On-board Passenger Information System
The passenger information system (PIS) is designed as a modular system whose final appearance can be customized by adding and modifying individual components or sub-systems and by programming the functions specified in the project.
There are basic functional entities in AMiT’s PIS:
- IP Display System
 - IP Audio System
 - IP Surveillance System (CCTV)
 - IP Reservation System
 - Panel Computers (HMI)
 - Communication infrastructure (Ethernet, WTB, RS485, WiFi, GPRS)
 
All components use a single communication infrastructure (RS485, Ethernet) which provides maximum flexibility to the final solution. The entire information system provides the following:
- connection to the WTB train communication bus and/or Ethernet train backbone
 - GSM and WiFi data transmission, and GPS positioning
 - information from the train seat reservation system
 - information displaying on the interior and exterior LED and TFT display units
 - the diagnostics displaying of other technical equipment
 - passenger announcements
 - audio communication of on-board operational staff
 
The passenger information system meets all the requirements of current European directives and both UIC 176 and UIC 556 standards.
