond the Grande Raccordo Anulare.Line C has a full-run of 25,6 km and 30 stations, passing through the old town centre.The Route will be characterised by the green colour. The interchanges with the other metro […]
Milan Metro Line 4 – Lorenteggio–Linate – Monitoring of the underpass of railway trails RFI between stations “Forlanini Q.RE” and “Forlanini FS” – Italy
The main aims of the M4 realization are: to realize a new diametrical line from East to West, in order to connect through the historical center some highly populated urban areas that are not well served by the network of public transport; to interconnect with the whole railway system, urban and regional; to realize a […]
Milano, Forlanini Stop Bypass – Monitoring of Northern and Southern Underpass – Italy
The realization of the railway station Forlanini FS is connected to the realization of the M4 Metro of Milan (line 4). Forlanini FS station, which has been opened in May 2015, allows to connect the system of the suburban railway lines (S5, S6 and S9) to Linate airport, thanks to line M4.During the rails translation […]
FAQ#110 – What’s the purpose of the linear and polynomial factors written in the Calibration Reports?
Utilize the Linear Sensitivity Factors (A, B) and Ploynomial Sensitivity Factors (A, B, C, D) of the Calibration Reports permit to obtain readings in engineerig units with a maximum error as for the Calibration Report. In the case of analogue gauges, the factors shall be applied on the electrical readings (i.e. mA, mV, digit, etc…) […]
FAQ#095 – How long does a chain of digital sensors take to be read?
It mainly depends from the powering mode of the gauges (refer to FAQ#094 for the description of the powering modes). AN EXAMPLE WILL BETTER CLARIFY THE ANSWER. In a batch of 240 gauges, unless otherwise requested by the Customer, the addresses are settled from #001 up to #240. In a borehole is installed a chain of 30 […]
FAQ#094 – Which are the available powering modes for SISGEO digital sensors?
All SISGEO digital gauges can be settled in two different powering mode: The STANDARD powering mode is ALWAYS ON, so unless otherwise requested by the Customer, the sensors are settled as default in ALWAYS ON.
FAQ#077 – Which are the maximum cable lengths from instrument to datalogger?
The cable lengths depend from many factors, first of all installation and cable protections (screen, earth, etc…). Assuming that instruments are installed in a workmanlike, for the maximum cable lengths should be followed the next suggestions: DIGITAL INSTRUMENTS: see FAQ#73 ANALOGUE INSTRUMENTS: see both downloadable documents.
FAQ#076 – Why it is necessary add a termination resistor to the last digitized sensor of each RS-485 chain?
All SISGEO digitized instruments (IPIs, Tiltmeters, H-Level…) use the RS-485 serial communication protocol The RS485 protocol contemplate a termination resistor. The recommended chain connection is point-to-point (multidropped) nodes as a bus mode (line). Star, ring or multiply network connection are not recommended. SISGEO dataloggers has already a termination resistor assembled (typically 120Ω). On the opposite […]
FAQ#075 – What parameters are saved in SISGEO digital sensors? What information must the Customer provide when ordering?
All SISGEO digital sensors (e.g. IPI, BH Profile, MD Profile, LT Inclibus, Tilt-meter, RDS, H-Level, etc.) use the Modbus communication protocol over RS-485 serial. SISGEO digital sensors are connected to each other with a single signal cable. The parameters that are configured at the factory for each digital sensor are as follows: Upon confirmation of […]
FAQ#073 – Which is the maximum number of digitized sensors (RS-485, Modbus), the maximum number of chains and the maximum length of cable in a RS-485 network?
Last update: October 2021 All the SISGEO digitized sensors utilize a RS485 interface with Modbus protocol. 1.The maximum number of digitized sensors in a RS-485 network are 247 (theoretical) 2.The maximum number of digitized sensors chains that is possible to connect to Modbus master unit (as OMNIAlog or miniOMNIAlog) are 4. 3. About the maximum […]
