scope:

This specification has been produced for implementation at new control centre schemes and may be considered for retrospective fitment at existing control centres that have a requirement for an automated route setting system.

Purpose

This document contains the system requirements for Automated Route Setting Systems (ARS) for use in conjunction with control systems that are of sufficient size to require an ARS function.

This document does not describe the operation of the control system and shall be viewed as a product specification for use when designing an ARS system for incorporation within a control system.
