  • Abstract
    This paper describes the use of new generation of LOGO! controllers and KNX devices in creating more comfortable, safe and secure automation systems for train passengers. These systems assure all the requirements for the passenger railway wagons and offer to the technicians a more user friendly interface accessible from the every point of the train. The communication between the automation cabinets and between the wagons is made on the KNX bus.
