GE IXS XP4 User Manual
GE
Transportation
The ElectroLogIXS family of wayside electronics is designed
to simplify the way you control your railroad. This versatile
platform can be configured for advanced interlocking control,
for crossing prediction, or for intermediate signaling.
Sharing modules and software tools across these applications
can decrease your design time, simplify installation and
maintenance, maximize training effectiveness, and reduce
spares inventory requirements.

The ElectroLogIXS XP4 supports a wide range of highwayrail grade crossing applications, incorporating constant
warning time and motion detection control, crossing island
train detection, vital input monitoring, vital relay drive output
control and ground fault detection. Vital serial communication
ports enable the ElectroLogIXS XP4 to communicate with
ElectroLogIXS, EC5, or VHLC systems. It can be expanded
to add radio signaling capabilities or to operate remotely
through a vital serial data port.

Specifications
The ElectroLogIXS XP4 consists of a
chassis, motherboard, plug-in modules,
a CDU-1 Control Display Unit and
personality modules with terminal
blocks for hard wiring the system
to external crossing controllers. All
modules have front-panel indicators
that display module health status, and
function indicators for monitoring active
I/O signals. The CDU-1 or a computer/
terminal connected to the diagnostic
port serves as the human/machine
interface for system installation and
setup, parameter adjustment, and
system testing and troubleshooting.
Advanced Train Detection
Applying track-tested principles from
generations of previous crossing
processors, the ElectroLogIXS XP4
broadens crossing capabilities to fourtrack normal/standby monitoring and
adds flexibility in crossing prediction
for four quadrant gate and quiet zone
crossings. The Crossing Track Interface
(XTI-1S) module integrates approach
and island circuits. It’s compatible with
high-current cab signals.
The ElectroLogIXS XP4 has a built-in
recorder that logs time-stamped
vital and non-vital events as well as
internal logic state changes, crossing
performance data, and failures/reset
information. All recorded events can
be printed both track side and in the
office. A set of resident diagnostic
programs provides the tools necessary
to perform system event analysis and
troubleshooting.
Recorded data may be displayed
in a graphical format using
GE - Transportation’s Graphical Data
Analyzer, or you can play back the
sequence of events using Graphical
Data Player.
Application
Application templates minimize setup
and configuration time in the field on
even the most complex applications.
