The Virtual Cabinet

The Virtual Cabinet is a complete diagnostic and testing toolkit for all devices that communicate on the SDLC bus in the ATC or TS2 Cabinets. The Virtual Cabinet connects to a Windows based computer with a USB connection. By using an intuitive graphical software interface, The Virtual Cabinet can be configured to emulate a cabinet controller or the cabinet SIU/BIU devices.

The Virtual Cabinet can operate in four different modes (Requires separate SDLC cables and software. See "Accessories" and "Software & Firmware" tabs below):

1) TS2 Cabinet Emulator: Connects to SDLC Port 1 of a NEMA TS2 standard controller unit. The Virtual Cabinet emulates the remaining cabinet components. (SDLC cable has blue heat shrink tubing)

2) ATC Cabinet Emulator: Connects to SDLC Port C12S (SB#1) of an ATC 5301 standard controller unit. The Virtual Cabinet emulates the remaining cabinet components. (SDLC cable has green heat shrink tubing)

3) TS2 Controller Emulator: Connects to SDLC Port 1 of a BIU type device. The Virtual Cabinet emulates the controller. (SDLC cable has red heat shrink tubing)

4) ATC Controller Emulator: Connects to SDLC SB#1 of an SIU type device. The Virtual Cabinet emulates the controller. (SDLC cable has yellow heat shrink tubing)

Choose from included graphical intersection layouts, construct your own intersection or import a satellite/aerial view image and add signals. Add loops, calls, and train tracks with preempt and activate them to verify the sequence. Intersection layouts can be saved to recall later as needed.
